SEC Lawsuit Triggers Major Decline in Blockchain Tokens

Over the past 24 hours, major blockchain tokens have experienced a significant drop of over 20%, following allegations by the SEC that 13 tokens are securities. Solana and Cardano saw the most significant losses, dropping up to 25% in a short period. Speculation suggests a major crypto fund may have offloaded its holdings during these illiquid market conditions.

The SEC's classification of these tokens as securities has generated uncertainty and caution within the crypto market, leading to a risk-off sentiment among investors and triggering a wave of selling pressure. The outcome of the SEC lawsuit and any subsequent regulatory actions will likely impact the future trajectory of major tokens.

State of Solana Q1 2024

Solana (SOL) is an integrated, open-source blockchain with the goal of synchronizing global information at the speed of light. Solana optimizes for latency and throughput, sacrificing some verifiability. It seeks to accomplish this through features such as its novel timestamp mechanism called Proof-of-History (PoH), block propagation protocol Turbine, and parallel transaction processing. Since mainnet launch in March 2020, several network upgrades have brought further network performance and resilience, including QUIC, stake-weighted Quality of Service (QoS), and local fee markets.

Solana’s Outage and Future — CoinShares’ Perspective

Recently Solana experienced its first outage in over 11 months. An infinite loop was propagated across the network’s validators due to a faulty implementation inside of the core software via the Berkley Packet Filter which is the mechanism to deploy, upgrade and execute programs on Solana. Block production halted, impeding the chain’s progress (in layman’s terms, it went offline). Validators then manually verified, inside of a Google Sheet, a snapshot of the last valid block. For the chain to restart, at least 80% of validators began running the patched software for blocks to be added to the chain.
