Solana Aims To Be the Apple of Crypto With a Focus on User Experience and Performance

While some crypto companies are partnering with big brands to gain mainstream adoption, Solana is focused on its own development and not relying on such partnerships. Solana, a layer-1 blockchain launched in 2020, is the eighth largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, excluding stablecoins. Co-founder Raj Gokal believes Solana has the potential to be the Apple of crypto, with a focus on user experience and performance. Solana's core engineering and ecosystem are dedicated to creating a network that feels like the regular internet, while also offering accessibility through its web3-focused Android smartphone, Saga.

  • Solana Foundation Strategy Director: On-chain congestion stems from a known bottleneck in the QUIC protocol implementation

    Austin Federa, the strategic director of the Solana Foundation, outlined the recent congestion issues on the Solana chain on the X platform. He stated that these issues stem from the implementation of the QUIC protocol and can be attributed to a known bottleneck issue. The solution is already on the roadmap. The main reason may be that the demand for Solana has increased at such a fast pace that within a few days, the problem went from "sufficient but needs improvement" to "insufficient." Austin Federa summarized that this issue is simply technical debt, a network stack that will almost certainly need to be completely rewritten later this year, while balancing important maintenance/improvement work.
