Solana is a high-throughput Layer 1 blockchain launched in March 2020 by Solana Labs. It innovates with a hybrid Proof-of-History (PoH) timestamping layer coupled with Proof-of-Stake (PoS) for validator selection, achieving sub-second block times and massive scalability. The network processes up to 65,000 TPS in optimal conditions, with real-world sustained throughput around 700 TPS, and maintains transaction fees at just $0.0001–$0.0025 per tx. SOL, the native token, is used for gas, staking, and governance, underpinning a rapidly growing DeFi and NFT ecosystem.
✅ Consensus: Proof-of-History for cryptographic timestamps + Proof-of-Stake for block validation
✅ Block time: ~0.4–0.6 seconds average, enabling near-instant throughput
✅ Throughput: up to 65,000 TPS theoretical peak; ~700 TPS sustained in practice
✅ Transaction fees: typically $0.0001–$0.0025 per tx; prioritization fees up to $0.0024–$0.048
✅ SOL utility: used for gas, staking yields (~6–8% APY), and on-chain governance
