Solana, launched in 2020 by Anatoly Yakovenko, is an independent Layer 1 blockchain based on a unique consensus mechanism called Proof of History, which lets it deliver unprecedented transaction speed and near-zero fees. The coin is widely regarded as Ethereum's major rival (an "Ethereum killer") for solving the scaling problem, and it is used to pay network fees, stake, and run complex smart contracts. Solana's ecosystem is now a leader in decentralised finance (DeFi), NFT platforms, and community tokens (meme coins).
Solana combines Proof of Stake with Proof of History (PoH) consensus to order transactions, enabling throughput of thousands of transactions per second with sub-cent fees.
Solana was founded in 2017 by Anatoly Yakovenko alongside key engineers formerly from Qualcomm and Dropbox.
