What is Solana
Solana is a public layer 1 blockchain for smart contracts, and SOL is its native coin. The project was conceived by Anatoly Yakovenko, a former Qualcomm engineer, who described its Proof of History technique in November 2017 and went on to co-found Solana Labs with Raj Gokal. Mainnet went live in March 2020. The ecosystem is supported by the Solana Foundation, a non-profit based in Zug, Switzerland.
The network runs on Proof of Stake: validators lock up SOL, and holders can delegate coins to them for a share of the rewards. Proof of History works as a shared clock: a continuous chain of hashes records the order of events, so validators spend less effort agreeing on timing. A new block is produced roughly every 0.4 seconds, and programs that do not touch the same data run in parallel. Fees are paid in SOL, and part of the base fee is burned. New SOL is issued as staking rewards on a schedule with gradually declining inflation, and there is no hard cap on supply. In 2025 validators voted to adopt Alpenglow, a new consensus protocol designed for faster block finality.
Solana hosts decentralized exchanges, lending protocols, NFTs, payment apps and many meme coins, and both USDC and USDT are issued on it. Unlike Ethereum, Solana scales as a single chain rather than through separate layer 2 networks, so all apps share one pool of liquidity. The trade-offs are demanding hardware for validators and a record of outages: between 2021 and 2024 the network halted block production several times.
What it’s used for
- paying fees on the Solana network
- staking: delegating SOL to validators for rewards
- trading on decentralized exchanges and using DeFi
- sending USDC and USDT on Solana
Risks
- The network has stopped several times: the September 2021 outage lasted about 17 hours, the February 2024 one about 5 hours.
- There is no maximum supply: new SOL is constantly issued as staking rewards, so holders who do not stake are gradually diluted.
- Launching a token on Solana is easy, so the ecosystem is full of short-lived meme coins and scam tokens.

What is Proof of History in Solana?
It is a way of keeping time inside the network: a node continuously computes a chain of hashes that shows the order in which events happened. Proof of History is not a consensus mechanism on its own; it helps Proof of Stake agree on blocks faster.
Why do I need SOL to send USDT or another token on Solana?
Fees on Solana are paid in SOL, so you cannot send a token without a small SOL balance. Each token you hold also sits in a separate token account that requires a small SOL deposit, which you get back when you close an empty account.
