Delegated Proof-of-Stake protocol Solana was established in late 2017 by former engineers from Qualcomm, Intel and Dropbox. The goal of Solana is to achieve scale without compromising decentralization or security. In order to overcome the issue of time in distributed networks, Solana has developed a clock called Proof-of-History (PoH), which is a decentralized clock.
With Verifiable Delay Functions, PoH enables each node to produce its own SHA256-based timestamps. This reduces the necessity for broadcasting timestamps throughout the network, hence increasing network efficiency. On the Solana blockchain, SOL serves as the native token.
An autonomous board governs the Swiss Foundation, which holds the community tokens. Tokens in this pool are utilized for bounty programs, rewards, marketing, and grant applications. Solana’s aim is to assist all high-growth and high-frequency blockchain applications, and to democratize the world’s financial institutions.
