During the pre-sale of Soon NFT, I even made some purchases, but I didn't expect TGE to be activated by both Korean companies Taking advantage of Soon's high-profile TGE incident, I would like to share my opinion on Solana. From a technical perspective, it is truly 'terrifyingly strong' Because I used to work in network engineering, I am sensitive to the optimization of Infra or Layer1 projects. Now, looking at Solana's optimization in all aspects, it has almost reached the extreme The client - @ jump_fireDancer - uses a Tile Architect, where each Tile corresponds to a specific task (Net, Verify, Bank, blah blah) and is bound to a specific thread and CPU core. Simply put, it modularizes and parallelizes the internal tasks of the client, which is much faster Consensus - @ anza_xyz - Just released a new Alpenglow consensus protocol yesterday, replacing the already fast Tower BFT consensus and data propagation Turbine protocol with the faster consensus Votor and faster propagation Rotor, which are much faster. The white paper is still under review Network - @ doublezero - A project that optimizes latency (hops) and bandwidth using dedicated fiber optics and submarine cables. My expertise lies in this field, and I eagerly searched for it when I first saw it last year. However, Solana's core circle couldn't fit in at all- Hardware - @ solayer_1abs - unloads the core processes of transaction sorting, scheduling, storage, etc. through specialized hardware circuits (FPGA), which feels a bit like ZK hardware acceleration back then, but it is uncertain whether their specialized SVM is compatible with the current Layer 1 SVM. I have asked the project team but have not received a response yet Level 2- Today's protagonist @ soon_svm - You can basically understand it as the Op Stack on the ETH side, so is the SVM Stack. There is also one that I am personally looking forward to, @ magicblock. Their Ephedral Rollup design is somewhat similar to the newly proposed Native Rollup on the ETH side In short, almost all the optimizations that can be thought of have been fully implemented by Solana official or various ecological projects. How can Solana/SVM lose? How did you lose?? The final hope for engineering optimization on the ETH/EVM side depends on the performance of the twin stars @ monad_xyz and @ megaeth_1abs. Please, both of you! 🙏
