Solana

Protocolo P2P

A high-throughput Layer-1 blockchain combining Proof-of-History (a verifiable clock enabling faster consensus) with Proof-of-Stake. The original solana-labs/solana client repository was archived in 2024 in favor of Agave, maintained by Anza (a company spun out to steward core protocol development independent of Solana Labs).

Fundación

Detalles

Licencia Apache-2.0
Estado de Desarrollo 🟢 Activo
Propietario Anza (maintains the Agave validator client); Solana Foundation is the public non-profit umbrella for the ecosystem.
Órgano de Gobierno Solana Foundation (non-profit); Anza and Solana Labs both contribute core development but neither has unilateral authority over the protocol.
País Switzerland (Solana Foundation is Swiss-registered, consistent with the common Layer-1-foundation jurisdiction pattern)
Año de Inicio 2020
Stack Rust.
Financiamiento Solana Foundation grants; Anza is independently funded/operated as a company.

Protocolo P2P Atributos

Orígenes High-throughput Layer-1 blockchain, introducing Proof-of-History as a novel verifiable-delay-function-based clock to reduce consensus overhead.
Base de Datos N/A (account-based state model, not a conventional database)
Lenguaje de Consulta JSON-RPC.
Formatos de Datos Custom binary serialization (Borsh commonly used at the application layer).
Edición Colaborativa en Vivo N/A
Edición de Texto Enriquecido N/A
Soporte Móvil Via third-party wallet apps (Phantom, Solflare, etc.).
Soporte Web Extensive dApp ecosystem via browser wallet extensions and JSON-RPC.
Aplicaciones Nativas Validator/node software ships as native binaries (Agave, and the independent Firedancer client from Jump Crypto).
Términos Free, open-source; network fees paid to validators (notably low/sub-cent per transaction).
Fondos Solana Foundation's treasury is disclosed at a high level; Anza's funding as a company is separate/not fully public.
Basado En Novel design (Proof-of-History combined with PoS) — not built directly on a prior blockchain's codebase.
Arquitectura P2P Gossip-based validator network (Turbine block propagation protocol), leader-based block production rotating among staked validators.
Red de Superposición Global, permissionless validator set (subject to stake requirements).
Direccionamiento por Contenido No.
Local-First N/A
Cifrado de Extremo a Extremo (E2EE) N/A
Biblioteca de CRDTs N/A
Tolerancia a Fallos Bizantinos Yes — Tower BFT (a PoH-optimized PBFT variant).
Firma Ed25519.
Permisos Permissionless for transacting/deploying programs; validating requires staked SOL.
Compatibilidad con la Web Semántica No.
Contrato Inteligente Yes — "programs" (Solana's term for smart contracts), primarily written in Rust, executed in a sandboxed runtime (Sealevel, enabling parallel transaction execution).
Posición en la Pila del Protocolo Base-layer settlement + execution (Layer 1), positioned as a high-throughput alternative to Ethereum's model.
Incorporación de Activos/Valor Native (SOL) plus SPL tokens (this matrix's existing spl-token-program entry) for the broader token ecosystem.
Madurez del Protocolo / Estandarización Mature, high-usage mainnet since 2020; no formal standards body, de facto standard via adoption and the emergence of a second independent client (Firedancer).
