The institutions that spent a decade studying blockchain made their decision.
And they chose @Solana.
Massive @Solana upgrade just dropped!
@anza_xyz launch of P-Token means:
• Token instructions 96% cheaper
• Frees 12-13% more block space network-wide
• Same program ID = full backward compatibility
• Lets you do multiple token actions at once to save even more
Same roads, same rules, but now suddenly a lot more traffic can flow smoothly.
Huge for scaling. Big win for Solana 🔥
🚨ANNOUNCEMENT
SOL Strategies has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Darklake Labs, bringing zero-knowledge privacy tech in-house to power more secure, private and institution ready on-chain finance.
A major milestone in our journey to build on Solana. 🧵
As Solana becomes the backbone for global on-chain markets...

Validator operators become the infrastructure layer of that economy. Quietly one of the most important roles in the ecosystem. 🌐
We are excited to partner with @pyefinance to help shape the next generation of staking on Solana. 🥧
Programmable lockups, stake trading, and validator DeFi.

🚨 Introducing STKESOL: SOL Strategies’ Liquid Staking Token (LST) on @Solana!
Already at 545K SOL (~$70M) in TVL, STKESOL allows you to earn diversified staking rewards while maintaining full liquidity. Boost your yield further by providing liquidity, borrow against your STKESOL, and benefit from potential tax advantages (subject to jurisdiction; not financial advice).
By using STKESOL, your SOL is automatically staked across dozens of validators, supporting the entire Solana network!

1/ Two years ago, we set out to build a full node that could verify Solana Mainnet on modest hardware and home internet, making decentralization accessible.
Today we're releasing the Alpha version of Mithril, our Solana full node client in @golang, and it can do exactly that.
Participation is easy. Contribution is intentional.
At SOL Strategies we develop and maintain open-source tools to support and enhance the @solana ecosystem because strong networks are built, not just backed. 🛠️
