What is Solana?
Founded in 2017, Solana (SOL) is a high-performance blockchain designed to provide fast, secure, and scalable decentralized applications (dApps). Unlike traditional blockchain networks, Solana utilizes a unique Proof of History (PoH) consensus mechanism combined with Proof of Stake (PoS) to process transactions efficiently. This innovative approach allows Solana to achieve lightning-fast transactions, with speeds of up to 65,000 transactions per second (TPS), making it one of the fastest blockchain networks available. Solana is widely used in DeFi, NFTs, and Web3 applications, attracting developers and institutions looking for a high-speed, low cost blockchain solution.
Buying Example
- Example Price: SOL: $50
- Let’s say you would like to buy $5,000 worth of Solana.
- Our Fees for a $5,000 Transaction is 5%.
- $5,000 x 0.95 = $4,750
- In turn, you would receive $4,750 worth of Solana. If the price is $50 at the time of
purchase, you would receive 95 SOL.
Selling Example
- Example Price: SOL: $50
- Let’s say you would like to sell 100 Solana.
- The example price is $50 per SOL. 100 SOL would equal $5,000. Our Fees for a $5,000 Transaction is 5%.
$5,000 x 0.95 = $4,750 - In turn, you would receive $4,750 in cash if the price of Solana is $50 at the time of the
transaction.
