There’s a third validator coming online this year
@solana

With the purpose of improving solana throughout, it should lower block times by 50%
That will enable solana to perform trading as efficient as a centralized exchange
Bullish
We are soooo close. If 🔥💃 improves throughput,
@solana
can cut its block time to 200ms. That might be enough to make the spreads on clobs like open book as tight as Binance. That would be a watershed moment.

"Solana is expensive"
Running a solana full node for a whole month equal interacting with ETH for ~12 times
I’m sorry but $ETH is absolute trash compared to $SOL
$27.00 to delist a single NFT. You must be joking 🤡
You need to be a bajillionaire just to transact.
Honestly don’t see how Ethereum has a future.
