SOL, Solana’s native asset, is now natively multichain on Avalanche powered by Wormhole Native Token Transfers (NTT). This integration preserves SOL’s core functionalities while unlocking access to Avalanche’s high-performance subnets and expanding DeFi ecosystem.
What Is Solana and SOL?
Solana is a high-performance blockchain achieving thousands of transactions per second through its hybrid Proof of History (PoH) and Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus. This architecture enables sub-second finality, making it a top choice for DeFi, NFTs, and scalable dApps.
SOL powers Solana’s network operations, including:
- Transaction processing
- Consensus participation
- Economic security via time-based staking
SOL’s integration with PoH creates temporal economic security, where validators must stake SOL to participate in consensus—enabling Solana’s unmatched speed.
What Is Wormhole NTT?
Wormhole’s Native Token Transfers (NTT) is an open framework for cross-chain token transfers that preserves native properties. Leading projects like Lido, JitoSOL, and ether.fi already use NTT, demonstrating its reliability.
