Tokens in Q1 2019 - Presale interest: solana.io/presale.html


:information_source: BACKGROUND:
Solana is the fastest blockchain in the world at 710k transactions per second. It achieves this by encoding passage of time as data. The company is based in San Francisco, USA.

We have a testnet currently performing at 250k TPS, peaking at 400k TPS. Our roadmap is on our website.
• June - Testnet 2.0 and public demo
• September - Public testnet
• Q4 2018 - Mainnet launch
• Q1 2019 - Token Generation Event (TGE)

Solana will be a Proof of Stake (PoS) network, and we will use Proof of History (PoH) as our scaling solution (not sharding). Solana will have smart contract capability and will likely begin by supporting Solidity and JS, and later move toward a safer, established contract language that caters to our high-throughput pipeline.

    Here are three Solana presentation videos. Solana is a new name for what the team was building as Loom (loomprotocol.com completely unrelated to loomx.io or LoomNetwork), in case you're wondering why the old brand is being referred to in these videos.
