BlockBeats News, December 11th, the Co-Founder and CIO of Bitwise stated at the Solana Breakpoint Conference that, compared to networks like Ethereum, applications on Solana truly leverage the final 1% of performance, providing users with the next marginal liquidity and scalability.
In many blockchains, running a node is simply “download software, double click to start,” and then it doesn’t make much difference to the network or what applications users can build based on how much or how little you stake. However, in Solana, the application landscape changes daily, with the protocol layer, performance, and capacity all rapidly iterating, and node performance directly determining the ceiling.
It is for this reason that we are particularly concerned: as this product (referring to staking ETFs/trusts) locks more and more SOL and gains more weight, the ecosystem, developers, users, and even the entire community must feel that its scale expansion will not “crush” the market structure or ecosystem, but rather make the network more stable, more reliable, and more capable of withstanding the next wave of innovation.
