Solana: Short history and snapshots
Solana is a popular platform with a decentralized application (DAPP) built on blockchain ethereum, but with its own unique consensus algorithm called Proof of History (Poh). In this article, we will look closer to Genesis Solana, her early events and some historical snapshots that have shaped the project into what it is today.
Genesis and early days
Solana was released in August 2020 by the Solana Labs team, led by Alex de Vries. The initial focus of the platform consisted in creating a quick, scalable and safe blockchain to build decentralized applications. However, his early days were characterized by significant achievements that would ultimately define the project.
POH consensus algorithm
One of the key innovations that distinguish Solana from other blockchain platforms was the introduction of Proof of History (Poh). This consensus algorithm allows validations to create and solve mathematical puzzles to check transactions on the web. The goal is to prove that the transaction has been successfully made, while ensuring the integrity of the block.
Historical snapshots
Here are some of the key historical snapshots that have contributed to the Solan’s success:
* April 2020: Solana Labs announces its cooperation with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) team, enabling smooth interoperability between Solana and Ethereum.
* May 2020: Blockchain Solana is officially launched, with a fully functional network of nodes and validators.
* June 2020:*
* July 2020:
Solana Labs band announces plans to integrate the POH algorithm Platform with Blockchain Ethereum, paving the way to decentralized applications (DAPPS) built on Solan.
Google Bigtable integration
One noteworthy function introduced in June 2021 is the integration of the long -term Solan transaction history from Google Bigtable. This allows users to view and manage their long -term transactions in a centralized database, providing an additional layer of security and transparency of the platform.
Application
Solana has gone through a long way from the genesis in August 2020. From her early development to the current status as one of the most promising decentralized application platforms on the market, the POH Solana consensus algorithm and Google Bigtable integration distinguished him from other blockchain projects. Because the Solana ecosystem is constantly growing and evolving, it will be exciting to see what new innovations and functions of this platform they prepare for their users.
