Solana: In August, the transaction volume reached 5 billion, and the Alpenglow upgrade is scheduled to launch in October

Solana's official disclosure data shows that the transaction volume in August reached 5 billion, surpassing the total transactions of all other blockchain networks, equivalent to processing over 100,000 transactions per minute, while maintaining transaction fees far lower than other public chains.

In addition, the Alpenglow upgrade, aimed at significantly improving network confirmation speed, is expected to launch in October this year, promising to reduce transaction confirmation time from about 12 seconds to 400 milliseconds.
