Tech-savvy Solana is at it again, this time aiming to reduce block finality to 150 milliseconds. Don't underestimate this number; it's almost as fast as the response speed of traditional centralized systems.
The SIMD-326 proposal is currently up for voting, and currently has a clear majority of votes in favor. Although the overall participation rate is less than 10%, the sentiment is clear. For applications that require high-frequency interactions, such as decentralized exchanges (DEXs), games, and high-frequency trading, shorter confirmation times mean a better user experience.
Imagine trading on a DEX with a final confirmation time of 150 milliseconds. What would that experience be like? This isn't just a technical improvement; it's a revolutionary improvement in user experience.
In DeFi, faster confirmations can effectively prevent MEV attacks and improve transaction fairness. For Web3 games and social applications, near-instant feedback is essential for achieving large-scale user adoption.
This demonstrates Solana's confidence in its technological path and intensifies competition with other high-performance L1 and L2 platforms. In the public chain war, performance has always been one of the most core competitive advantages. Solana's upgrade may redefine industry standards.
