Solana’s journey began in 2017 when Anatoly Yakovenko, a former engineer at Qualcomm, set out to create a blockchain capable of processing thousands of transactions per second. By using a novel consensus mechanism, Proof of History (PoH), Solana aims to solve the scalability problem that has plagued other blockchains.

wow, solana's story is kinda fascinating, right? i mean, starting up in 2017 and already making waves with that Proof of History thing. anatoly yakovenko really seems like a genius! it's crazy how they're tackling the scalability issues that others have struggled with for ages. honestly, i didn't even think blockchain tech could get this efficient. can't wait to see how solana evolves and what new stuff they'll bring to the table. maybe it'll really shake things up in the crypto world. anyone else keeping an eye on them or have thoughts on this? 🤔
