Glossary / Solana (SOL)

Solana (SOL)

Solana is a fast, low-fee blockchain that confirms transactions in well under a second. SOL pays its fees and secures the network through staking.

Why it matters

Low fees make Solana the busiest chain for new token launches and memecoins, which also means more scams to watch for.

Scan new tokens for risk
