Solana’s Alpenglow Upgrade Targets 150-Millisecond Finality
Edited by Steinar Vigdel Kolnes, Editor, Oslo
Solana’s Alpenglow upgrade is expected next week, aiming to cut transaction finality from 12.8 seconds to roughly 150 milliseconds, according to Decrypt.
Solana is preparing for the arrival of Alpenglow next week, according to Decrypt. The upgrade is intended to shorten the time transactions take to reach finality.
The target is approximately 150 milliseconds, compared with the current 12.8 seconds. That would make finality about 85 times faster if achieved.
The figures describe a planned improvement rather than a confirmed result. Faster finality concerns how quickly transactions become settled, not necessarily how many the network can process.
