Solayer Unveils ‘InfiniSVM’ Blockchain

Solana-based staking protocol Solayer recently unveiled its InfiniSVM blockchain.

Background

• In the most basic essence, InfiniSVM is a hardware-accelerated Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) blockchain
• SVM, in hindsight, is the software infra on the Solana blockchain that takes care of thousands of transactions every second
• It sticks to the parallel processing model for dApps
• For context, EVMs contrastingly use the sequential processing model
• InfiniSVM is set to use a hybrid “proof of assigned stake” consensus mechanism

Why should you pay attention?

• According to the litepaper, when launched, InfiniSVM will dynamically scale to meet application demands
• In this process, it will maintain a transaction confirmation time of merely one millisecond
• InfiniSVM will also support a throughput of up to 100 Gbps
• Solayer is also looking to integrate in-house yield-bearing assets like sSOL and sUSD into InfiniSVM
• Users can stake and restake them on the network

Who said what?

• The team called this blockchain “the grand finale” of their vision
• They asserted,

“We envision a world where everyone can play Minecraft, stream 8K videos, and trade at lightspeed fully on Solayer chain. 2025 is going to be very, very fast”

Zooming out

• Solayer also unveiled a non-profit foundation recently
• A governance token [LAYER] is also soon expected to be rolled out
