SOL is Now Available to Trade P2P on CryptoLocally!
At CryptoLocally, we are excited to announce that Solana (SOL) — the ultra-fast and censorship-resistant blockchain is now available to trade P2P on our fully decentralised platform. We continue to strive for our mission to offer the largest selection of P2P trading in crypto with a seamless trading experience for our users. Of course, this is one of many listings that will come in 2021.
What is SOL?
Solana is a highly functional open-source project that banks on blockchain technology’s permissionless nature to provide decentralised finance (DeFi) solutions. While the idea and initial work on the project began in 2017, Solana was officially launched in March 2020 by the Solana Foundation with headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.
What makes SOL unique when compared to others?
Bitcoin is a first-generation cryptocurrency that operates on a proof of work model. This model requires extensive computing power in order for blocks to be confirmed. Over the years the amount of electricity required to make this block confirmation has increased greatly and also the computing power as well, making mining somewhat difficult and also nearly impossible for your everyday kind of guy to operate.
SOL operates a proof of history (POH) network which allows block confirmation to be as easy as possible, fees paid are near to zero and can be compared to the likes of TRX, EOS, and others. It creates easy scalability of assets and allows for easy building of DApps (Decentralised Applications).
The Solana team hails from some of the best tech industries around the world and coming together, they were able to create a futuristic project which would aid in the onboarding of new developers to the crypto space by providing tools needed to help create DApps the easy way.
