**[Solana](https://talk.markets/t/solana-network-cheatsheet/56?silent=true)** :sol: is a **Layer 1 blockchain** designed for high performance and low-cost transactions, using a unique **Proof of History (PoH)** combined with **Proof of Stake (PoS)**. It achieves speeds of up to 65,000 transactions per second, low latency, and minimal fees, making it ideal for decentralised applications (dApps) and decentralised finance (DeFi) services that require rapid, secure, and scalable solutions.
