Solana raises per-block compute limit to 100M CU, activates 4096-byte transaction format
- —Per-block compute limit rose from 60M to 100M CU, block capacity up 66%
- —v1 format activated Sept 15, raising max transaction size from 1232 to 4096 bytes
- —SOL-holding wallets reached 8.38 million, up 20.5% quarter-on-quarter
- —Stablecoin wallets hit 13.07 million, up 16%; on-chain card payments totaled $262.7 million
Why it matters: Higher block capacity reduces congestion risk, but actual transaction growth still hinges on resolving hot-account bottlenecks.
