Solana's Alpenglow upgrade nears mainnet launch
- —The Alpenglow mainnet launch is scheduled for September 18
- —Votor will replace TowerBFT after the upgrade is activated
- —The target is 25% of mainnet stake on Agave v4.3
- —The upgrade aims to improve Solana network efficiency
Why it matters: The upgrade's success would strengthen Solana's position in L1 competition, while delays or a stake shortfall could trigger SOL volatility.
