Solana Rallies on Alpenglow Upgrade and Record ETF Inflows
- —Alpenglow swaps TowerBFT for Votor, cutting finality to about 150 ms from 12.8 seconds
- —Network fault tolerance threshold rises to 40% of staked validators from 33%
- —US Solana ETFs posted $188.21 million in weekly inflows, a record since launch
- —Bitwise's BSOL led with $128.46 million; 30-day inflows reached $447.7 million
Why it matters: Faster finality and lower validator costs improve Solana's fundamentals, while record ETF inflows signal accelerating institutional demand for SOL.
