5 Reasons Why Solana Is Currently the Most Popular Blockchain

High transaction speed and scalability: Solana can process over 65,000 transactions per second (TPS), making it one of the fastest and most efficient blockchain networks

Low transaction fees: Solana's high speed and scalability also result in low transaction fees, which are typically less than a cent per transaction
