⛰️ Vote transactions: 0
⛰️ Finality: 150ms
⛰️ TowerBFT: Eliminated
This is a massive infrastructure upgrade. Zero vote transactions means cleaner throughput, 150ms finality is borderline CEX-level speed, and ditching TowerBFT removes legacy consensus overhead.
If you're building on $SOL or trading infra plays, this matters. Faster finality = better UX for DeFi, better arb execution, tighter spreads.
Not just hype—this is the kind of backend work that separates chains that scale from chains that stall.
