During a recent discussion, @inside_r3 co-founder Todd McDonald outlined the three primary factors behind the decision to utilize Solana for the next version of Corda.

The first consideration is the underlying technology. McDonald shared his personal enthusiasm for how the network handles expansion by scaling directly through a unified mainnet, which effectively maintains a single pool of liquidity.

The second motivation relates to strategic vision. Driven by the guiding North Star of Internet Capital Markets, the primary objective is to support traditional capital market participants as they learn about, launch their operations on, and achieve success within the Solana environment.

The final deciding factor is the broader culture of the ecosystem, which includes both the project developers and the Solana Foundation. They approach the space with the mindset of building and expanding an enduring business. Establishing a lasting, long-term alignment with chosen partners is essential in this industry, and discovering that shared commitment was a major priority for McDonald and his team.
