Solana launches Alpenglow upgrade to speed transaction finality to 150 milliseconds

Solana has upgraded its mainnet with a new consensus protocol called Alpenglow, replacing the previous system to achieve faster transaction finality. The upgrade, launched on Nov. 6, aims to settle transactions in about 150 milliseconds, enhancing the speed and efficiency of the blockchain network. This change is significant for decentralized applications and crypto projects relying on Solana's live network, promising quicker transaction confirmation times.
