ChainCatcher report: According to the official announcement from Akash Network, the decentralized cloud computing network Akash has launched Governance Proposal #346, proposing to migrate the network from its Cosmos sovereign chain, akashnet-2, to the Solana mainnet. Voting began on October 26 at 23:02 Beijing Time and will end on November 2 at 23:02 Beijing Time, with approximately 98.29% of votes in favor. According to the proposal, if approved and following the completion of token and migration portal audits (expected to take 2–3 weeks), AKT will be launched on Solana as an SPL token at a 1:1 ratio, retaining its ticker symbol. A one-way migration portal will remain open for two years; AKT tokens currently staked must first be unstaked (a 21-day period) before migration. This proposal does not set a switch date; a separate switch proposal will be required to initiate market migration. Akash stated that the primary reasons for choosing Solana include lower operational costs under load, the absence of a single operator, and the concentration of the DePIN ecosystem.
