Solana Alpenglow is now live on mainnet. What it actually does: - Kills TowerBFT and slashes finality from ~12.8s to ~150–200ms - Replaces on-chain vote transactions with direct BLS voting (Votor) - Frees up massive block space previously eaten up by validator vote spam - Gives true irreversible, Web2-level settlement for trading and payments TLDR: Solana was fast, now it has afterburners. Plus validators save ~60% on vote fees, and less block congestion means lower priority fee spikes during hype runs. Send it.
