Solana’s 150-millisecond settlement upgrade reaches second public test network

60-second summary

Solana’s 150‑millisecond settlement upgrade enters its second public test network, with Alpenglow now operating on both testnets to let developers validate software before the mainnet transition; the faster finality promises reduced latency for DeFi and NFT applications, and traders anticipate heightened network competitiveness that could attract liquidity and boost SOL’s market positioning.

Alpenglow is running on both public test networks, giving application teams a place to check their software before the live blockchain switches.
