Solayer Network Overview

Solayer Chain is a hardware-accelerated blockchain targeting 1M+ TPS with low latency. Devnet is currently running at 340k+ TPS, increasing as we resolve performance bottlenecks.
As we’re in the internal devnet phase, the network and block explorer data may be intermittently unstable. The blockchain state might be reset from time to time due to performance upgrades.

Solayer Chain

Solayer Chain delivers:
  • High Throughput: Up to 1M+ TPS
  • Low Latency: Transaction finality in milliseconds
  • Solana VM Compatibility: Deploy existing Solana programs with minimal changes
  • Familiar Tooling: Works with standard Solana development tools

Solana Compatibility

Solayer Chain provides full compatibility with the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), allowing developers to:
  • Deploy existing Solana programs with minimal to no code changes
  • Use familiar Solana development tools and libraries
  • Apply existing knowledge of Solana programming patterns
Existing Solana programs can be deployed to Solayer Chain with little to no modification.

Getting Started with the Solayer Chain Devnet

Our developer network (Devnet) provides a sandboxed environment to build and test applications before deploying to testnet and mainnet.

RPC Endpoints

Mainnet RPC Endpoint

For production applications, connect to Solayer Mainnet:
https://mainnet-rpc.solayer.org

Devnet RPC Endpoint (For Testing and Development)

For testing and development purposes, connect to the Solayer Chain Devnet using our public RPC endpoint:
https://devnet-rpc.solayer.org
The devnet RPC endpoint is specifically for devnet and testing purposes only. Use the mainnet RPC endpoint for production applications.
You can use these endpoints with standard Solana tooling, including:
  • Solana CLI
  • Web3.js
  • Anchor
  • And other Solana SDK libraries

Configuration & setting up your local environment

To configure your Solana CLI for Solayer Chain Mainnet:
solana config set --url https://mainnet-rpc.solayer.org
To configure your Solana CLI for Solayer Chain DevNet (for testing):
solana config set --url https://devnet-rpc.solayer.org

Next Steps

  • Explore the DevNet with our block explorer
  • Set up your local development environment
  • Deploy your first program to Solayer Chain
  • Learn about Solayer’s unique features and optimizations

Resource Limits

Devnet is designed for testing and development purposes. While it mirrors the capabilities of our mainnet, it may have certain resource and performance limitations especially as we hyperscale the SVM to 1M+ TPS.
