How Solana Processes Transactions — And How to Make Them Faster

How Solana Processes Transactions — And How to Make Them Faster

Short summary

Solana uses Stake-Weighted Quality of Service (QoS) to prioritize transactions from high-stake validators. Most users send through standard RPC endpoints competing for lower-priority capacity; landing services like Lunar Lander and Astralane route through stake-backed paths for faster, more reliable execution. The optimal strategy combines landing services for routing optimization with reasonable priority fees for validator incentive.

  • Solana prioritizes transactions based on stake-weighted Quality of Service (QoS)
  • Landing services route transactions through stake-backed paths to avoid congested RPC queues
  • Optimal strategy combines landing services for routing with priority fees for validator incentive
