Solana Labs’ creator and CEO, Anatoly Yakovenko, has brushed down suggestions that a heavy validator message load and its on-chain voting system are to blame for the network disruptions. According to him, the votes help to simultaneously give an “extraordinary level of security, great throughput, and affordable prices.”
According to DBCryptoX, validator messages and on-chain votes make approximately 90–95 percent of transactions on Solana, which are clogging the network. Additionally, they assert that because validators must get together and reach a consensus utilizing off-chain methods, network outages last for 20 hours. Several commenters, however, reject their theory. Cointelegraph’s request for comment from Solana Labs has not received a response.
