Building a Faster Future for Solana in Asia

Solana Company is launching a new project called the “Pacific Backbone” to create a high‑speed network across key Asian cities. The plan links Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore and Hong Kong with low‑latency connections that will help Solana users stake tokens, validate transactions and trade quickly. The goal is to meet the growing demand from banks, traders and other institutions that are increasingly interested in crypto. By offering a reliable and fast infrastructure, Solana hopes to attract more market makers and high‑frequency traders. The company says the construction will start right away, with upgrades and new products coming in the next year or so. Planned additions include DeFi tools, liquid staking options and automated market makers designed for traditional finance firms.CEO Joseph Chee says the expansion prepares Solana for its “next super cycle. ” The project aims to cut dependence on outside service providers, lower latency and provide a compliant platform that satisfies regulated markets. Solana already processes over 3, 500 transactions per second and has millions of active wallets. Solana Company holds about 2. 3 million SOL, worth more than $180 million, making it the second‑largest treasury holder on the network. Shares of Solana Company fell 13. 3 % in today’s session to $1. 76, while the overall crypto market is down and Bitcoin has dropped over 4 %.
