From the journal
Recent articles on the mechanics that shape everyday use of the Solana network.
Understanding Transaction Fees on Solana
Why Solana fees are usually tiny, when they rise, and how priority fees change confirmation speed during busy periods.
A Primer on Proof-of-History
How Solana creates a verifiable time sequence before validators reach consensus — and why that ordering step matters for throughput.
What readers say
After the wallet security workshop I finally understood why my seed phrase backup mattered more than any app feature. The session was paced well, though I wished we had ten more minutes on multisig setups.— Helen M., Edinburgh · Wallet Security Workshop
The mechanics deep-dive clarified fee prioritisation in a way no documentation had. I walked away with notes I still reference when explaining Solana to colleagues.— James T., Manchester · Mechanics Deep-Dive Session
