Solar is a community-run, fully decentralized project. Its Project Leader is Nayiem Willems. The Solar mainnet launched in March 2022 with SXP as its native coin. The Solar blockchain is very fast: processing a transaction only takes 8 seconds. Solar uses the DPoS (Delegated Proof of Stake) consensus model, secured by 53 elected block producers. Block producers are responsible for maintaining the blockchain by creating and witnessing blocks, validating transactions, and voting on governance issues.SXP holders can vote for Solar block producers using the Solar Desktop Wallet. Solar block producers may distribute a share of block rewards to their voters. Once you have voted, you can always change your vote. Your SXP is not locked. For example, If you are not satisfied with your chosen block producer, you can transfer your vote to another block producer or producers. Each SXP equals one vote, so the more coins in your wallet, the more weight your vote carries. Adding SXP to an already voting wallet increases its vote weight. The Solar Blockchain Foundation is a non-profit organisation established in Estonia that focuses on creating a blockchain ecosystem with open-source developers and community involvement. The Solar Foundation aims to provide financial and technical support to projects and entities within the greater Solar community to accelerate its growth.
