Co-founder of Solana Anatoly Yakovenko has proposed the concept of a meta-blockchain for the company. He argues that the meta blockchain will post information about each chain, such as Ethereum, Celestia or Solana, and use a specific rule to merge data from all chains in a single order history.
The entrepreneur noted that the blockchain would also have apps or users choose the cheapest data availability layer instead of holding on to just one. Yakovenko said that making data availability cheap makes everything cheap, where bandwidth is emphasized as the most important limitation. He believes that it could be an important development for rollups, aggregators or an app that deals with many cross-chain activities.
There should be a meta blockchain. Post data everywhere, Ethereum, Celestia, Solana and use a specific rule to merge data from all chains in a single order. This could use the Meta chain the cheapest DA offer.

He said that it can publish data about different block chains, including on Ethereum, Celestia and Solana, and use a specific rule to merge the data from all chains in a single order.
Anatoly believes that it would enable the meta chain to use the cheapest currently available DA offer. He acknowledged that Metatx would include the last observed block of ETH and Celestia on Solana, which guarantees consistent sequencing. According to him, the data would then be merged into a single series using specific rules to use the most cost -effective availability services for data.
“A simple way to do this would be that the TX refers to the latest block heads of the potential da layers. So Metatx that is placed on Solana would contain the last observed block of ETH and Celestia. This would mean that it is guaranteed to be ordered after Eth and Celestia TXS.”

A developer called Belac responded with his way to the proposed blockchain. He wondered if the Meta Chain was a P2P node/seeker network, such as a torrent system that stores multiple chain data in chunks, and earning people by sowing historic blocks. He argued whether the history problem could solve and make the whole thing of the community.
Toly did not really feel that direction and replied that it was completely different from what he suggested. He also added that the point is to use only a globally agreed merger rule and not to carry out a network alone. Yakovenko acknowledged that the Meta Blockchain DEVS will help to write, post everywhere and still get a single clean history, while choosing which chain currently has the best data agreement.
Projects are already experimenting with mix-and-match setups in today’s modular blockchain world, including one for implementation, a different data and perhaps even another for consensus.
Toly emphasizes flexibility in L1 protocols
There is no reason to build an L2.
L1s can be faster, cheaper and safer.
They are not delayed by an icy moving stack of the L1 data availability, or must endanger the security with complex fraud tickets and multisigs upgrades. https://t.co/ov3yafz9U4

Co-founder of Solana acknowledged that the underlying layer 1 (L1) protocols must be sufficiently flexible to enable applications to compete in their business activities. He argued that they will pursue such strategies if applications can stimulate business growth through differentiated priorities.
Toly also noted that if an L1 hinders their growth, they will probably migrate it. He said that the concept is simple, adding that the prevention of applications to try out ideas that, according to them, can help growth, even if they are considered bad, encourage them to leave the L1.
Data on chains from Nansen showed that Solana had the highest number of active addresses under public block chains last week, with 24.26 million. Onchain -Lens also reported on Monday that a large whale or institution had not stacked 103,040.6 Sol, with a value of $ 17.7 million, after a month of rest. According to the analysis company, the whale still retains a considerable company of 3,369,634 SOL, worth around $ 584.09 million.
Solana is at the time of publication exchange Hands for $ 171.57, a decrease of 3.89% in the last 24 hours. The digital active has risen by 88% in four weeks from less than $ 100 to now over $ 170.
