Solaris is a blockchain platform offering tools for decentralized application development utilizing widely popular Microsoft technologies of C# using .NET Core platform. Solaris is powered by XLR, the native coin on the Solaris blockchain.
The Solaris Full Node uses the proven security consensus of Bitcoin, coupled with modern blockchain advancements, sleek interface and built on a modern stack of technologies.
Solaris is closely linked to Txbit exchange, with built in data stream in wallet and soon an integrated trading terminal in the Solaris Core Wallet supporting XLR, BTC and STRAT.
Solaris uses a Proof of Stake consensus mechanism, which is an energy efficient method of securing the network and allows coin holders to participate and get rewarded for staking their coins.
The Solaris Core supports Cold Staking, Cold Staking is a safe way to stake coins while they are held in an offline wallet.
Solaris Blockchain is optimized for fast transactions and a high bandwidth capacity with only a 60 second block time.
Solaris is always looking for alternatives to a variety of financial services that are available today. A good example is Solaris Savings, that enables holders of Solaris to lock their funds on a centralized savings account and earn great interests. This is what we call a CeFi (centralized finance) service.
The cryptocurrency market is a very fast-moving market where we think that maintaining a long-term roadmap is not realistic. We must be able to respond immediately to new developments in the market and not be constrained by a roadmap.
Solaris has gone through all kind of market conditions: bull and bear markets, crypto winter. Surviving in the bear market is mainly a matter of sticking to our believes and continuing to develop while keeping track of the market. We see many projects with a comprehensive roadmap, but never really reach all their targets. The main problem is that they are making long term plans in their roadmap in a market that moves so fast that what looks like a good idea today, could be obsolete tomorrow. Solaris stands for an honest project with real and hardworking people that actually deliver.
