The upgrade introduces a new consensual protocol designed to considerably improve the purpose of transactions and network efficiency. In the heart of Alpenglow are two new components, Votor and Rotor, which will replace the existing Solana systems, the proof of history and the tower.

Currently, time transactions for proof of history to preserve their order without slowing down the network, while Towerbft manages the voting process among the validators. Alpenglow’s improvements will revise the two systems.
Votor will reduce the purposes of transactions of more than 12 seconds to around 150 milliseconds, providing an almost instant confirmation for users. The rotor, planned for subsequent deployment, will minimize data transfers between validators, a crucial improvement for high -demand applications such as decentralized finance (Challenge) And games based on blockchain.
With secure approval, Solana is now preparing to implement the upgrade, a milestone that should unlock more speed, resilience and scalability through its ecosystem.
