Lily Liu: Solana is Not Just a Technical Network, but a Maturing Global Capital and Application Infrastructure
In her opening speech at Breakpoint 2025, Lily Liu, Chair of the Solana Foundation, emphasized that Solana is not a single product or company, but a complete system serving different roles for various participants: for validators and core developers, it is a high-speed, low-cost network; for application builders, it is a technical platform supporting product operation; and for asset issuers and investors, Solana is evolving into a native on-chain capital market.
Lily pointed out that whether the Solana ecosystem can thrive long-term depends on the healthy development of three key layers: whether the network itself continues to become faster and cheaper, whether the application layer has a genuine business model, and whether the capital markets are efficient and scalable. Only when these three components are sustainable can Solana truly support global-scale applications and financial activities.
She stated that Solana is continuously pushing the boundaries of blockchain performance by increasing bandwidth, reducing latency, and optimizing infrastructure, preparing for the next stage of large-scale applications and financial scenarios.
