- Solana developers have released a new update to tackle the ongoing network congestion issues.
Solana developers have announced a new update with significant enhancements that will “help alleviate the ongoing congestion” on the network.
Congestion issues plagued Solana in recent months, with the meme coin frenzy driving up user activity and demand for the network.
On April 8, the network’s congestion reached a critical point, with on-chain data revealing that 70% of non-voting transactions were delayed or failed.

The group urged validators to upgrade “when there’s less than 5% delinquent stake” and ensure they have enough time to monitor their nodes after upgrading.
In a separate post, Rex St. John, the head of developer relations at Anza, said the Monday release contained the first round of Solana mainnet congestion updates that “everyone has been waiting for.”
This contains the first round of @solana mainnet congestion updates which everyone has been waiting for from @anza_xyz. There are additional updates coming.
It is important to note this is NOT v1.18, which will have further improvements. https://t.co/gx7ZG6R5GI pic.twitter.com/tkm9DqgxDZ
