The Real Solana Killer? This New Blockchain Might Just Change Everything

By BreakdownFab | DecryptLab | 26 Jan 2025


I know, the term "Solana killer" gets thrown around a lot. But when someone with deep experience at Firedancer—a team that pushed the limits of blockchain performance—says they're building something new, it’s worth paying attention. Watch the video below that breaks it down for you 👇

Liam, aka @CantelopePeel, just announced UntoLabs, a new Layer-1 blockchain aiming to solve one of the biggest challenges in crypto: real-world scalability. After showcasing Firedancer’s power with 1 million TPS at Breakpoint 2024, Liam is now taking a clean-slate approach to reimagine blockchain architecture from the ground up.

This isn’t just another Solana clone. UntoLabs is stepping away from SVM-based chains to explore entirely fresh ideas for virtual machines, consensus, and more. The goal? A blockchain built for the complex and dynamic demands of real users and applications—not just theoretical benchmarks.

With tens of millions of daily active wallets expected in 2025, the crypto ecosystem desperately needs infrastructure that won’t crumble under pressure. Could UntoLabs be the one?

If their vision delivers, we might not just be looking at a "Solana killer"—this could redefine the performance ceiling for blockchains entirely.

Would you bet on them?
