Solar Network Major Update

Solar Network (@SolarNetwork) is rolling out its biggest update yet, introducing EVM compatibility to its Solar Smart Chain, a Layer 1 blockchain forked from ARK in 2021. This opens the door for Ethereum-based dApps to run seamlessly, aiming to boost developer adoption and scalability. The update also launches Solar Card with IBAN accounts and physical cards, bridging crypto with real-world payments. Tymt v2.2.2, a Web3 game launcher, will enable full game monetization using SXP, Solar’s utility token. Plus, they’re burning 5% of foundation block rewards and Solar Card fees to reduce SXP’s supply—a move that could drive value through deflationary pressure [TradingView News, 2025-05-28].
