From 12.8 Seconds to 150ms: What Alpenglow Means for Payments | Anza CEO Brennan Watt

Anza CEO Brennan Watt on what Solana settling in 150 milliseconds means for developers:

"150 milliseconds.

I think we need to appreciate how fast that is, right? That's faster than the blink of an eye.

And I think it's a huge game changer when we talk about some of these use cases in financial markets.

It means a lightning fast checkout experience, which is a true differentiator for retailers and financial products.

These legacy systems, they really force developers to either show some spinning wheel or some progress bar...

Or it forces you to hide the fact that funds haven't actually settled, which makes building just more complicated, bug prone and slower.

And so we don't always know which financial products are going to take off.

But by making things faster and easier for developers, we just get more shots on goal and more chances for entrepreneurs to find PMF."
