Blockchains: Ethereum vs Solana vs Avalanche vs MultiversX (Elrond). What are the differences?
With the introduction of new and advanced blockchain platforms in the Web 3.0 scene, the narrative around Ethereum has slowly shifted towards its younger “Ethereum Alternatives”. Solana, Avalanche, and MultiversX (former Elrond) are some of the crypto blockchains that are given this terminology, as they share similar features but are comparatively cheaper and better than Ethereum.

Solana Foundation just held the first-ever core dev community call with engineering teams from across the ecosystem, here's what was discussed!
Some topics that may be discussed in the next call include @ShinobiSystems Timely Vote Credits proposal (https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/master/docs/src/proposals/timely-vote-credits.md), @elusivprivacy new built-in cryptographic operations to accelerate ZK verification (for privacy tech), and feature activation coordination standards.

Recent positives around Solana's network performance and things that I'm looking forward to :)
2) Improved throughput. There are a few different algorithms that have been developed by Jito Labs and Solana Labs to improve the amount of parallelism happening during block packing (when a leader validator builds a block from transactions) and replay (when other validators replay blocks to make sure they're good). Solana validators have super good hardware but we don't even use that many of the cpu threads for actually executing transactions, and the current block space limits (48 million compute units) were conceived for the use of 4 cpu threads (our validator server has 48 cpu threads). The older block packing algorithm was also really bad at handling situations where a certain transaction type was spammed heavily (nft mints for example) and degraded parallelism. Anyway, it seems that these newer replay algorithms are over 2x better than the current implementations -- you can find more about them in the depths of github or discord. Some seem close to production-ready and I think we will see faster confirmation times and increasing of the block compute limits. ABIv2 is another architectural change that will substantially improve throughput as well (afaik) but I know less on this subject. I'm not sure when this will be ready but I've heard that the earlier half of the year is the target https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/issues/27384. There are other upcoming changes to look forward to, but it's probably best to summarize in another post.

Lastly, Algorand IS fast: 6k TPS with 3.7s blocks, soon 10k TPS with 2.5s, and in a not-too-distant future 46k TPS, all of which with instant finality. Algorand IS cheap, and actually exactly as cheap as Solana now ($0.00025/txn: https://solana.com/ & https://metrics.algorand.org/#/protocol/), but with the added benefit that all transactions (whether they're NFTs, non-native assets, or using smart-contracts) are handled the same by the protocol, so same speed and same fees as regular payments. Lastly, Algorand IS clean: it's so clean in fact that it's almost carbon-neutral on a regular basis, but really it's carbon negative because fees are automatically used to offset the remaining carbon emissions with ClimateTrade (see this report, even though it doesn’t take into account recent upgrades in scalability and not comparing smart-contract transactions, so Algorand would be first on top in reality: https://arxiv-export1.library.cornell.edu/pdf/2109.03667).
