Solana's policy arm reads an SEC order as opening tokenised stocks
A five-year exemption is described as letting real shares trade on permissionless chains without exchange registration. The account is advocacy; the conditions live in the order.

SIMD-0558 spells out the order in which its syscall refuses a pointer
The leader-info syscall proposal now documents pointer validation step by step: compute units first, then an unaligned-loader guard, then a direct rejection of input-region destinations.
Solana accepts SIMD-0582: fail on trace overflow before doing the work
A proposal merged into the improvement documents repository on 16 September moves detection of instruction trace overflow earlier, so a transaction that cannot succeed is rejected before the runtime spends on it.
Solana changelog: Transaction V1 on mainnet, cheaper rent, 250ms slots
The 18 September changelog records Transaction V1, a rent cut to 5,080 lamports per byte and a slot-time reduction to 250ms as notable mainnet feature gates, with SIMD debate on removing block compute limits.
Agave 4.3.0 ships stable, carrying the first pieces of the Votor transport
The validator release adds vote-commission CLI commands and improves send-error stats in votor-transport — the plumbing behind the Alpenglow consensus change now landing in a mainnet-suitable build.
A v1 Solana transaction would be allowed to lock 96 accounts, not 64
SIMD-0596 raises the account lock limit for version 1 transactions by half. It is a Draft, it does not touch legacy or v0 transactions, and the feature key is still blank.
Solana's consensus rewrite is written up as arriving; its SIMD says Review
Agave 4.3 is the release cycle that carries Votor, the replacement for Proof of History and TowerBFT. We opened SIMD-0326 itself: the thresholds check out, the headline latency figure is not in it, and the proposal is not accepted yet.
