引入Solana雄心勃勃的核心升級到其共識協議的Alpenglow

Solana開發人員正在計劃迄今為止區塊鏈最雄心勃勃的核心升級，該升級迄今為止，該升級替代了其當前的技術堆棧，以重新設計的共識協議為近乎建立的最終終結和響應性構建。

Solana developers are planning what could be the blockchain’s most ambitious core upgrade yet — one that ditches its current technology stack and pivots to a redesigned consensus protocol built for near-instant finality and responsiveness.

Solana開發人員正在計劃區塊鏈最雄心勃勃的核心升級，這將其當前的技術堆棧和樞軸拋棄到重新設計的共識協議，該協議是為了近乎固有的最終定義和響應能力。

The new system, called Alpenglow, was unveiled on Monday by infrastructure firm Anza, a Solana Labs spinout.

新系統稱為Alpenglow，週一由Solana Labs Spinout的基礎設施公司Anza揭幕。

It proposes replacing Proof of History — Solana’s famously unique “pre-recorded clock” system — and Tower BFT, its existing voting mechanism for reaching consensus.

它提議替換歷史證明（Solana）著名的獨特“預錄製時鐘”系統和塔BFT，這是其現有的獲得共識的投票機制。

BFT, or Byzantine Fault Tolerance, is a way for a group of network nodes to agree on a piece of information even if some were lying or broken.

BFT或拜占庭式容忍度是使一組網絡節點同意一條信息的一種方式，即使有些人撒謊或破裂。

Proof of History is one of Solana’s core features, a type of cryptographic “clock” so validators don’output:t have to argue over timing when recording data to the network — a shortcut that immensely speeds the network but adds complexity.

歷史證明是Solana的核心功能之一，一種加密“時鐘”類型，因此驗證器不要在將數據記錄到網絡時就時間安排爭論 - 這是一種極大地加快網絡但增加複雜性的快捷方式。

Why shift?

為什麼要轉移？

So why the proposed shift? Because both systems are relatively slow and complex under the hood. TowerBFT needs multiple rounds of voting, and Proof of History relies on a cryptographic clock that can cause coordination delays. Alpenglow simplifies this with faster, more direct communication and quicker consensus.

那麼為什麼擬議的轉變呢？因為這兩個系統在引擎蓋下都相對較慢且複雜。 TowerBft需要多輪投票，歷史證明依賴於可能導致協調延遲的加密時鐘。 Alpenglow以更快，更直接的溝通和更快的共識來簡化這一點。

In their place comes a two-part solution:

他們取而代之的是一個由兩部分組成的解決方案：

1) Votor, which handles block finalization and can confirm transactions in as little as 100–150 milliseconds (based on current simulations).

1）選民，該選民可以處理封鎖最終確定，並可以在100-150毫秒（基於當前的模擬）中確認交易。

2) Rotor, a data relay protocol that aims to transmit transaction data faster and more efficiently than Turbine, Solana’s current broadcast mechanism.

2）轉子，一種數據繼電器協議，旨在比Solana的當前廣播機制更快，更有效地傳輸交易數據。

This isn't just a tech flex, it directly impacts developer experience, user responsiveness, and the types of apps that can run natively on Solana, including real-time finance, gaming, and social tools.

這不僅僅是技術靈活，它直接影響開發人員的體驗，用戶響應能力以及可以在Solana上本地運行的應用程序的類型，包括實時財務，遊戲和社交工具。

These implementations could, in turn, increase on-chain activity, and by extension, SOL token demand.

這些實現可能會增加鏈上的活動，並擴展到Sol令牌需求。

Finality in under a second would mark a step-change for Layer 1 blockchains, most of which still operate on multi-second confirmation windows. Solana has already experimented with “optimistic confirmations” to reduce latency, but Alpenglow formalizes this into a provably fast protocol.

一秒鐘以下的最終性將標誌著第1層區塊鏈的階梯變化，其中大多數仍在多秒確認窗口上運行。 Solana已經嘗試了“樂觀的確認”以減少潛伏期，但Alpenglow將其正式化為一個非常快速的協議。

Finality means a transaction is fully confirmed and can’t be changed or reversed, making it a permanent part of the blockchain.

最終性意味著交易已得到充分確認，無法更改或逆轉，使其成為區塊鏈的永久部分。

Per its whitepaper, Alpenglow's Votor system could finalize blocks in a single voting round if 80% of the stake is online, or two rounds if only 60% is responsive, with both modes running concurrently to finalize on the faster path.

根據白皮書，Alpenglow的選民系統可以在單個投票回合中敲定塊，如果80％的股份在線，或者只有60％的響應迅速，則兩輪均可響應，兩種模式都同時運行以在更快的路徑上最終確定。

On the other hand, using Rotor would allow fewer “hops,” smarter relay node selection, and better bandwidth distribution to push data around the network quickly — critical for keeping block times fast without relying on a central bottleneck.

另一方面，使用轉子將允許更少的“啤酒花”，更智能的繼電器節點選擇和更好的帶寬分佈來快速將數據推向網絡周圍的數據 - 對於不依賴中央瓶頸而不依賴中央瓶頸的塊時間至關重要。

A hop is one step a piece of data takes as it moves from one computer (or node) to another across a network.

跳躍是一個數據，當它通過網絡從一台計算機（或節點）移動到另一台數據時，它是一個步驟。

As of Tuesday, no launch date has been confirmed. But for Solana, this is more than just an upgrade — it’s a bet on speed as the chain’s identity. If it works, it could re-assert Solana’s position not just as the fastest L1, but as one of the only ones fast enough for real-time use cases.

截至週二，尚未確認發布日期。但是對於Solana而言，這不僅僅是升級 - 這是鏈條身份的速度下注。如果有效，它可能會重新確定Solana的位置，而不僅是最快的L1，而且可以作為實時用例的唯一快速的位置之一。
