Use the quick analogy first so the term is easier to reason about when you meet it in code, docs, or prompts.
Think of it as a building block that connects one definition to the larger Solana system around it.
Place the term inside its Solana layer so the definition is easier to reason about.
Teams, protocols, tools, and the wider Solana product landscape.
Turn the term from vocabulary into something operational for product and engineering work.
This term unlocks adjacent concepts quickly, so it works best when you treat it as a junction instead of an isolated definition.

An open payment standard and SDK that defines URI schemes and protocol flows for requesting SOL or SPL token transfers and for constructing and returning partially-built transactions from merchant backends to user wallets. It comprises two sub-protocols — Transfer Requests (simple static payment URIs) and Transaction Requests (dynamic server-signed transaction fetching) — and enables point-of-sale payments, loyalty programs, and interactive commerce experiences using QR codes or deeplinks.
A non-fungible token on Solana—an SPL token with 0 decimals, supply of 1, and revoked mint authority. The NFT's metadata (image, attributes) is stored off-chain (Arweave/IPFS) linked via the Metaplex metadata account's URI field. NFTs can be standard, compressed (cNFT), programmable (pNFT), or Core assets, each with different trade-offs.
The native token of the Solana blockchain, used for paying transaction fees, staking, and rent. 1 SOL equals 1 billion lamports. SOL has an inflationary supply schedule starting at 8% annually, decreasing by 15% per year, with a long-term floor of 1.5%. Transaction base fees (5,000 lamports) are partially burned.
These are the next concepts worth opening if you want this term to make more sense inside a real Solana workflow.
These entries are easy to mix up when you are reading quickly, prompting an LLM, or onboarding into a new layer of Solana.
A free, community-funded annual conference focused on APAC and emerging markets. The 2025 editions were held in Da Nang, Vietnam and Abuja, Nigeria. Organized by Superteam chapters and ecosystem partners, Solana Summit brings together local developers, founders, and community members in regions outside major crypto hubs to foster growth and adoption.
One of the earliest lending and borrowing protocols on Solana, originally launched as Solend in 2021 and later rebranded to Save.
