About Solana

What Solana is, and why people buy it

Solana is a high-throughput blockchain built to make transactions fast and cheap enough for everyday use: thousands of transactions per second, confirmations in well under a second, and fees that are typically a fraction of a cent. That combination has made it a home for payments, trading, NFTs, consumer apps, and much of the activity in newer tokens. SOL is the coin that pays for transactions and secures the network through staking.

People buy SOL to hold one of the largest crypto assets, to use applications built on Solana, to pay for transactions on the network, and to stake it and earn network rewards from a wallet they control. Its speed and low fees also make it a common choice for moving stablecoins such as USDC.

Buy Solana from Coin Nerds, or sell it to us, online and across branch counters. Every purchase settles at the live market rate on this page and is delivered to your own Solana wallet within minutes of your payment clearing.

How to store Solana

Solana is delivered to any Solana wallet you control: Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack for everyday use, or a hardware wallet such as a Ledger for larger amounts. Solana addresses look different from Ethereum addresses, so double-check you are giving us a Solana address. Write down the recovery phrase and keep it offline. A real person is on chat if you have questions before your first order.

Ticker: SOL. One SOL divides into 1,000,000,000 lamports.
Launched: March 2020, created by Anatoly Yakovenko and built by Solana Labs; stewarded today by the Solana Foundation and a large validator community.
Consensus: Proof of stake with proof of history, a cryptographic clock that lets validators order transactions quickly; the network targets sub-second confirmation.
Fees: Transaction fees are typically a fraction of a cent, which is why the network is used for payments and high-volume trading.
Supply: No hard cap; new SOL is issued to stakers on a declining inflation schedule set by the protocol, and part of each fee is burned.
Custody: You hold SOL with a private key. Coin Nerds delivers to the wallet address you provide, so the keys are yours from the first minute.

Protocol facts are public and current as of August 18, 2026. Prices on this page are the live Coin Nerds market feed.

Do I need my own wallet to buy Solana?

Yes, and that is the point. Coin Nerds is non-custodial: your SOL is delivered to a wallet whose keys you hold, not to an exchange balance. If you do not have one yet, a real person is on chat to answer questions before your first order.

How much Solana can I buy, and how fast does it arrive?

Any fraction of a coin. Small orders go through the widget or the app at the live rate and arrive in your wallet within minutes of your payment clearing; orders of $50,000 or more go through the OTC desk for one locked price and a dedicated account manager. Same-day signup to first trade is standard.

Is it safe to buy Solana through Coin Nerds?

Coin Nerds, Inc. is a registered money services business regulated in multiple jurisdictions, with $3B+ settled since 2018 and 100K+ customers.

What is the Solana price today?

The live SOL price is in the widget and in the market panel on this page, quoted from the live market in USD with CAD and other currencies alongside. The amount you see when you confirm is the amount that lands in your wallet.

Can I stake the Solana I buy?

Yes. Solana runs on proof of stake, and you can delegate SOL to a validator from a wallet you control without giving up your keys. See the staking page for how Coin Nerds helps you set it up.

What is a lamport?

The smallest unit of SOL, one billionth of a coin, named after computer scientist Leslie Lamport. Transaction fees on Solana are quoted in lamports.

Is Solana good for sending stablecoins?

It is one of the most common networks for it. USDC is issued natively on Solana, and transfers settle in about a second for a fraction of a cent. If you want USDC on Solana, confirm the network with us on chat before you order.
