Solana’s New Tool Slashes KYC Friction—Because Banks Move at Dial-Up Speed
Solana just dropped a compliance grenade in the slow-motion world of crypto onboarding. Their latest protocol upgrade bypasses legacy KYC bottlenecks—letting users swap anonymity for access without the usual three-business-day soul-searching period.
How it works: Zero-knowledge proofs meet regulatory checkboxes. The system verifies credentials without exposing raw data—finally giving institutions their paperwork while preserving crypto’s pseudo-anonymous ethos. TradFi compliance officers are already reaching for the antacids.
The kicker? This lands as Wall Street’s KYC departments still process manual PDF uploads like it’s 2003. Maybe next they’ll solve the ’why does ACH take 72 hours in the age of instant settlement’ paradox.
