Solana's infrastructure challenges are getting real attention. Alchemy's CTO recently broke down what's actually happening under the hood—the bottlenecks developers are hitting, the scaling limitations, and what it takes to keep the chain running smoothly. The conversation touches on why building on Solana requires a different mindset compared to other chains, and where the real friction points emerge when you're deploying at speed and scale. Worth diving into if you care about how Solana's tech stack actually works and what developers are up against.

Solana is quite a deep pit; it seems developers need to change their mindset.

It should be pointed out that the limitations of Solana's MPU architecture were already exposed in 2021. This time, Alchemy finally revealed the truth—on-chain data shows that the bottleneck is not in the consensus layer, but in the design flaw of state inflation. It's just another case of being betrayed by the very technology itself.

SOL ecosystem developers really need to see this. Stop coding based on assumptions; the actual bottlenecks are much more than you think.
