The Solana ecosystem is preparing for a major performance improvement after the network approved SIMD-0266, a proposal designed to significantly reduce the computational cost of token operations. The proposal, originally introduced last year by Anza, introduces P-Tokens, a new compute-optimized token engine that could make certain blockchain transactions up to 19 times faster. The upgrade focuses on improving efficiency at one of the most heavily used layers of the network: token instructions. According to Jacob Creech, vice president at the Solana Foundation, the upgrade is expected to go live in April, following staged deployment and activation across the network. The
