Why Render Network Ditched Ethereum for Solana

Trevor Harries-Jones explains why Render Network moved from Ethereum to Solana in 2021. High gas fees on Ethereum made Render's transactions cost-prohibitive at scale, and even layer 2 tests did not deliver enough throughput. Solana offered lower costs and higher throughput for the project's needs. - Render Network originally used Ethereum and ERC-20. - Community cited throughput and cost as major drivers for migration. - Ethereum gas fees were seen as cost-prohibitive at larger scale. - Layer 2 testing still did not provide needed throughput and scale. - Render Network chose Solana for better scalability. - The discussion highlights blockchain selection based on transaction economics.
