Paysafe’s Skrill and NETELLER Add Solana Buying and Selling Support

Oct 06, 2021

LONDON, UKSkrill and NETELLER customers can now buy and sell Solana, one of the top-rated cryptocurrencies on the market and one of the most high performing smart contract blockchains. Solana can also be bought or sold directly against fiat thanks to the integration to the Skrill and NETELLER cryptocurrency services from leading specialised payments platform Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE).

With an active ecosystem of DeFi and NFT projects, Solana is a blockchain platform that uses SOL tokens. As as a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain, Solana’s focus lies in being heavily optimised for parallel processing and fast networking. Solana claims to be able to process a rapid 50,000 transactions per second without compromising its decentralisation.

Now, Skrill and NETELLER users can manage their Solana portfolio directly in-app. Like with the other 37 cryptocurrencies available on the two digital wallet apps — including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Chainlink, Uniswap — users can set up custom price alerts to notify them of major movements, as well as set up automated and/or recurring purchases. The offering is now live in all countries where the Skrill and NETELLER cryptocurrency services are currently available across Europe, Asia and Latin America. It has not yet launched in the U.S.

“Solana is a very exciting addition to our growing crypto offering for both Skrill and NETELLER,” said Jordan Stoev, Head of Crypto, Skrill and NETELLER, at Paysafe. “Solana is growing at a rapid pace, not just in value but in developer attention and the variety of projects building on it. With its high performance and ecosystem support, we believe many of our users will be excited about  the opportunity to buy and sell this currency.”

Stoev added: “With the ongoing surge in interest that we’ve seen in cryptocurrencies over the last couple of years, and even more notably since the start of the pandemic, we are excited to launch new features for our service, like the addition of Solana. We are continually looking to provide our users around the world with better, new and secure ways to interact with their money in a way that is convenient for them.”

About Solana

Solana is a decentralized computing platform that uses SOL to pay for transactions. Solana aims to improve blockchain scalability by using a combination of proof of stake consensus and so-called proof of history. As a result, Solana claims to be able to support 50,000 transactions per second without sacrificing decentralization. One way Solana achieves high transaction speeds is via a combination of the proof-of-stake consensus mechanism and a new mechanism called “proof of history.” Proof of history is designed to keep time between computers on a decentralied network without all the computers having to communicate about it and come to an agreement.
