Solana eyes institutional use; Lightchain AI attracts early movers with presale

As Solana courts institutions, Lightchain AI is winning early investors with $21m raised, a completed 15-stage presale, and real AI infrastructure already in motion.

Solana may be setting its sights on institutional adoption, but Lightchain AI is attracting early movers with a presale engine that consistently delivers. With all 15 presale phases completed and a Bonus Round now underway at a fixed price of $0.007, the project has already drawn nearly $21 million in committed interest.

This isn’t speculation, it’s structured progress. Lightchain AI backs its momentum with real tools: an AI-native Virtual Machine, developer grants, and transparent governance designed for scalability. While others chase validation from institutions, Lightchain AI is winning over the wallets that move first, and often define what comes next in crypto.

Solana targets institutional growth with scalable infrastructure

Solana (SOL) is on the fast track to becoming a leading blockchain for institutional adoption by the end of 2025, thanks to major infrastructure upgrades and key partnerships.

Notable features introduced in the upgrade include the addition of the Firedancer validator client, which intends to increase transaction throughput by 4-times to 1.2 million transactions per second (TPS), and the Alpenglow consensus protocol, which is expected to reduce network latency by 100 times. Moreover, Mithril client allows for lite, self-verifying nodes, improving decentralization and accessibility.

Solana’s high throughput and low fees have drawn big financial guns to its blockchain. Specifically, R3 has teamed up with the Solana Foundation to mesh its blockchain with customers including HSBC, Bank of America, and Euroclear so as to tokenize such assets as stocks and bonds.

Also, we can see strong growth in the Solana ecosystem, as its dApps captured 57% of the total dApp revenues across the entire crypto market in April 2025. This momentum continues to highlight Solana’s dedication to making scalable, fast, and crypto-currency-friendly blockchain solutions the new, usable standard.

Lightchain AI converts presale design into real buyer momentum

Lightchain AI has successfully converted its structured presale design into real, sustained buyer momentum. By completing all 15 stages without delays and raising $21 million, the platform demonstrated consistent delivery and clear planning, qualities that resonate with serious participants.

The Bonus Round now offers fixed pricing, allowing late-stage buyers to enter with confidence. Tokenomics were designed to support this momentum, with 40% of the supply allocated to presale and 15% to staking rewards.

The complete removal of the 5% Team Allocation and its reallocation to builder-focused initiatives only deepened trust. With a scalable sharded architecture and the upcoming public release of development repositories, Lightchain AI’s market movement is no accident, it’s the result of smart design, steady progress, and transparent execution.

Early confidence, real results: Lightchain AI is a smart choice 

Confidence is turning into results, and Lightchain AI is leading the way as the smart entry point for serious investors. With over $21 million raised and all 15 presale stages successfully completed, the Bonus Round is now live with fixed pricing and surging momentum.

Developers are diving in, infrastructure is up and running, and grants are fueling innovation. Lightchain AI isn’t following the hype, it’s creating it.
