The venture capitalist branch of the world’s largest crypto exchange platform by volume is announcing a new investment into a Solana (SOL) staking protocol.

In a new blog post, Binance Labs says it’s investing an unspecified amount into Solayer, a Solana-based staking network that has gathered over $150 million in Total Value Locked (TVL) and reeled in over 70,000 unique addresses in just 60 days after its launch.

According to Binance, Solayer’s goal is to improve the bandwidth of on-chain decentralized applications (DApps) and to secure the blockchain.

“Built natively on Solana, Solayer leverages the economic principles of proof-of-stake to extend the security of Solana’s base layer towards other decentralized systems and dApps…

With the newly secured funds from Binance Labs, Solayer plans to scale its team, onboard new protocols into the ecosystem, and establish itself as a core primitive of the Solana blockchain. Additionally, the team will focus on researching solutions to address Solana’s network congestion issues using restaking infrastructure.”

As stated by Yi He, the co-founder of Binance and the head of Binance Labs,

“Binance Labs is committed to supporting early-stage projects that propel the growth of crypto ecosystems. Solayer has emerged as a dominant player in the Solana ecosystem, and we are excited to join them on their journey to make the ecosystem more vibrant.”

Solana is trading for $147 at time of writing, a 1.8% increase during the last 24 hours.

Last week, Binance Labs also announced an investment into Particle Network, a modular Cosmos (ATOM)-based layer-1 blockchain that aims to address user and liquidity fragmentation by allowing traders to have a single account across all crypto networks.
