Sharing The Infinity Vision
As a lead-in to December's Infinity Week, we started sharing our endgame vision for Infinity as our flagship product.
With Infinity serving two distinct roles, providing liquidity for the Solana LST ecosystem and generating returns for INF holders on their deposited SOL, we chose to articulate our vision through a pair of dedicated blog posts, each focused on one of these functions.

An Upgraded Gateway
Gateway keeps getting better and better.
This month, we pushed several updates to help teams better handle all things transactions, including:
- New API version
- Transaction expiry configuration
- Weighted routing
- Expanded delivery channels
- Track slot latencies
- Pricing update
You can read details about each update here:
→ Gateway Progress Update: Faster, Smarter Transaction Delivery
Teams have already started using this new version of Gateway. We recently wrapped up the Gateway track of the Cyperpunk Hackathon, with five teams taking home their share of a $10,000 prize pool for Gateway implementations.
Through the hackathon, we received a healthy dose of feedback from the participating builders.
"During beta, we saw a clear jump in success rates and faster confirmations, without touching our core product logic. Sanctum basically shipped the transaction infra we would’ve burned weeks building ourselves, so SolCircle can focus on trustless group trading while Gateway quietly keeps every squad’s transaction flowing." - @SolCircle_IN
