  • Flowra launched an Open Orderflow Auction for Solana (CRYPTO:SOL) validators and registered searchers.
  • Flowra reported a 20.6% rise in compute units per block during a single-validator test.
  • Its Programmable Block Policy lets validators set transaction rules without changing Solana’s protocol.

Flowra launched an Open Orderflow Auction for Solana (CRYPTO:SOL), allowing searchers to compete for transaction inclusion.

The system uses open bidding instead of closed orderflow channels, according to Flowra.

“By opening block building to transparent competition, we’re creating a more efficient market for blockspace,” said Flowra CEO Harry Hwang.

Flowra reported that one validator increased compute units per block by 20.6% during testing.

The validator moved from 84% to 101% of the network average, while Flowra also reported higher block fees.

Flowra said the test achieved 100% block production and 99.999% block engine uptime, but involved only one validator.

The company is onboarding institutional-grade validators while its Programmable Block Policy adds transaction controls without changing Solana’s protocol.

At the time of reporting, Solana price was $101.51.
