Massive DDoS Hits Solana Infrastructure Yet Blockchain Maintains Operations Solana network is absorbing a distributed denial of service attack (DDoS) that has reached approximately 6 terabytes per second, yet the blockchain remains operational while SOL price tests critical support at $126. The assault marks one of the largest recorded DDoS attempts against a major cryptocurrency network, though validators have maintained transaction processing without confirmed outages. What Happened: Network Under Attack Solana's infrastructure is weathering a DDoS attack that FXStreet reports has generated roughly 6 Tbps of traffic and billions of packets per second. The network has continued processing transactions despite the volume, contrasting with congestion issues that plagued the chain in earlier cycles. Price action tells a different story than network performance. SOL closed three consecutive red days and traded near $126 on Tuesday with approximately 1% daily losses. CoinGlass derivatives data shows futures open interest dropped about 3.6% in 24 hours to roughly $7.04 billion. Funding rates flipped negative to around -0.0078%, indicating short sellers are paying to maintain positions. Technical indicators point toward further downside pressure. The daily Relative Strength Index sits near 37 and continues falling toward oversold territory, while the MACD approaches a bearish crossover with red histogram bars building below zero.

Solana has operated without outages for over 18 months, according to a mid-year ecosystem report from QuickNode. The network's ability to maintain operations under assault supports its positioning against competitors like BNB Chain, Avalanche and Near.
Communication Tips by CZ (Dec 2025) Be efficient. Don’t be polite. Get to the point. I hate formalities. I don’t chit chat. You won’t get a response if you say any variation of the following: “Hi”, then nothing “How are you?” “Good day to you sir!” “Merry Xmas, Happy New Year, Happy Birthday, etc” “Can we have a meeting?” (no agenda given) “Let’s discuss an important partnership” (no specifics) “Want to introduce you to XYZ (someone important)” (no specifics) You may be referred to this article. I am efficient with my time, even if you may consider it impolite (apologies). So, please be direct and tell me: I am ___ I need ___ (or) I can provide ___ If your first message is too long (more than one mobile screen with large fonts for an elderly like me), it will likely be skipped. A few tips: For pitches, go to www.yzilabs.com For listings, apply online at www.binance.com For buying/selling large amounts of crypto, please contact Binance OTC desk. Don’t ask open ended questions, I usually won’t know the answer. Don’t ask me to interact with some meme coin. For most things, going through me is slower. I don’t do much. I am mostly just a router, a slow one. Hope you are not offended. Let’s communicate efficiently. Cheers, CZ
