The Solana team introduced a platform for launching financial products with built-in compliance solutions, AI technology support, and enterprise-grade privacy.
The Solana Foundation announced the launch of the Solana Developer Platform (SDP), a new infrastructure for banks and companies that enables the creation of blockchain-based financial services through a unified set of APIs. The platform brings together more than 20 infrastructure partners and is already being used by companies such as Mastercard, Worldpay, and Western Union for stablecoin settlements and cross-border payments.
SDP is a modular system that allows organizations to bring products to market faster while ensuring regulatory compliance and scalability. The solution is designed for the enterprise sector and reduces technical barriers to adopting blockchain technologies.
The platform includes three key modules:
- Asset issuance module. Enables the creation of stablecoins, tokenized deposits, and real-world assets (RWA).
- Payments module. Supports transactions with fiat and stablecoins, including on- and off-ramps and settlements in B2B, B2C, and P2P formats.
- Trading module. Enables operations such as atomic swaps and FX transactions.
At launch, the issuance and payments modules are already available, while the trading module is expected to roll out in 2026. The platform operates in a devnet and supports integration with AI-based development tools such as OpenAI and Anthropic solutions.
A key part of the SDP ecosystem is its compliance infrastructure, which includes solutions for customer verification (KYC/KYB), Travel Rule compliance, and transaction monitoring. In total, the platform aggregates services across four categories: nodes, wallets, compliance, and payment gateways.
The launch comes amid growing demand for enterprise blockchain solutions with a focus on privacy. According to Solana research, the network processes over 100 million transactions per day with confirmation latency of around 200 milliseconds and fees at fractions of a cent, making it suitable for large-scale financial use cases.
At the same time, the ecosystem implements a multi-layered approach to privacy, from pseudonymous transactions to fully private operations using cryptography and distributed computing. This allows companies to choose the right balance between transparency and confidentiality depending on business and regulatory requirements.
The volume of stablecoin transactions processed on Solana exceeded $1 trillion in 2025, prompting the Solana Developers team to release an expanded guide for building payment solutions on the network.
