Solana NFTs are now integrated to Trust Wallet
We are excited to announce that the Trust Wallet development team has successfully added support for NFTs that are minted and hosted on the Solana blockchain. You can now store and buy/sell Solana NFTs without ever having to leave your Trust Wallet app.
What is Solana?
Solana is a 3rd generation blockchain that supports an array of DeFi solutions, including the development and hosting for decentralized applications (DApps) as well as NFTs. Unlike other blockchains which use Proof of Work (PoW) consensus, Solana uses a hybrid of Proof of History (PoH) combined with Proof of Stake (PoS) algorithm making it able handle up to 50 thousand transactions per second.

Simply, Solana NFTs are non fungible tokens that are minted and hosted on the Solana blockchain. Solana has become one of the most popular ecosystems in the blockchain world and so are Solana-based NFTs. Popular NFT marketplaces for Solana include Solanart and Magic Eden.
