Solana validators are among the most active participants in crypto, casting votes every second, producing blocks, and earning rewards nonstop. But with millions of transactions generated each day, legacy financial infrastructure simply can’t keep up.
At Bitwave, we’re on a mission to deliver the most scalable, high-performance financial platform for digital assets. That’s why we’re excited to announce expanded support for Solana validators—purpose-built for the demands of high-volume blockchain operations.
With this release, Bitwave empowers validator teams to seamlessly manage millions of transactions, accurately track multiple reward streams, and access audit-ready financial data for reconciliation, reporting, and compliance.

Validator-First Solana Support
Our newest feature functionality brings specialized support to Solana validators, with game-changing operations for those who:
- Generate millions of transactions per week
- Earn block and commission rewards
- Need accounting-grade data to support operations, audits, or tax reporting
Bitwave greatly enhances how vote accounts and reward mechanisms are tracked and reported with:
- Hourly Rollups for Voting Transactions: Solana validators cast votes 2–3 times every second, resulting in millions of voting transactions per week. Bitwave rolls up voting transactions into hourly summaries, dramatically improving scalability without sacrificing financial accuracy and insight.
- Full Detail for Non-Voting Transactions: Not all validator activity is voting. Other transactions (like staking movements or system interactions) are still captured with full fidelity, giving you a complete and auditable history of non-voting activity.
- Full Rewards Tracking: Solana validators earn two distinct reward types – commission and block rewards. Bitwave tracks both reward types, giving validators the transparency they need to reconcile revenue and report earnings accurately.
- Commission Rewards: Earned through vote accounts, distributed roughly every two days (per epoch).
- Block Rewards: Earned by successfully producing blocks, which can occur 5–15 times per hour.
Inflation Rewards & SOL Jito Staking
In addition to block and commission rewards, Bitwave continues to deliver accurate tracking, management, and reporting for Solana inflation rewards.
Inflation rewards are part of the protocol’s design to incentivize participation and maintain economic stability. With Bitwave, you can easily capture, categorize, and report on these transactions within our subledger. We're proud to enable a complete and compliant record of every SOL earned across all reward types.
Staking SOL on Jito? Bitwave has you covered. We offer full transaction tracking to give you complete flexiblity and control.
Bitwave now makes this level of detail and scale not only possible, but simple.

Why This Matters
Solving a Massive Scale Problem: Solana’s speed is its superpower, but it also creates huge volumes of data. Existing infrastructure can’t keep up. Bitwave’s hourly rollups make validator activity scalable, efficient, and reliable.
Full Financial Visibility: For the first time, Solana validators can get a full picture of what they earned, when they earned it, and how it was earned. All while separating vote activity from other on-chain interactions, giving unmatched clarity and traceability. By combining summarized vote activity with detailed non-voting transactions and full reward tracking, Bitwave provides enterprise-grade subledger support with audit-ready reconciliation, reporting, and compliance.
An Important Note: To protect your historical data, Bitwave does not enable these by default for existing accounts. For an in-depth explanation of your specific use case, be sure to reach out to your Bitwave CSO.
Built for the Future of Solana
As the Solana ecosystem continues to grow and mature, validators need tools that can keep pace.
With this latest feature upgrade, Bitwave delivers the scalability, transparency, and control that institutional validators require, making it easier than ever to unlock the power of blockchain technology.
