SOLNEX announced the prelaunch of its new platform designed to generate automated yield on the Solana network. The platform uses an advanced artificial intelligence system, METAsol, to analyze market data and execute trades in real-time.
Solana’s network produces over 15 terabytes of data daily, with trading volumes between $5 billion and $10 billion. SOLNEX was created to process this information, identifying financial opportunities as they emerge.
The platform is powered by the METAsol protocol, an autonomous on-chain intelligence protocol. METAsol operates through three core components:
The Synapse Network scans every transaction, liquidity change, and wallet movement across Solana.
The Cognitive Core uses AI to identify new trends and forecast capital movements.
The Reflex Engine uses these insights to execute programmatic strategies like arbitrage and momentum trading.
This process generates what SOLNEX calls Quantum Yield, a consistent stream of profit derived from market intelligence.
Users access the system through SOLNEX Grid products. Each Grid is a self-contained yield system that runs for 365 days. Upon activation, users also receive a 100% value-back in $METASOL, the ecosystem’s native token.
“We built METAsol to bring order to the chaos of on-chain data,” said Logan Pietroforte, CEO of METAsol. “SOLNEX is the gateway for everyone to access that intelligence. It makes high-performance yield generation simple, secure, and transparent.”
The platform includes features for growth and security. The SOLNEX Accelerator allows users to apply 50% of the value of their active Grids to unlock higher-tier Grids. For security, the SolNex Vault and Reserve System provides users with Insurance Points for capital protection.
Additionally, 20% of every withdrawal is converted into $SOL and sent to a public on-chain reserve to ensure transparency.
SOLNEX began a 60-day prelaunch program on November 10, 2025. This period allows early users to activate Grids and prepare for the official public release. The prelaunch will culminate in Velocity 2026, the official global launch event hosted in Hong Kong and Macau.
By 2027, the company plans for METAsol to evolve into a Quantum Yield-as-a-Service infrastructure. This will allow other protocols and DAOs to use its intelligence engine.
About SOLNEX
SOLNEX is a decentralized finance platform providing user access to AI-powered yield generation on the Solana blockchain. It simplifies complex algorithmic trading through its flagship Grid products, powered by the METAsol intelligence engine.

Ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, lawmakers and the Association of Permit Holders, Operators and Suppliers (AIEJA) are driving efforts to replace the 1947 Federal Gaming and Lottery Law with a modern framework built on transparency, responsible gaming, and stronger player protection.
If approved, this long-awaited reform will establish the National Institute of Games and Raffles, marking the dawn of a regulated, innovation-driven era that opens rewarding opportunities for operators, suppliers, affiliates, and investors alike.
Mexico already has the scale, demand, infrastructure, and local expertise to become LatAm’s leading hub. Its dual gaming ecosystem is thriving, both online and offline, and analysts expect the iGaming market to climb significantly in the coming years. Meanwhile, the land-based sector continues to expand steadily, with the country’s 350+ casinos standing as a testament to sustained growth and consumer appetite.
With Mexico on the brink of a long-awaited regulatory modernisation, this growth is set to accelerate, making MEGA 2026 the perfect platform to connect with the influential leaders driving that transformation.
Sharing her perspective on the region’s evolution, event Chairperson Margarita Cruz, Founder/Director of Diamond28 Consulting Limited, remarked:
“Mexico and LatAm are transitioning from high-velocity growth to a more structured regulatory era, reshaping how operators plan and compete. I’ll share practical insights on aligning commercial strategy with compliance, operational scalability and market culture.
