- Solana drives innovation in blockchain with SolChat, integrating secure audio calls via WebRTC and DTLS encryption for privacy.
- This technological breakthrough positions Solana as a leader in blockchain communications, challenging Ethereum with efficiency and reduced costs.
Solana succeeds in introducing audio calls between wallets through its decentralized application (DApp), SolChat. This pioneering functionality not only stands out for its innovation but also for the underlying technology that facilitates secure and private real-time communications within its ecosystem.
Using WebRTC for Secure and Real-Time Communications
The foundational technology behind this novel feature is WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication), an open-source software facilitating direct interactions between browsers and wallets, eliminating the necessity for intermediaries.

This allows SolChat users to make and receive audio calls, ensuring seamless, real-time interaction. WebRTC is not only capable of facilitating voice communication but also supports text and video, opening up possibilities for future updates and enhancements to the Solana platform, some of which we have covered in ETHNews.
DTLS Encryption: The Backbone of SolChat Privacy
To ensure that these communications are not only seamless but also private, SolChat employs the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS)encryption standard. This protocol is especially suited for time-sensitive applications such as voice calls, providing an additional layer of security.
DTLS is designed to prevent interception, tampering, and message forgery ensuring that conversations between users remain private and secure. This level of security is criticalย in a space where privacy and security are top priority.
SOL price?
The current price of Solana (SOL) is approximately 131.37 USD, up 1.15 USD or about 0.88%. As of today, the price has seen a change of 0.90%.
