Solana is a high-performance Layer 1 blockchain designed for mass adoption by providing a fast, secure, and low-cost environment for decentralized applications. It distinguishes itself by scaling globally without the use of complex sharding or multiple layers, instead maintaining a single, unified ledger to avoid liquidity fragmentation. This architecture allows it to process thousands of transactions per second with sub-second finality, often at a cost of less than a penny per transaction.  The network operates on a unique hybrid model that combines Proof of Stake with an innovation called Proof of History, which functions as a decentralized clock to timestamp transactions. This system reduces the need for constant node communication, allowing the Sealevel engine to run non-conflicting smart contracts in parallel across multiple CPU cores. Further efficiency is gained through the Gulf Stream protocol, which reduces confirmation times by forwarding transactions to validators before the current block is finished.  Founded in 2017 by Anatoly Yakovenko, Solana is now supported by the Switzerland-based Solana Foundation and significant institutional investors like Andreessen Horowitz and Polychain Capital. The platform’s native token, SOL, serves as the primary currency for paying transaction fees, participating in network governance, and securing the system through staking.   Solana has also seen significant institutional adoption ranging from spot Solana ETFs to major partnerships including Visa's 2025 launch of USDC settlement on the network and the tokenization of public equity by firms like Galaxy Digital.

Solana

Solana is a focal point of intense debate, with some traders fearing significant drops amidst broader crypto market corrections and global uncertainties, while a strong contingent sees current levels as a prime "buy the dip" opportunity, highlighting its continued ecosystem growth and high transaction volume.

Zcash is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that uses trustless zero-knowledge proofs to enable fully encrypted transactions while maintaining blockchain transparency and security. It was the first cryptocurrency to implement zero-knowledge encryption for private peer-to-peer payments, addressing the fundamental privacy gap in traditional cryptocurrencies that expose transaction details publicly.   With a fixed supply of 21 million ZEC and a halving schedule similar to Bitcoin, Zcash allows users to prove transactions are valid without revealing sensitive information like wallet balances, transaction amounts, or participant identities, making it suitable for everyday payments, long-term savings, and cross-border money transfers where financial confidentiality matters.  The protocol operates on its own blockchain currently using Proof-of-Work consensus, though it's evolving toward Proof-of-Stake through the planned "Crosslink" upgrade to enhance security, scalability, and energy efficiency. Zcash employs trustless zero-knowledge proofs (Halo) within its Orchard shielded pool to verify transactions without revealing sender, receiver, or amount information.   Users can choose between transparent public transactions and shielded private transactions through Unified Addresses, which work with both types. The network is faster and cheaper than Bitcoin, with new blocks mined every 75 seconds and transaction fees typically just a fraction of a cent. Privacy adoption has surged in 2025, with over 30% of total ZEC supply now held in fully shielded pools.  Zcash was created by a group of scientists in 2013 who initially proposed Zerocoin as a privacy extension to Bitcoin before building a standalone protocol. The ecosystem operates with a self-funded development model where block rewards support independent teams through the Zcash Community Grants Committee and a new Coinholder-Controlled Fund.

Zcash

Zcash is trending as its privacy features gain traction, highlighted by BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes including ZEC in his portfolio and the recent favorable conclusion of an SEC investigation. The community is actively discussing these catalysts alongside the launch of a new wallet by the original development team, fueling a renewed interest in privacy-focused cryptocurrencies.

Netflix, Inc. engages in providing entertainment services. It also offers activities for leisure time, entertainment video, video gaming, and other sources of entertainment.

Makary recommended that the Trump administration partner with the pharmaceutical industry “to help them deliver more cures and meaningful treatments for the American public.”As per CNBC, China now conducts more clinical trials than the U.S. and accounts for nearly a third of new global drug approvals.<h2 class="st-heading-2">FDA’s Efforts</h2>Last year, the FDA initiated a program called the Commissioner's National Priority Voucher program in a bid to expedite the review of certain drug applications. The program aims to reduce FDA assessment time to one to two months from the standard 10 to 12 months.So far, over 15 drugs from various pharma companies have been awarded the voucher and while one has been approved, another has also been rejected.Earlier this month, FDA refused to approve Disc Medicine’s bitopertin oral tablets for the treatment of Erythropoietic Protoporphyria despite tapping the drug for fast review.However, the agency approved Augmentin XR manufactured by USAntibiotics in December after granting it the voucher. &nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Did Stocktwits Users React?</h2>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/IHE"> iShares U.S. Pharmaceuticals ETF</a> (IHE) stayed within the ‘neutral’ territory coupled with ‘normal’ message volume.The ETF closed marginally in the red on Wednesday but has gained about 29% over the past 12 months.Meanwhile, Invesco Pharmaceuticals ETF (PJP) and State Street SPDR S&amp;P Pharmaceuticals ETF (XPH) added 26% and 27%, respectively.&nbsp;Read More: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/carvana-dismisses-short-seller-allegations-as-misleading/cZRK3kWR4wG">Carvana Dismisses Short Seller Allegations As Misleading: Retailer’s Q4 Earnings Disappoint Wall Street</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
