AJX News #006 - Why AJX Chose Solana

23/12/2025

When AJX was started, the question was not
“Which chain is trending?”

It was:

“Which infrastructure actually supports what we want to build?”

AJX is not designed around speculation first.
It is built around tools, content, media, and real usage inside an ecosystem.

That decision alone removes most blockchains from the table.

1) Speed is not a feature – it’s a requirement

AJX includes:

  • arcade games
  • tools
  • media
  • interactive elements
  • AI experiments

These are not occasional interactions.
They are frequent, small, user-facing actions.

Solana offers:

  • near-instant finality
  • predictable performance
  • a smooth user experience

If a user has to wait, reload, or think about gas, the experience breaks.

For AJX, speed is not marketing.
It’s usability.

2) Low fees enable real usage, not theory

AJX is designed so that:

  • small actions make sense
  • micro-usage is viable
  • tools can be used repeatedly

On many chains, fees turn “utility” into theory.

Solana’s low transaction costs make it realistic to:

  • burn tokens
  • reward holders
  • interact with tools
  • experiment without fear

That freedom matters more than slogans.

3) Solana feels like infrastructure, not ideology

AJX deliberately avoids blockchain maximalism.

Solana was chosen because it:

  • feels like infrastructure
  • fades into the background
  • lets the product take center stage

The chain should not be the main character.

AJX could exist with euros, credits, or other systems in the future.
Solana simply fits right now as a fast, programmable settlement layer.

4) Ecosystem fit matters

Solana has:

  • a strong builder culture
  • active tooling
  • real products being shipped
  • an ecosystem that tolerates experimentation

AJX is built in public, step by step.
Solana is one of the few environments where that feels natural instead of forced.

5) A conscious non-decision: no hype dependency

AJX did not choose Solana to promise:

  • price action
  • narratives
  • momentum cycles

The choice was made so that:

  • the ecosystem works
  • tools can exist
  • the project survives quiet periods

That matters more than short-term attention.

In short

AJX chose Solana because it supports:

  • real usage
  • low friction
  • experimentation
  • long-term building

Not because it is perfect.
But because it stays out of the way.

Final note

If the ecosystem ever outgrows Solana,
AJX survives.

That was intentional.
