Solana will help extend Render Network into new applications, such as machine learning and inference training, and unlock new utility through Solana’s best-in-class technologies like compressed NFTs, on-chain order books, and real-time oracles.”

Immediately following the upgrade, the Render Network is scheduled for another upgrade that will introduce Burn-Mint-Equilibrium for the new SPL-based RENDER tokens. The upgrade will also include other features, such as new compute client features. That upgrade is expected to occur in the coming weeks.
