Solana has released a new and innovative feature called Blinks (Blockchain Links), which lets acts that happen on the blockchain be turned into links that can be shared.
With this new and useful feature, users can start Solana Actions from anywhere on the internet, even from social media sites like X (formerly Twitter).
The addition of Blinks essentially connects the Solana blockchain to the internet as a whole. Users can now make links that let other people do different things on the blockchain, like voting, giving, minting, swapping, and paying with SOL, and share those links all over the web.
With this feature, you can interact directly with SOL blockchain from any site that lets you share URLs.
Solana Introduces Shareable Blinks
Blinks is a new primitive in the Solana ecosystem that makes it easier to make links for on-chain acts, as explained in a tweet. It’s easier to sign and send transactions with Solana Actions, which are APIs that return SOL transactions.
Users can do these things with a local app, mobile buttons, QR codes that can be scanned, and now Blinks that can be shared.
When Blinks was released, it was an important move forward for blockchain technology and user access. SOL lowers the barriers to entry and makes blockchain interactions easier by turning on-chain activities into links that can be shared.
As Blinks become more famous, Solana Actions are likely to spread to many digital platforms, which could take the blockchain to a whole new level.
