The companies intend to source SOL from institutional investors, lending providers, and the Solana Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>According to a media statement, operational responsibilities will be split between the two firms. Flowra will provide its proprietary Solana infrastructure, including its Block Engine, Programmable Block Policy, and open orderflow auction technologies, while KorDA oversees validator operations, including server maintenance, continuous monitoring, and key management.<\/p>\n<p>The two will also jointly establish selection criteria for validators, guidelines for SOL allocation, and protocols for distributing revenue from staking rewards, block rewards, and <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/learning-insights\/mev-sandwich-attacks-explained\/\">maximum extractable value<\/a> (MEV) tips.<\/p>\n<p>The companies emphasized that any future rollout remains subject to regulatory review, legal compliance, and final definitive agreements.
