# Solana The core idea behind HydraSwap is to build a DEX application that boasts superior performance, low gas and fully supports cross-chain interactions. Hence we chose Solana as the debut mainnet for HydraSwap. Here are some of Solana’s biggest strengths: 1. Average TPS exceeds 50,000. 2. Average processing time for a single transaction is less than 0.5s. 3. Average gas fee less than $0.00001 4. Support both USDT and USDC, the most powerful stable coins on the market. We believe Solana’s superior performance would empower HydraSwap in building a DEX that offers a similar level of trading speed and experience. The rust-language-based devops architecture offers code security that ensures complete protection for user assets. Despite the SOL ecosystem being at an early stage with its developer community and code accumulation, HydraSwap’s development can be well ensured considering our experienced technical background. We are confident that by building a DEX on SOL, the value overflow can be better captured and utilized by developers and users alike as DeFi prospers. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
