A recent public scrutiny has emerged around Solana, as it still labels its mainnet 'beta' after more than five years of launch.
The scrutiny revolves around the beta tag, transparency of Foundation wallets, and client diversity on Solana's validator network.
The CEO of Helius Labs, Mert Mumtaz, argues that Solana's beta label is arbitrary and meaningless, given its scale and revenue.
The debate between Mumtaz and critic Balarchrex also touched upon the transparency of the Solana Foundation's holdings and the presence of multiple clients on the mainnet.
