Solana Labs has introduced new asset extensions based on the SPL standard. This is a significant update for the network, which is designed to make tokens more flexible and customizable for businesses, institutions and developers.

Today, Solana Labs announced the introduction of new token extensions on its platform, which provides unique opportunities for creating tokenized digital and real assets. These new extensions represent a significant update to the network library and make tokens more programmable.

Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of Solana Labs, noted: "Extensions are based on what makes Solana an ideal environment for developers. Solana is the first network that provides a similar level of integrated interaction between developers and users."

A representative of the Solana Foundation, a blockchain development support fund, expressed the opinion that these extensions will help issuers of crypto assets adapt to a dynamic regulatory environment.

This software package includes 13 plug-ins that provide various functionality, such as canceling transactions, collecting commissions through the built-in royalty system, zero-disclosure proofs, partial control over issued tokens and blocking the transfer of funds. These features will be especially useful for stablecoin issuers.

Solana Labs also plans to add new features to this extension library in the future.

According to a press release, Paxos and GMO Trust have already assessed the prospects for an upgrade and intend to release stablecoins on the Solana network.

In addition, the Solana Foundation has announced a competition for grants to finance projects related to new extensions. It is important to note that in 2023, the number of active developers in the Solana ecosystem reached 2,500 per month, which underscores the interest and activity around this platform.
