In a major leap forward for enterprise adoption of Web3, Asphere (the enterprise arm of Ankr) has officially launched a white-glove deployment service for Solana Permissioned Environments (SPEs). These custom, high-performance Solana networks are designed specifically for enterprises and institutions that need both full sovereignty and blazing speed, without compromising on the developer experience.

If you’ve been waiting for a way to tap into Solana’s unrivaled throughput, while maintaining full control over your blockchain’s operations, infrastructure, and compliance—this is it.

Get started building your SPE

What Is an SPE?

A Solana Permissioned Environment (SPE) is a purpose-built, customizable Solana network that gives enterprises the power to define every aspect of how their blockchain runs. Built in collaboration with the Solana ecosystem, each SPE offers:

  • Complete network rule control
  • Custom governance and validator logic
  • Compliance tooling for global regulation
  • Unparalleled performance and UX backed by Solana’s core architecture

It’s the best of both worlds: Solana’s legendary speed meets enterprise-grade sovereignty.

“Solana Permissioned Environments enable institutions and financial orgs to integrate Web3 in a simple, trusted manner. We’re unlocking a new frontier for enterprises: custom-built networks that combine Solana’s formidable throughput with total operational control.”

Tyler Sloan, Scaling Solutions Lead, Asphere

Why Enterprises Need SPEs

Mainnet Solana is a public, open, high-speed ecosystem, but enterprises need specific guarantees around privacy, control, and compliance. That’s where SPEs shine. Asphere’s new service handles the entire lifecycle of SPE deployment:

  • Custom network design & architecture
  • Rapid deployment of Solana Virtual Machines
  • Ongoing security, monitoring & node management
  • Built-in compliance & KYC modules
  • Global infrastructure with regional control

Whether you’re building a financial platform, a real-time social or gaming dApp, or a compliance-sensitive backend, SPEs give you a private, sovereign slice of Solana optimized for your mission.

Use Cases Already Emerging

SPEs are especially suited for:

Financial Networks

  • Permissioned validator sets
  • Gasless transactions
  • Private execution layers

High-Throughput dApps

  • Gaming, social, or streaming protocols
  • Ultra-low latency needs
  • Frictionless user onboarding

Regulated Environments

  • Cross-border compliance tools
  • Infrastructure geofencing
  • Tokenomics governed by enterprise logic

What Sets Asphere’s SPE Service Apart?

Asphere doesn’t just hand you the keys, it builds the car and drives with you. Here’s what’s included:

Custom Network Topology

Geofence your validators, whitelist RPCs, or isolate block production.

Built-In Solana Ecosystem Tools

From native bridges to state compression and Solidity support via Solang, your SPE is future-proofed from day one.

Flexible Governance

Customize block frequency, staking incentives, validator logic, and more to fit your operational model.

Compliance by Design

SOC 2-grade security, KYC modules, custody integrations, and audit support to ensure global readiness.

“With SPEs, your network runs on your rules. Asphere’s mission is to abstract away the protocol complexity so teams can focus on what matters—delivering secure, high-performance Web3 products.”

Tyler Sloan, Scaling Solutions Lead, Asphere

Why Now?

More enterprises are turning to Web3—but off-the-shelf solutions won’t cut it for high-stakes, compliance-sensitive applications. SPEs offer:

  • Parallel execution for massive transaction throughput
  • Near-instant finality to match real-world demands
  • Affordable fees with no compromises
  • Sustainable energy usage that aligns with ESG goals

Combined with Asphere’s full-spectrum infrastructure and support, SPEs become not just a feature, but a foundation for the next generation of Web3 enterprise.
