Solana moves billions of dollars in value every day. But behind the speed and performance is a complex layer of infrastructure that must be secured. In this episode of The Immunefi Show, Immunefi CEO Mitchell Amador sits down with Alec Harrell, Security Lead at Jito, to explore how one of the most critical pieces of Solana’s infrastructure is protected. Jito plays a major role in validator performance, transaction flow, and MEV distribution across the Solana network. Securing this infrastructure means thinking beyond smart contracts and focusing on something many teams overlook: economic security at the network level. The conversation dives into validator security, liquid staking risks, the rise of Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs), and how infrastructure protocols stress-test systems responsible for billions in value.
