Alchemy Acquires DexterLab to Meet Growing Enterprise Demand for Solana Infrastructure

What began as a months-long collaboration has now evolved into a complete acquisition. Alchemy, the blockchain development platform used by companies like Robinhood, Worldcoin, and Coinbase, has acquired Solana-native infrastructure provider DexterLab to expand its support for Solana-based enterprise applications.

The deal reflects a broader industry trend; over the past two years, infrastructure firms and cloud providers have increasingly turned their attention to Solana, aiming to tap into one of the largest onchain user bases and growing developer demand.

Focus Shifts Toward Solana

DexterLab is known for powering Solana infrastructure for organizations like Google, Chainstack, and the Solana Foundation. Its high-performance archival solutions and experienced team, led by co-founders Aurimas Sabaitis and Ernestas Petkevičius, bring Solana-native capabilities to Alchemy at a time when demand for reliable infrastructure continues to rise.

"This acquisition is a significant milestone in our Solana journey," said Alexandru Minulescu, Engineering Lead at Alchemy. "By combining expertise and resources, we'll scale our infrastructure and accelerate innovation across the ecosystem."

Minulescu added that the partnership stemmed from a shared drive to build high-performance tools and address real-world challenges faced by developers working onchain.

Solana Sees Growing Institutional and Infrastructure Momentum

Solana is increasingly at the center of institutional and developer interest, with major investment managers filing for Solana ETFs and a growing number of applications tapping into its network. EVM-focused infrastructure providers are now moving to expand into the Solana ecosystem to keep pace. 

Alchemy's acquisition of DexterLab is the latest in a series of moves that reflect this shift, as more companies look to establish a presence in one of the most active and widely used blockchains.
