🔗 Solana Features Deep Dive

Compressed NFT Certificates

Using Metaplex Bubblegum, certificates are minted as compressed NFTs on a Merkle tree. A single tree (maxDepth=14) supports ~16,384 certificates at ~$0.001 each.

// Certificate minting flow
const umi = createUmiClient(authoritySecret)
const result = await mintCertificate(umi, MERKLE_TREE, {
  name: 'Superteam Academy - Intro to Solana',
  symbol: 'STCERT',
  uri: metadataUri,
  courseName: 'Introdução ao Solana',
  studentWallet: '7xK...',
  completionDate: '2026-02-16',
  grade: 'A',
})

Token-Gated Courses

Advanced courses can require SPL token holdings for access:

// Verify token holdings before granting access
const hasAccess = await verifyTokenHolding(
  connection,
  walletPublicKey,
  requiredTokenMint,
  minimumAmount
)

On-Chain Progress

Quiz completions are recorded as checkpoints on-chain via the Academy Anchor program, creating a verifiable learning history.
