New feature for Solana assets: decompression

If you receive a compressed Solana token or NFT, you can now decompress them on the asset page.

I don’t even know what decompression is

It's pretty expensive for teams to airdrop Solana tokens to users that don't already have that token (you need to create a token account for each user per unique token) so you can use zk compression (built by Helius and Light protocol) to airdrop a ton of them for cheaper. This makes Solana airdrops cost efficient

TIL, thank you!

ETH could benefit from something like this as well, there's a few NFT's I've that don't render in certain apps because the media is large.
