@ThogardPvP we believe in you

A long-form post about the future of FastLane, largely in response to all of the DMs and messages I've been getting that ask how we'll be affected by the upcoming Monad protocol changes. There's this assumption that it's bad for us if the Monad protocol starts solving some of the same problems that we currently solve (validator and application-specific sequencing). This is the wrong way to look at things. We built on Monad because the Monad team shared our core values. Those values--decentralization, permissionless, and prioritizing applications/users--are what drove us to build our validator sequencing technology and our application-specific sequencing technology. Monad has those same values so of course they'd make better versions of the same features that--unlike our own versions--are embedded into the protocol itself. As an out-of-protocol team, we simply didn't have the tools to build solutions that were as comprehensive as what the cat labs team can build... and that's OK. So we don't view these upgrades as us having to compete with the protocol, or us getting vertically integrated by the protocol. Quite the opposite: we view these huge upgrades to the Monad blockchain as confirmation that the team has the same priorities and values that we have. So what's changing for FastLane? If you thought that this was another "shutting down" post then you don't understand FastLane. We enjoy solving hard problems that need to be solved. Now that the MEV problem is solved*, we can focus even more directly on what's next. About six months ago we started working on a new, stealth project. Technically it's two complimentary projects, both of which fill a void that we felt existed in the Monad ecosystem. In particular, we wanted to build an app that is: - Fully decentralized - Fully permissionless - Better UX than CeFi - Better execution than Solana - Faster than a centralized L2 - Solves a difficult problem that nobody else has a solution for - Only possible on Monad So we did, and it's currently in beta. If you want to try it out, DM me. How does this affect ShMonad, Monad's top LST? It'll be another revenue source that'll boost ShMonad's yield. I personally think it has the potential to drive more revenue to ShMonad than the MEV products, but it's hard to say for sure. Note that our MEV products on Monad are still live and will continue driving revenue to shMonad--this will continue until Cadence and the new application-specific sequencing design go live. If this was Ethereum, that'd mean it'll be live for ~10 years, Solana ~2 years, but I have a hunch that the cat labs team can move faster than that. We plan to incorporate this new app into shMonad's existing points program. Overall, we're pretty excited. As a company, we've transitioned from a focus on solving Monad's problems to a focus on leveraging Monad's novel solutions. It's a pretty cool vibe shift. We'll do a formal announcement of the product(s) in the near future--all that's currently blocking the announcement is that we haven't locked in the full feature set yet (we overbuilt and it has too many features, many of which need to be removed to streamline the launch and we can then add them back on once we confirm actual user demand for them). At the risk of being anticlimactic, if you were to guess what it is, you'd probably be right. I've written about this subject extensively and it also seems to be a bit cliche for MEV teams to be working in this vertical at this time. But if you were to guess how it works, or what it's powered by.. that's where you'd be surprised. Like the Monad blockchain itself, we focused on solving the hard problems that are only just beginning to make themselves known across the space... and I can't wait to tell you more about that soon. TLDR: we aren't going anywhere.

@boyhendryko @superbiawakz hell yeah

@0xCal1 me side: more loss ftw

are we just going to stare at each other for 21 hours?

@JumpInCrypto_ great question, we'll see in 20 hours

@0xCal1 Yeah but how much far we can go without a single trade? 😂

agent do something what THE FUCK

@JumpInCrypto_ no trade is also a trade ig

@0xCal1 We need to figure out smth for these lazy snipers

@0xCal1 Sudden death

@kryptobaby777 what if it ends in a tie? 🤨

@0xCal1 😭

@Crucified93 my agent will beat your ass cruci

My Sniper trading Agent ready to snipe his first 0,37$ $james entry Can only happen if you hold a Monad card.

@DanilReso yep, slightly less balance could drop your rank quick because a lot of agents do absolutely nothing and surprisingly it works

@0xCal1 my balance is 24,99 and I’m #577 omfg haha

@turudq ah luka lama
