Everyone bridges to solana. Alright L2 nerds. If there is a 3 way bridge between base, solana and ethereum, where every state root has a full proof and all the remote chain txs ex-blobs are shared into its own local blobs, and has an exit escape hatch for censorship, which chain is the “real”L1? It’s whichever one has exported the most of its coins into the remote chain. The remote chain will stay on the same fork as the bridged chain to prevent the bridged coins from going to zero and ruining in the local DeFi ecosystem.

@amystreet @rajgokal @Myth_ ay listen, that was a compliment at the time trust 💯

One time, I was waiting to talk to @rajgokal at Solana Hacker House LA in early 2022. I watched @myth_ asked Raj “So, what’s your job at Solana?” And Raj goes, “Uh… haha… i’m the founder”. I thought it was the most embarrassing thing ever, until moments later @themoonboots introduced me to Raj as “the Kim Kardashian of Solana” Idk who wanted to die of embarrassment more that day me or myth

@mariachakk @RepublicCrypto @DraftKings @SInow @LiveNation @joinrepublic yellah i’ll be there

loyalty points are overrated ... too many programs, not enough attention / incentives. so ... how do we fix it? i'm speaking this thursday on a panel: “From Fans to Stakeholders: Reinventing Loyalty in the Ownership Economy” w/ leaders from @DraftKings, @SInow , @LiveNation. curated by @bigdog_max let's rethink what loyalty really means

The volume of futures trading on $SOL on the @CMEGroup exchange is a at all time high - @glassnode x.com/glassnode/stat…

@moothefarmer usdc has a certain amount of demand which is quantifiable via mcap, its total demand for that one asset. the company itself generates revenues beyond just the asset, plus it has licenses, ip, tech, commercial contracts, BANKS etc. kinda evident tbh

Make this make sense

@zen_llama @meleemarkets the llama has spoken

When we started building @meleemarkets we set out to simply build a permissionless prediction market. However, as the product has evolved, it’s become so much more. When we started, it was clear the trenches were cooked and people wanted something new. We were excited by the idea of prediction markets and thought it could actually lead to something novel if we could figure out how to make them feel like meme coins with uncapped upside. We believe we have cracked that formula, but I did not expect how relevant that solution would become. This new tokenized attention meta, infoFi or whatnot, has really crystallized for me the belief that prediction markets are far better vehicles for attention speculation than tokens. What has become crystal clear is that tokens have major inherent flaws when used as proxies for attention: • Attention is ephemeral, while tokens are forever. ❌ Internet memes, news events, and “virality” are inherently fleeting moments. The value comes from capturing the moment; it is intrinsically ephemeral, and that’s core to why it’s valuable. When packaged in a permanent market, collapse is inevitable. • Selling a token is a prisoner’s dilemma. ❌ Everyone wants to make money, but no one wants to tell you when exactly they make money. We try to sell meme coins as a collective rally when every “community member” knows deep down there’s nothing collective about the ponzi game. It’s a catch-22: if they’re honest, the value disappears. So we spin collective delusions, act powerless, and repeat the cycle with no way out—justifying each go-around as a novel “experiment.” 🤡 It’s the literal definition of insanity. • A meme token’s value is a Keynesian beauty contest. ❌ 99% of meme coin buying boils down to “I’m buying this now because I think someone else will want to buy it from me for more later.” We even have the gall to label this “infoFi,” knowing full well the information is useless because it’s completely circular. Incentivizing people to tell you what you want to hear is the opposite of “infoFi.” It’s just straight-up noise. For Christ’s sake, it’s even in the name of these apps. All we’ve managed to do is crowdfund bot farms instead of hiring them from sweatshops. Most days I swear I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. I look at what’s hitting the market and it truly feels dystopian. Yes, attention is valuable, and speculation is a powerful force, we’ve proved that over and over. That’s not an interesting “experiment” anymore. Melee excites me because it truly is something new. At the core of how Melee works is the belief that speculative attention is far more valuable when anchored to real-world information. Making money is great for attention, we respect and acknowledge that reality with our uncapped upside. ✅ But what I really hope to prove with Melee is that **being right** is great for retention. It is not easy. It’s a new paradigm. We are throwing countless hours into building a familiar and easy way to enter this new form of market. But what I can say is that, by design: • Prediction markets have graceful exits. ✅ You state your belief up front. We want you to win, to share that you were right, and not feel guilty about where those winnings came from. They came from your convictions. Be loud and proud. You were **right**. • Prediction markets are ephemeral. Launch as many as you want. ✅ Attention is fleeting. Your reputation is not. Prediction markets are anchored to outcomes that let participants engage in the moment without being left holding the bag. • Prediction markets produce useful information. ✅ This is actual infoFi. We want to spark discussion, for participants to debate, to argue their beliefs, and to put their money where their mouth is as a statement of conviction. I’m not interested in your incentivized, passionless slop takes. I want to hear your beliefs, your opinions, your convictions—and reward you when they’re actually proven valuable. End rant.

While the jury is not out yet, Solana has the fundamental building blocks for something to break out on mobile and certainly many apps are making headway. So today I’m joining @Solana as an advisor to help select companies launch & grow their apps. For a couple years I've been discussing with @rajgokal and @toly ways to get more involved. The ecosystem has now matured to a point where Solana apps can now top the charts so I'm ready to help build. More details to come.

Trading will never be the same. Dark pools handle ~60% of U.S. trading volume—but they're centralized, opaque, and missing in DeFi on Solana. Watch our <encrypted> CEO @yrschrade demo our Dark Pool live on @solana devnet and our private testnet ↓
