Solana (SOL)

I think the Solana Super App might already be here… It’s called Jupiter 🧠 → Prediction markets → Lending → Token Terminal → RWAs → Offerbook → Perps → Portfolio → Jupiter Global Sounds pretty much like a super app to me :D https://t.co/uPMNyqnKit

Why doesn’t OpenSea support Solana NFTs? I’ve always wondered this. Feels like an easy market to grab. Does anyone even use Magic Eden anymore? I know there’s a few other competitor marketplaces out there on Solana but feel like OS could make a solid move with it. Hmmm…

As part of @solflare's recent restructuring, my time with the company has come to an end. I'm officially a free agent and looking for my next team. I genuinely believed I was building something at Solflare that I'd spend years helping grow, so this chapter is bittersweet. When I joined them, I rebuilt the content function from the ground up. I implemented processes for social, helped shape the brand voice, hired and managed the social team through multiple stages of growth, and partnered across marketing, product, business development, and the Solana Foundation to bring ambitious ideas to life. Owning content strategy and creative direction on 𝕏 through some of the company's biggest moments was an incredible privilege. I never saw this as just a marketing job. I saw it as helping tell the story of one of the most important ecosystems in crypto. Within my first few months, I went from producing content at Solana Summer House in Los Angeles, to speaking on stage in Boston, to representing Solflare on Wall

Toly ran 14 startups before Solana. None of them worked. He and his future CTO were roommates for over a decade at Qualcomm. Surfing together, shooting ideas around, building things on the side. 14 attempts, zero traction. When the Solana idea hit at 4AM, he called the same people. "None of them panned out. But when I had the eureka moment, I literally just pulled those people in, and they were like, yeah, let's do it." You don't find the right idea. You outlast the wrong ones.

"Voter apathy is one of the classic DAO problems. The average token holder doesn't really want to spend their time governing a protocol" Nick Almond, Head of Governance at Jito Foundation, on why DAO voter turnout is so broken and how to actually fix it "There's limited reason, the average token holder doesn't really want to spend their time governing a protocol. So it tends to coalesce around a cohort of DAO-interested people, a cluster of professional delegates over in the EVM world that coalesced around almost every DAO. You get this shared culture that emerges mainly because there isn't broad participation from the wider token community" "It leads to slow capture around the very most interested people, the ones willing to spend hours on governance forums. The biggest example the other way was Jupiter DAO on Solana, JupDAO, which was very retail heavy and consequently even more chaotic. The degens all turn up, stake their tokens for voting power, and it was pure chaos. High turnout wasn't great either"
