Looking for a beginner video series on

development?
I've tried to condense the basics in 8 videos here -
Thanks

for sponsoring the series.
It was only a matter of time before our bounty hunters became members and eventually got full-time offers from projects across the world.
Here's to celebrating them and listening to their story!
In the first edition of

One of the use cases: You can convert your games into xNFTs, distribute them to a set number of people, and they can be freely traded on a NFT market. 🤩
Judging a hackathon from my college.
While most sponsors are from web3, most college students seem to despise the web3 space. Most submissions aren't in the space.
But there seems to exist a new college blockchain group I'm excited about.

Will try to build some parts of it in public.
Biggest challenges -
1. Keeping private keys secure (prolly need some sort an MPC setup)
2. Finding relevant markets/memecoins
3. KYC?
Overall it feels to mirror general engineering sentiment in India. Most folks despise the space, but a small group of extremely motivated folks are scrambling to grow it.
ANNOUNCEMENT.
Solana is live on thirdweb.
We're excited to bring our full stack web3 development kit and network of 60,000 builders to

It seems like VCs love putting money in things they don’t understand but feel could be the next Facebook. No one cares about the next physicswallah. Is cash flow king or the next billion dollar idea ? Only time will tell.
The purpose of the series is to get Web 2 devs kick started on solana development. It covers the basics of blockchains, live coding in Typescript to interact with smart contracts and writing your own smart contracts in Rust.
Congratulations
@SuperteamDAO
on the milestone! Glad to be a small part of it, and also grateful for all the opportunities sent my way from the DAO.
Onwards and upwards 🚀

1. It feels like students, at least from my college, default to the space being a scam.
2. Lack of good developer tools.
3. College students tend to follow hypes, which at the moment seems to be AI. Most projects were AI related.
Blown away by YouTube's recommendation engine.
Heard a song at a shop randomly today.
Totally forgot what the song was.
Searched for punjabi song latest -- no match
Searched for punjabi love song latest - it was the second result.
The song was released in 2020.
How does it know?
Agora ($API) is down to $4.73 from highs of >100.
It's current market cap is ~500 Mn.
Lots of video API startups are privately valued at more than the market leader.
Public markets are brutal.

A friend exited a bootstrapped business for $9 Mil. He's 25. The website is a simple typeform with the business focussing on selling. No hype, no announcements, just money hitting the bank account.

Curious to know why client side performance affects the number of people in a room (I'm assuming you mean 1k listeners)?
If there are only two speakers in a room, how would my performance differ for 1k or 10k listeners, considering I'm decoding only 2 videos either way.

Is there an easy way to map these feature messages to commits in the solana codebase somewhere? To understand what code segment got activated?
