Jupiter’s done it again. Needless to say I’ve been a huge fan of these guys since discovering their aggregator in November 2021. The perps UX is incredible. One of the best teams building not just on Solana, but in crypto.
BREAKING 🚨
@JupiterExchange
announces 2 major features:
1) GMX style perps with already 200k liquidity live.
2) eUSD style stablecoin backed by liquid staked $SOL and giving 10+% APY to $SUSD stablecoin holders.
In addition they’re announcing $JUP airdrop with 40% of the
@redacted_noah
and the
@StrataProtocol
team have created an incredible token sale program on Solana. The ease of setup and the overall mechanics are top notch. This should be the gold standard in token launches.
Who wants to play a game?
We think more of you should witness the epic play-to-mint Genesis Habitat experience we made.
So we’re giving away full sets of crystals every Friday till
@mralbertchen
“Papa Albert” gets mad.
But there’s a catch (1/6)
The difficulty of developing on Solana has been exaggerated. The learning curve is steep, but once you’re past it, you can fly. I tend to spend a lot less time writing smart contracts than I do building services, UIs, etc. The learning curve is just imposing, lots of new concepts
South Korean professor Cho Jae-weon invented a toilet that turns poop into energy and pays people in digital currency.
A person defecates~ 500g/day converted into 50 liters of methane gas which generates 0.5 kWh.
Toilet users earn Ggool, a literal sh3t coin.

All FTX funds on Solana just moved to this wallet:
Not sure if it's the same malicious actor on ETH. No selling txs so far. Hopefully it's just an internal move in response to the "hack".

@SolanaConf
ngl this tweet won me back.
This really resonated with me.
In 2022 when the Slope Wallet hack happened, we appeased the community by relaunching the KI token.
Lots of Discord and Twitter praises then.
All temporary feel-good moments. Led to a bunch of issues later.
In order
i used to try to move mountains to appease the community in times of chaos. every single time it's backfired.
the truth is, on the internet you either stand by your conviction or you're a pussy.
i've been a pussy in the past.

V1 Public Beta is LIVE 🎉
Since starting to build on
@Solana
in '21, we've been building one of the best communities in the space.
What lies ahead is even bigger.
Join us in building the next chapter of Genopets as we unlock the story of the Genoverse - one step at a time.
Just refactored our NFT metadata fetching logic to the DAS API and I'm blown away by how elegant it is. Hats off to
@0xMert_
and the gigabrains at

for supercharging the Solana dev experience.
🚀 The wait is finally over! Coming live from

v0.6.0 is LIVE, bringing you Augmentation, Genodex, and so much more!
Unlock endless possibilities for your Genopets and dive into an even more immersive experience. (1/4)
We have arrived. The Roads To Augmentation are now complete.
In 7 months, we chipped away and shipped a tremendous amount of new features & improvements.
We did what we said. We shipped 🚢
There’s a whole lot more in store for Phase II, including a New Road! We’ll recap tmrw.

With a history of successful e-commerce ventures, Albert pivoted to Web3 in 2017, earning accolades across EOS, 0x, and Nifty’s NFTs, and is fervently expanding global Web3 gaming.
Meet him on 8/31:
One of the goals I’ve been obsessed with in web3 has been to allow everyone to share in the value inherently generated by their existence. I once thought that medium was their data, but I’m starting to realize it may be their attention.

#WeAreYGG
Yes Solana sucks ass rn.
The bright side is everyone I know is doing their part in trying to resolve this. On the dapp side there are new best practices to land txs that I am implementing as we speak.
I’ve known both founders for a few years now and have largely stayed neutral, but marginfi’s deliberately toxic brand strategy really came back to bite them.
What many rage-baiters don’t realize is that outside of the extremisms of the CT reply guys, the majority of your
some of you may have seen the drama with marginfi, but don't know the backstory of solend vs marginfi.
let me catch you up...
starting during the bear market, we were on the receiving end of multiple attacks. there's no shortage of examples, so I'll highlight just a few.
I still remember the GRAPE IDO on Raydium brought down the network in ‘21.
@genopets
launched immediately following that and we already saw massive improvements in stability. 2 years later, Solana is now a complete beast. Looking forward to what it will become in 2 more years.
Solana handled the $JITO launch. It took $JUP like a champ.
It handled
@MadLads
mint while we shoved the
@helium
L1 into it.
Builders don’t care about some TPS measurements in a lab. We want battle hardening. Solana looked death in the eye and said “‘Not Today.”
Accelerate.

As a founder, your number one job is to TELL THE STORY. The rest is secondary.
This is why this year I’ve offloaded most of my day-to-day operations work to my trusted team.
This year, we push.
Here's what you need to do:
1) Spend way more time telling the story.
Too much time on engineering? Hire a VP eng. Too much time on product? Hire a head of product. Too much time on people? Hire a head of people.
The story--the VISION--is the one thing you can't outsource.
Ending the year with a bang. Here’s our P2P marketplace. List SFTs on our dapp marketplace, buy them from the mobile app using fiat. All fees automatically buy back GENE. Powered by

@solana
TIL that some Solana NFT platforms don't follow the Associated Token Account standard and validations will fail for those NFTs. For developers, it's probably wise to just check for authority and mint to accommodate. Was a problem for our habitat minting. Solved now.

For those that were looking for public mint, you can pick up Genopets Bitcoin Babies on Magic Eden secondary:
They value different things and there are more of them than you or I.
It gets more extreme when you get to India or the Middle East, when everyone is under 30! Those societies are going to see seismic shifts.

Because many addresses are hashes of the public key, not the public key itself. This adds additional protection as hash preimage is quantum resistant. However, once you have spent from an address once, the blockchain will have record of the public key, which exposes it for theft.

- Massive learning curve. Devs will need to learn new skills fast and expand their area of focus.
- Most premium games just worry about the game client. F2P games have to worry about client + backend. Web3 games client + backend + web dev + smart contracts.

@metaplexstatus
suddenly breaks all your NFT minting code but the entire codebase is dependent on a one-year-old (1.2.5) JS SDK. 😂
This past week has been cathartic: people are finally waking up to the fact that Solana is a legit chain with great tech and builders. Feeling vindicated after the amount of undeserved ridicule we endured in the past year for sticking with Solana.
Solana has always had culture and SBF never had an iron grip. I know this because I've been here for almost 3 years working on it with my friends.
Just because it looks cool to you now doesn't mean it's ever been uncool to be here. Try to leave your priors at the door.
Welcome.

1) Solana actually has one of the highest Nakamoto Coefficient among major L1s and higher than basically all current L2s.
2) Even disregarding that, and for the sake of argument say Solana is no more decentralized than a SQL database (aka sqlana.) Find me a SQL db that is
The window of opportunity is now open for you to work harder than you have ever worked in your life. If you’re a builder, I look forward to seeing your submission.

Whether it’s a bull market or a bear market, we all tend to underestimate its duration in the beginning of the cycle, but overestimate it near the end of the cycle. I wonder where we are right now.
After some observation, I don’t think 90% of our users have the know-how necessary to self-custody. We need sth between that vs CEXs. Perhaps an app you interact with dapps through - with guardrails and 2FA.
If any1 is building this - Our community would prob. love to try it.
on one hand, wallets should be open source. however, the popular wallets have millions of users. blast radius of open sourcing + revealing a vulnerability would be pretty large.
not advocating for closed source wallets, but that's a tough spot to be in.
