It's hard to be interesting as a brand account these days if you aren't willing to take some risks and shots on goal. For every post that doesn't hit the mark, there's a bunch that do that come through the same creative process. I note the critique but at the end of the day, this (and many others from past and future) just aren't that serious. If people can't take a joke, that's on them.

REV matters Performance matters Users matter TPS matters Low fees matter Devs matter Memecoins matter Don’t let anybody tell you otherwise.

Who controls the memes, controls the Universe

This is 100% true as p-token makes everything to follow much better Steps to get p-token launched: 1. Audit + fuzzing completed <- we are here 2. Validator vote on SIMD 266 3. SIMD 266 acceptance 4. P-token feature in deployed cluster 5. P-token activation IBRL

Price going up solves all problems until it doesn’t. Never be bullied into giving up your common sense.

On revenue, value, Ethereum, and DATs 🧵

Here's a fun fact. From each of their respective inceptions, Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, and Optimism have combined for 14.4 billion transactions. Since Solana's last downtime in February, 2024, there have been 45 billion non-vote transactions on the network.

Right after FTX collapsed in Nov 2022, I was bullish on Solana while most were certain it was dead It was down bad on every metric — token price, TVL, volume — but it passed the “eye test,” something you only understand if you’re an engineer I was proven right, but my one regret was not deploying there sooner That’s fine though because in a week, we get our shot again - and this time, we’re making a proper entrance into the ecosystem.
