Decentralized finance (DeFi) has promised a very alluring vision. It opens up a future in which anyone, anywhere, has access to financial services, without the need to use or trust traditional institutions. If we’re being real, what’s actually been delivered sometimes hasn’t lived up to that promise. This ecosystem fragmentation...
The blockchain space is a true wild west at the moment. Each Layer-1 is its own walled garden, hoarding its users and liquidity with jealousy. We're promised a future of seamless interoperability, but what we're actually getting is a fragmented mess. Solana’s co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko has pitched an alternative. Solana’s...
Now Solana, one of the top blockchain platforms, is nearing the close of its $56 million presale. On the whole, it has already sold successfully 91.60% of its tokens! This milestone is a positive sign of investor confidence in Solana’s long-term recovery from the technical challenges it experienced throughout 2023....
Within a few years’ time, Solana has cemented itself as one of the top blockchains out there. It’s well known for high throughput and ultra cheap transactions.

Okay, let's be real. Solana sometimes feels like that friend who always said he’d be there in five minutes. Unfortunately, it often comes two hours tardy, blaming traffic for the delay. We love the promise, the energy, but the congestion complaint? Ugh. Recall those NFT mints that would slow or...
Charles Hoskinson is betting on the Cardano network to grow massively over the next five years. He thinks it has the potential to be bigger than Ethereum’s TVL combined with Solana’s. According to Hoskinson, this expansion will be fueled by homegrown development of Bitcoin (BTC) and XRP Ledger (XRPL) technologies...
Doodles, the vibrant Ethereum NFT project, just dropped a bombshell: their ecosystem token, DOOD, is launching on Solana. Additionally, 30% was airdropped to Doodles NFT holders. Burnt Toast Scott Martin, widely known as Burnt Toast, is the new CEO. He’s driving the company forward in a radical new direction by...
Okay, let’s be real. When I first read the headline “Doodles Launches DOOD Token on Solana,” my brain immediately made that dial-up internet noise. Bweeeeeeeeeeeeep!
