the difference between me and you is that you're asking yourself "when can i stop pushing this boulder up the hill"
hoping '25 repeats '21 and you can finally "make it"
while i've accepted the absurdity of the human condition
that human meaning is found in the endless struggle

how to start a failed startup:
1) attend every conference
2) rent a fancy office space
3) hire faang engineers
4) hire bd/sales before pmf
5) glorify headcount
6) enter infinite partnerships
7) listen to vc product suggestions
8) make everybody happy
9) chase narratives

Drift v2 leverages Solana's unique properties to create a decentralized limit order book (DLOB).
The DLOB relies on an off-chain Keeper Network to match & fill orders.
I'm looking for a dev that's passionate about DeFi/Solana Infra to help bootstrap the DLOB's Keeper Network 🧵

If you're on the fence, I suggest you send it. I did the May 2021 hackathon and ended up falling in love with the tech/community. Great opportunity to learn rust and start a project to work on full-time.

if solana defi fails, solana nfts fail
nfts are valued based on future utility and the failure of solana defi would foreshadow a lack of utility for nfts

How did Drift add prediction markets so fast?
Prediction markets are fundamentally a derivative that settle to 0 or 1.
The primary change to Drift was allowing the margin system to safely support the 0 or 1 settlement logic.
With perps, the margin requirement for a position is

Feel like most crypto teams have poor execution as:
- easy fundraising hurts fiscal discipline
- it's tough managing a remote team
- most founders are inexperienced
Plenty of space for focused teams to come in and win.

vanilla CLOB won't work on-chain
modifications at the validator or protocol level are needed to even the playing field between takers/makers
drift v2 attempts to do this at protocol level via its dlob and auction system

as sol went from $32 to $60 the last 2 week, drift v2:
- handled $3.2m in liquidations
- sent $64k in revenue to if
- had $15 in socialized loss

3 months from now solana performance will look much much better
Main things that will drive this:
1) core solana devs are working extremely hard to improve the networking stack
2) dapp develops will modify their architecture based on the new level of demand

If your team is new to solana development, you should almost definitely just use anchor
Time-to-market likely trumps the performance improvements you get from writing a `native` program
"But i see smart devs saying anchor sucks"

bull case for Solana is that it’s sort of like a rocket ship that’s been patched up with duct tape and popsicle sticks yet it somehow still manages to break through the stratosphere

it's a meme that all of tradfi runs on CLOBs
exchange is often facilitated via other mechanisms
dark pools proliferated because of the `mev` being leaked to hft firms
amms/clobs will provide backstop liquidity but ultimately defi will see its own dark pools

eth blocktimes are too long (10s) to conduct dutch auctions on-chain, thus more of UniswapX will be forced off-chain
solana blocktimes are 400ms, granular enough for the drift v2 dutch auctions to be conducted entirely on-chain

i didn’t have a cs degree and started learning to code at 21
keep grinding son
Say you graduated last year with your CS bachelor’s. No internships during school. Been doing lots of job applications, got some interviews but no offers. Grinding leetcode + side projects all the while.
Do u keep pushing on? Start looking at non-swe roles? What’s ur next move?

When you work for a big company, you see the specialization of employees and think "I certainly don't know everything I need to start a company".
But the specialization comes from big companies squeezing out efficiency/value. You don't need to know everything to start a company.
