Over the last few months, my team and I have been building up a project in stealth that we believe will have a massive impact on the Solana ecosystem.
Happy to say that stealth is no longer required. Next week, we begin to share our vision with the community. LFG.
so why give a f*** about
@MotleyLabs
?
it's kind of like a group project but your teammates are actually super smart & instead of writing a history report you're actually building the largest coordinated network of open source protocols and creators on the planet
👇🧵🌎
A new dawn. Solana's largest group project begins on April 30th.
What you see from Night Market's launch is just the start: a foundational, open-source interface for trading NFTs - governed by the community.
The evolution of Night Market in the coming months will be awesome

@nightmarketio
absolutely spectacular in ways Solana has never seen before, and I'm happy to say that it's almost go-time.
Open-source NFT infra owned by community. LFG.
What's in the pipeline for
@TheMotleyDAO
?
- A high-performance, community-governed NFT marketplace (
@nightmarketio
)
- A top-tier NFT collection to represent our brand of rebels (
@motleyfriends
)
- A governance structure to align NFT-Fi's builders and creators ($SAUCE)
⏰🔜
We're looking for a talented frontend engineer to help us out with
@nightmarketio
! Ideally based in US timezones. If you or anyone you know is looking for work, please shoot me a DM or reply. 👀
Super well-timed Twitter Space by
@EasyEatsBodega
@XicoSR
@LibertySquareHQ
. Appreciate you guys for setting up & letting me speak.
Moments like this show us how strong the Solana community is. Builders, creators, and degens refusing to quit on the ecosystem. LFG
@solana
.
The infrastructure Holaplex is building is truly web3.
Your Solana address is now your wallet, social profile, marketplace, and NFT gallery.
Brought to you by open-source technology 😇
🚨ANNOUNCEMENT🚨
We’ve updated profiles! This is big...
Now anyone can sell, place offers, & buy from more than 10 million Solana NFTs via your Holaplex profile! This release is a game changer bc it turns all wallets into NFT stores where direct peer to peer sales are possible
Part of our mission at
@TheMotleyDAO
is to create a more composable Solana. One where we can collaborate on open-source projects and share the rewards with contributors.
Complete alignment between builders, creators, and traders is what we're after.
Build better together.
It pains us to see marketplaces making unilateral decisions that impact the Solana ecosystem in ways that break composability.
Our mission is to make sure this type of decision-making gets left in the past.
Let's build better together. 🤝
This
@metaplex
discussion is spicy! I have opinions, but those can be shared another day.
From what I understand,
@solanalabs
& homies are building out interfaces that will allow the NFT ecosystem & infra providers to accommodate multiple competing token metadata standards.
Builders. Creators. Traders. Get ready for takeoff!
Night Market - Solana's first open-source, community-owned NFT marketplace - is launching very soon.
We've received a lot of buzz lately and figured it's time to reintroduce ourselves.
Here's what you should know 🧵👇
When’s the last time 5K people have participated in a Twitter Space to simply vibe about Solana? Today was refreshing.
I believe our ecosystem is going to be just fine 🫡
Amidst SOL's turbulent price action,
@EasyEatsBodega
,
@XicoSR
, and
@LibertySquareHQ
hosted a beautifully-timed Space today that had us all ready to run through a brick wall.
Here's a thread of highlights & perspectives on why Solana's builder community ISN'T LEAVING 🧵👇
@knownasdollar
Shooting my shot here... we're launching the first community-owned, open-source NFT marketplace on Solana this quarter. 100% of tx fees governed by users.
@nightmarketio
We have all the launchpad tools you'd need.
Happy to chat if it's of interest!
Pumped to release Night Market's official points system!
Trade on
@nightmarketio

As the only fully open-source NFT marketplace on Solana, we're turning on the jets to make the experience
Let's make trading fun 🚀
Introducing our new points system - Tickets 🎟️
Earn Tickets for trading NFTs, rank up at The Arcade, and win NFTs, SAUCE, and more!

Welcome to Night Market - the new home of Solana's creators, collectors, and degens.
👇🧵 Here's what we're all about. All interactions will be considered.
we'll also integrate all the amazing builder teams on solana to turn night market into a composable superapp.
@GenesysGo
@cardinal_labs
and all the other homies gmi
NFTLA was a success. Super refreshing to see teams pushing the boundaries of the new creator economy we live in. Also, music NFTs are going to change the game 100% and
@holaplex
@solana
@wetheblake
are leading that charge. 🤘🏼
then, we'll go live with an open source community-owned nft marketplace that puts 100% of the fees under the governance of the people who use it.
@nightmarketio
Interested in music NFTs?
I started a Twitter Community to create a general hub for sharing ideas on how to make Solana the best blockchain for the music industry.

Startups are an absolute rollercoaster, but this week was spectacular. Trying to remind myself how important it is to step back every once in a while to enjoy the journey.
Happy Friday everyone 🤝

After a few boring months finally there’s an upcoming project that the community can get excited for & maybe bring me out of thread retirement. Thanks
@notryankim
for the conversation, looking forward to the community learning about it.
It just fires me up to see great creators like
@b2kdaman
find their community on Solana.
Huge shoutout to
@earlyishadopter
,
@Peanug420
, and
@notjohnlestudio
for continuing to be ambassadors of the ecosystem and most certainly making an artist's day. 🥂
Everyone in the room was confused because his work... is certified INSANE. The fact that an artist of this caliber was flying under the radar was mind-blowing.
@zen_llama

@xNFT_Backpack
We're building this at
@nightmarketio
! JWOI.
It's more about aligning incentives between the marketplaces, traders, and creators rather than a standalone technical issue.
We also need to remember to be kind to our indexer & data feed frens like
@heliuslabs
.
naturally the more teams that become part of this, the bigger it gets and the more open source projects we can launch to support the solana ecosystem
imagine what you get when you combine open source w/ solid ideas, great talent, and resources
Incredibly excited to be joining
@holaplex
! We're empowering artists and creators with the tools to engage their community through NFTs. Interested in partnering with us on this mission? My DMs are open 👋
Hola Comunidad! Let's give Ryan Kim a warm welcome to the Holaplex familia. He's joining the team to focus on partnerships and community outreach. If you are a creator, company, or indie anything looking to collaborate with us please hit Ryan up!
@notryankim
veTokens are fantastic for incentivizing network participation, and I'm really excited to see more experimentation on Solana related to DAO governance.
Imagine voting with your wallet to support specific subDAOs and initiatives 🤝
After the Solana migration, all HNT holders can lock up their HNT as veHNT for voting power and rewards via network delegation.
No more 10,000 stake required.

Web3 BD is unlike anything in traditional SaaS/Web2. Much like a founder, you need the ability to context switch. Org structures are typically looser and the environment you’re selling into is constantly changing.
I’m a firm believer that we need more S-tier BD in the space.
Scrolling through the notifications on our

Holaplex is (and always will be) for the community.
The tools to take true ownership of your creator journey are already here, and they're getting better every day. Believe that!
No gatekeeping. No BS.
When we worked with
@conceptarthouse
&
@Doctor_Peepee
on the art for
@motleyfriends
, we wanted to make sure that the collection could be relatable for a global community.
Very proud of the result, and absolutely stoked to finally release our project to the world. 🤘🏼

The Motley Friends are a global network of rebels, builders, and creators.
No matter who you are or where you're from, you'll find a place in our community - and our art reflects this.
We like the art.
During
@holaplex
's 10k Follower Twitter Space,
@b2kdaman
came up to speak about his experience with NFTs. He shared how difficult it was to stay confident in his work.
we can only push the solana ecosystem forward if we express willingness to work together. especially in this bear market, this social experiment is much more of a group project than it is pvp.
It’s really so fun getting to host and participate in spaces… learning from intelligent and thoughtful people across the globe!
(Getting alpha constantly dropped on my head is a nice plus)
