FYI to anyone who uses @coinbase and lives in the US, every year they file a W9 to the IRS. I just checked mine on the app and the estimated gains was large. Come to find out that they start adding up all transfers in and out, so if you don't specifically go into the coinbase.

If you're a web2 developer who is web3 curious (with js experience), here is my recommended quick learning path for Solana dApp development. 1. 2. 3. It will evolve, but a great starting point.

Can I say something without everyone getting sad?. The timing of this could not have turned out any crazier, but its very fitting considering “we won forever” and have come full circle since I joined this ecosystem full time. After nearly four years at Solana Labs → Solana.

There's a reason Base is literally begging for Solana users. They are a corporate bank with no soul, pulling out every trick in the corporate playbook. It all feels incredibly forced. No amount of boardroom meetings will ever match the forged in fire energy of Solana.

Lost a lot of respect for @base leadership over the last week. Very unserious people. Reminds me of Polygon.

In a single day Solana had:. - SOL ATH.- SOL/ETH ATH.- Largest memecoin launch in history.- Highest DEX volume by a single chain ever (more than all other chains combined). IN A SINGLE DAY. Unfathomable levels of cope out there. Be safe.

I’m surprised that the accounts informing their followers about Solana network issues haven’t updated those same followers that the network is hitting 4000k TPS on this glorious day. Weird….

I think it's time to update my pinned tweet with a little more up-to-date links and information for learning @solana so let's do a thread (in order) 🧵.

The Solana Dev page was updated in the last month. The focus is creating a more focused developer journey for new devs coming into the space. Step one was mostly about getting the highest quality learning content up there. 1/x.

@jessepollak @base @solana Bro we have been building a developer ecosystem for 4 years. We are the fastest growing ecosystem of 2024. You have no idea what you are talking about and literary grasping at straws for a narrative. You are a centralized database that is ruining Ethereums name and brand of.

Solana NFTs might not be the most expensive, but the Solana ecosystem NFT tech and innovation is so far ahead of other chains it’s not even funny. Gm.

Imagine working 9-5 with a white picket fence and just living a totally normal life. No JPEGs, no rugs, no degens, no volatility, no memes. just 100% normal life. Cooked dinner Monday, leftovers Tuesday and Wednesday. Eat out Thursday Friday. DISGUSTING.

The new @solana release went out a few hours ago with performance optimizations. As more validators begin to upgrade, performance *should* continue to improve. This is not the “silver” bullet release, and more are expected. At current time the network is performing well.

Some thoughts on the de-evolution of the “eth maxi” and why I can’t take their criticisms of Solana seriously anymore. For the last 4.5 years Solana has been criticized by ethereum. It’s hard to even keep up with the goal post shifting but everytime there was a criticism, solana.

Something I think about A LOT is how rapidly growing the @solana ecosystem is growing. We get dunked on, a lot. It's fine. It does not affect me. I won't stop doing what I do. None of us will. Drag us through the dirt, and try your best. You're not going to stop this train. sry.

Life is crazy man. Today is my 37th birthday, my unofficial 1 year anniversary at Solana Labs and as of this morning the day I lost my grandfather, an extremely important part of my life. You never know what each new day will bring, and today is no different 😞.

The elephant in the room is that we need more users in the space. I suspect that in the current environment we are acquiring roughly zero per day, and most likely negative. We need killer apps that bring value to normal users.

Literally every day so far at 7am here at the @solana Bangalore @hackerhouses a line starts forming with 600+ people waiting to get in, learn and build. I’d say 90% are devs. Half of those have never built on Solana but came to learn. My fav HH so far because I love the devs.

One of my top priorities is improving the @solana ecosystem developer on-boarding experience. Our greatest asset is our developer community. Thinking about having bi-weekly / monthly roundtables with developers interested in helping improve things w/ feedback, ideas, etc. HMU =).

Just an FYI has been updated. Previously it was filled with a lot of information that was hard to navigate. Now we're only share top resources such as @solana docs, @metaplex docs, @SolanaCookbook, @soldevapp and a handful of the top tutorials.

Story time. A couple months ago I was trying to figure out what I was going to do next at Solana Foundation. After 3.5 years focused on the developer ecosystem and education, it seemed like the torch had been passed fully to both the SF dev rel team as well as global.

I just spent 30 minutes on LinkedIn accepting all 500 connect requests. Ended up with 100 DMs and 50 job offers. 5 top chains and 45 I’ve never heard of. Absolute insanity. The TLDR was this.

So @coinbase is now claiming it’ll take an entire hour to process a customer transaction on Solana that happens on chain in 400 millisecond?. What a complete joke of a company. Literal clown show over there. Either that or actual anti-trust law violations. Can’t be sure.
Wow Coinbase actually are you kidding me right now?. Solana is fully up and you can’t do a simple transfer without a one hour delay?

The thing about crypto tribalism is that the majority of users in the world do not care about our opinion. They will use what is fast, what is cheap and what resembles their experience in the web 2 world. We can disagree all we want, but the mainstream picks the winner. Not us.

Tag the person or group in the @solana ecosystem that inspires you to continue to push harder every day. Could be a builder, an artist, a project or community member. There are many amazing voices to choose from.

If you love ethereum, hate Solana, but love centralized eth L2s, you’re literally retarded and a massive larp. You had me fooled for a minute tho, so gg on that.

The evolution on the @solana blockchain is incredible. 2 weeks ago we couldn’t have a decent NFT drop without it failing. Now things are working really well and we’ve moved onto refinement and new ideas. Love to see it.

When we achieve our goal of creating a full blown, end-to-end Solana course we’ll open source it to the world so anyone can use it or teach however they like.
We need to teach more developers how to build Web3. But gating education behind a token feels like the wrong move? . Who is doing cool things in blockchain education that increase access AND are long-term sustainable models?.

I have to say that after a few weeks of joining the team here at @solana I'm blown away by amount of developer activity taking place. Over 10,000 participants in the current Hackathon is astonishing. The future is looking bright 😎.

hey @coinbase, do you guys need some engineering support? how is this not resolved yet?.
Stop staking through Coinbase. their higher ups don't seem to give a fuck about Solana and yet they're making millions of dollars off of their massively staked Solana validators. If you're on ramping to Solana use @sphere_labs

Solana devs are evolving. They are self on-boarding. Their glass eating predecessors are creating tools and sharing knowledge via amazing tutorials. Knowledge is catch up with the tech and it only gets easier from here. Anchor is leading the charge. Up only for devs incoming.

We have Kotlin and Swift SDKs for mobile native Solana integrations but no one currently building much on mobile for Solana. It's time we kick this off. Let's get spread the word and get some contributors and apps building on top of this. Let's get this thing shared!.
Solana.Swift 1.1.0 (Pidgeon Point) and Solana.Kotlin 1.0 (Laguna Beach) with android support where released. Thanks all for the contributions.

Hey brothers and sisters. @SolanaConf is about to start. ETH people will tell you that Solana is 75 devs, and a chain that halts every 5 seconds. Sorry, but it’s faster than your L1, more decentralized than your L2 and bigger vibes than you’ve ever seen. Gn.

Solana the blockchain was able to convince 1000s of developers to learn Rust, just so they could build on it. I remember the early days when they literally said no one will ever do that. Simpler times.

Feels like sentiment in the @solana ecosystem is continuing a straight line up. - network humming.- FUD squashed.- @jump_firedancer - throughput.- @jito_sol - MEV .- @xNFT_Backpack - OS.- @LamportDAO - dev community.- @SuperteamDAO - everything community.- @hackerhouses - part 2
