You thought $ETH was going to rip but $SOL was going to stay sidelined?

Wonder how this plays out for prop AMMs assuming this unlocks private txns and maker priority Even more interesting how things will shape out now that CLOBs have priority cancels and can tighten the spread

guess it wasn't a great idea to full port $PUMP after all

The @PlasmaFDN Thesis: Everyone is going full stack Stablecoins continue to be crypto’s largest use case, with outstanding supply now exceeding $262B. Tether has grown another ~4% within the last month, maintaining ~66% of that overall market share. Much of Tether’s success has hinged on the adoption and need for a stable and accessible unit of currency in emerging global markets and economies plagued with hyperinflation. This is where the disconnect lies. The echo chamber of CT underestimates the actual TAM of stablecoins. Tether has become the most practical form of digital dollar exposure for millions around the world. Capturing that value by owning the full stack is where most players are moving toward. Codex is now following this playbook as the USDC native chain. It isn’t necessarily about having another specific chain, but rather about distribution. In reality, Plasma’s architecture and GTM strategy is optimizing for global payments and remittance services. Their approach focuses on an already existing demand from corridors outside the US where a majority of the unbanked populations reside. From a narrative perspective, Plasma is currently the most direct bet towards stablecoin adoption outside of CRCL. And if you want to know just how deprived the space is for stablecoin exposure, just take a look at Circles recent IPO success.

I understand that this is satire, but it's really not that shocking once you think about it There's always been a cohort of retail that got exposure to crypto back in 2017 that bought into all these "dino coins" every time the market turns around, these legacy coins always catch a bid. Since retail never sticks around for the majority of the cycles, they're never entrenched and exposed to any new protocols in the space like the rest of CT all they remember is XRP, HBAR, etc. And once the market pumps that's the first thing they come back to

Lots of hints that Solana’s market structure is changing in favor of sophisticated players to market make onchain The shift in the DEX landscape is currently rewarding those that provide tighter spreads and better quotes for deeper, more liquid pairs SolFi and ZeroFi alone execute over half of the volume routed through Jupiter. But these metrics aren’t unique to just these two A relatively new prop AMM called GoonFi is averaging ~$30M in volume daily on a single pair (SOL/USDC) alone This makes me believe that MMs are catching on to this trend and seeing it as an opportunity to widen their presence onchain Don’t think it’ll be long before we catch more of these so-called prop AMMs cropping up left and right

When were they ever not dead?
