@BFMTV @grok analyse le bilan de Milei au sens large, sur l'aspect financier comme indiqué dans le post initial mais aussi toute la partie sociétale, travail , santé, taux de mortalité etc

I understand the need for clickbait, but your statement is completely false mate lmao.
I'm against the EU on many points, but I also care about not sharing fake news.
The European Commission has published a study on wealth related taxes including net wealth, capital and exit taxes, in the context of broader international debates on taxing high net worth individuals. This is not the same as a formal proposal for an EU wide wealth tax

@therealchaseeb Very basic question: the chain is permissioned and most of the value cannot be tracked by Defi Llama

@kdotcrypto Retention will be the main KPI though, because people farming AURA points don’t necessarily mean they will keep their liquidity in once the incentive phase is over

There is a graveyard in crypto right now and nobody is walking through it. Protocols down 70, 80, 90% from the highs. Still generating fees. Still growing. Still the leader in their category. Just unloved.

@aave at 9x earnings. @solana at 12x with $6 billion in free cash flow. @ethereum at 17x and people are talking about it like it's Kodak. @Uniswap at 8x EBITDA running a chain that two billion people have heard of. @avax trading below its own treasury liquidation value if you squint. @pendle_fi , @ethena , @Morpho — each of these would have been a VC's top pick at this multiple in 2021. Now they're orphans.

Everyone is buying Hype and Near because Hype and Near are the trade. and Hype IS already the trade. The trade is over. The next trade is in the rubble pile.

You don't get rich buying what worked. You get rich buying what stopped working for reasons that turn out to be temporary.

Every name on that list was a CT darling 36 months ago. The fundamentals didn't fall 80%. The narrative did. Narratives come back. Fees compound.

I'm not buying Hype at 45x. I'm buying the names @cobie won't say out loud anymore.

@MacroMate8 @Collector_Crypt 1.The chart includes Pacifica, which many of you claimed were “not part of Solana because they are a hybrid model.”
2. Why did you hide the OI lmao

Disagree. In 2018, we were still “early,” and the space was full of builders with vision, hope, investment, and energy. But despite that, out of the thousands of applications built, how many found real PMF? How many use cases are we actually covering today besides lending, payments, and trading/speculation? Retail also got rugged hard in the process, with countless security issues, NFTs, scams etc. Imagine if the first time you bought an iPhone, it exploded in your hands...would you recommend it, or would you think it was a scam instead?
So yeah hard disagree here, the mass adoption discovery phase is gone imo and 2026 is worse than 2018 in terms of adoption of crypto as we knew it

@Cryptorules2017 @MaxResnick Mainly because of address poisoning and bots. This is not due to users' activity

[Solana Sensei @SolanaSensei]

My honest thoughts about the Solana ecosystem right now:

Even though I’m still extremely bullish, the ecosystem genuinely feels very different from before.

We’ve built more apps, improved infra, onboarded more users, more institutions, more capital, and generated more revenue than ever before.

The ecosystem is objectively stronger.

But somehow it also feels more lonely than before.

The space got so big that many of us don’t even know each other anymore. Things feel more artificial, distant, and transactional.

Back in 2021, the community itself carried Solana on its back. The devs were eating glass 24/7, creators onboarded users out of pure conviction, and the narratives were built organically by the people.

The foundation barely even had a social presence back then. The community had the power.

Now it feels like too many people rely on the foundation, engagement algorithms, institutional validation, and coordinated narratives to shape the culture for them. I mean "Solana kols" are now foundation members.

And that’s where I think things become dangerous.

If the narratives of the ecosystem are artificially constructed and amplified from the top down, the culture slowly loses authenticity. People stop thinking for themselves and just start echoing whatever is placed in front of them.

The culture became bigger, but weaker. It's more efficient forsure, but less human.

A lot of people no longer love Solana itself. They just use Solana because the tech is good or because the current meta is here.

There’s less collective identity, less emotional attachment to the chain, and less genuine support between builders unless there’s financial incentive attached to it.

Back then we all felt responsible for pushing Solana forward together.

Now many people just spectate lol.

The Solana I fell in love with was built around real communities, nfts, friendships, chaos, conviction, and collective belief during the hardest times.

Not just perps, casinos, AI agents, and whatever the next shiny meta is.

Maybe this is simply what happens when ecosystems mature. Maybe I'm just too washed now.

I genuinely miss when the people themselves felt like the soul of Solana.

@plbiojout @NanoCorpHQ

[0xPopaa @0xPopaa]

Agree, but now that this is clear, maybe you could spend less time criticizing Solana in your tweets and more time explaining why FOGO is better suited for traders? It feels like you are constantly fudding Solana to justify FOGO, instead of building your own narrative and demonstrating traction
