1/ I'm sharing the 10 ideas I'm most excited about in crypto right now. If you're building something in crypto or thinking about doing so - check it out.

We’re building lots at Coinbase, but we don't have time to tackle everything. So I figured I'd share these. Bear markets are the best time for building - why not start today?

[Antifun @antifunapp]

1/6

Antifun is a token launchpad that eliminates sniping and MEV opportunities.

[Solana Incubator @incubator]

1/ Applications for Cohort 3 of the Solana Incubator are now open!

Join us in NYC for 3 months starting September 2025 to grow your project alongside the Solana Labs team.

We're seeking 4-6 high-quality teams who are ready to build the future of Web3. 🧵👇

[dara @dvrvsimi]

hello @solana_devs 👋🏾, i've been working on a crate that extracts idl from solana programs (including native👀) with elf analysis, tx simulation and ix parsing⚒️

check out the repo below, watch out for a demo video tomorrow 🚀

[Ebunayo.eth 🇳🇬 @Ebunayo08]

Growth!

[Maxim @maximschmidt94]

We freakin' done it. Solana now has a proper Debugger.

[Cork Protocol @Corkprotocol]

When it comes to depegs, timelines are critical.

Each Cork market operates with fixed-duration terms. Make sure you're timing the opportunity.

[Jacob Creech @jacobvcreech]

Solana developer tooling is evolving

Over the next 6 months I expect devs will use:
- Surfpool, not solana-test-validator
- Gill/Kit, not web3.js
- Litesvm for testing, not mocha
- Pinocchio, not solana-program

DX is leveling up

[Solana Foundation @SolanaFndn]

Request for Proposals announcement 🛠️

The Solana Foundation is looking for contributors to improve open-source developer tooling on Solana — with up to $75k in funding available.

Two new RFPs:
— Solana Math Library Improvements

@DUKETHAGREAT @JupiterExchange @jup_mobile @jup_dao @jup_uplink @JUPCatdets @weremeow @kashdhanda Congrats💯

[dara @dvrvsimi]

it's okay to be a beginner

[Paul Razvan Berg @PaulRBerg]

Web3 users shouldn’t have to choose an EVM chain.

Just like web2 users are never asked to pick an AWS region.

[Hari @hrkrshnn]

The next thing to study is Rust 🤫

Don't miss out 🫡

[Hari @hrkrshnn]

PSA: If you're using `tx.origin == msg.sender` to prevent smart contracts from interacting with your contracts, please read this.

The next Ethereum hardfork (Pectra on May 7th) includes a change that allows you to work around this check (EIP-7702).

If you built your smart contracts to only be interactable from externally owned accounts (EOA), please double-check your assumptions. This was common in some early DeFi contracts.

I heard from a founder of a DeFi protocol that blackhats are already testing for this. Do not wait!

[0xhuy0512 @0xhuy0512]

I just added more stuff to the awesome-solana-security repo, please check it out:

There's a brand new section called "Codebases to Study". I hope the repo will be even more helpful.😁
