I’ve been following Sapling for a while, and one thing I’ve found interesting is how @igor_zs1 is approaching the idea of bringing Zcash and Solana closer together.
@saplingdotcash is building a Zcash native launchpad and trading terminal that allows users to access Solana markets using ZEC. Through the launchpad, users can create and trade tokens with their Zcash wallets, while @SaplingTerminal extends that experience to a wider range of tokens available through Jupiter.
What makes this approach different is how it connects the trading experience to Zcash. Users can access Solana markets without having to manage a separate SOL balance for the process. It creates another route into an ecosystem traditionally accessed through Solana wallets.
The platform also has an economic model built around its native token. Launchpad trading fees are distributed between the deployer’s chosen destination, $SAPLING buybacks and burns, shared $SAPLING/ZEC liquidity, and the treasury. Terminal trades have a separate fee structure, with a portion also going towards $SAPLING buybacks and burns.
This connects activity across the platform to the wider Sapling ecosystem, rather than making $SAPLING a token that exists separately from the product.
Privacy is central to the project’s identity, although there’s an important distinction: using a Zcash wallet to trade Solana based tokens doesn’t automatically make those trades shielded. The privacy benefits depend on how the ZEC transactions are handled.
I’ve also been paying attention to @igor_zs1. He’s been actively communicating product updates, sharing the thinking behind development decisions, and has mentioned that he writes much of the code himself. Seeing a founder so directly involved in building the product and communicating its direction adds useful context to the project.
Sapling is an interesting example of how existing blockchain ecosystems can be connected through a different user experience, giving Zcash users another way to participate in Solana markets.
Are you a creator looking for your next opportunity, or have you been waiting for the right project to get involved with?
Sapling is putting 5M $SAPLING up for grabs in its Race to $1M, rewarding the first qualifying coins to hit their market cap targets and hold them for 48 hours.

The $OMNI Space was a bag. If you caught that conversation, you already know the kind of value these discussions bring.
Tomorrow, @Dopaminefeenfr1, alongside @unlimited_ls and the $WASTED community, will be going live to discuss the project’s journey.
From the original dev walking away to the community stepping in, taking over and bringing $WASTED back to life.
There’s a story to unpack, milestones to discuss and what’s next for the project.
If you’ve been following $WASTED, this is one Space worth tuning into.
Set your reminders. Let’s pack the room🤝
@Wastedrespawned
Joined the solana:GexThZHgaswpAQ7Fi8QrHFubjPimUNSYhJiAA7XZpump movement a few days ago, and it’s been interesting watching the community build and push the narrative.
The GTA 6 connection, the iconic WASTED meme and the community’s determination to bring this thing back to life make it worth following.
There’s still a lot of attention to come with GTA 6 yet to launch.
Let’s get $WASTED on the radar of more degens
You died. Your bags didn’t.
@Wastedrespawned
$WASTED is moving beyond the initial comeback narrative.
Since the community takeover, there’s been a lot happening, and the next steps are starting to take shape.
Here’s what’s unfolding:
→ The $WASTED/GTA 6 liquidity pool is officially live on Raydium.
→ LP providers can now create their positions ahead of the upcoming Forge Staking farm launch.
→ Holder rewards are being introduced, with the minimum holding requirement reduced from 1M to 250K $WASTED.
→ 50% of daily creator fees will go towards GTA rewards for eligible holders.
And there’s more to come as the staking farm goes through testing before its public launch.
Beyond the developments, we’re also taking the $WASTED story to X Spaces.
Today, the community goes live at 4 PM CT to discuss the takeover, how the project made its comeback, what’s been achieved and what comes next.
This is a conversation worth catching if you’ve been following the journey.
The original dev may have left, but the community chose to respawn.

New week, fresh opportunities. Back to watching the projects, following the builders and seeing who actually delivers.
$NILF, $OMNI and $WASTED are still on my radar. Different narratives, but I’m interested in how their communities and teams execute from here.
Also keeping an eye on $WORM, $SAPLING, $MASK and $LOCK. Some interesting risk/reward setups being discussed around these, and I’m looking forward to seeing how they play out.
Shoutout to @DopamineFeenFr1, @heat@90210maryjane and everyone putting people onto interesting projects and doing the work behind the scenes.
Wishing y’all a green, productive and profitable week ahead. 🤝
@rizzkola@DopamineFeenFr1 What stands out about $OMNI is that privacy doesn’t stop at moving money, it extends to how you swap, access AI compute, and interact onchain, while the token’s burn mechanism ties part of that utility back to $OMNI itself

One thing I’m paying attention to on Arc is how projects are approaching token launches and, more importantly, what happens after launch.
@mercurifinance is an interesting project to watch.
The platform connects token creation, bonding curves, automatic graduation into Uniswap v4 liquidity pools, and trading within a single ecosystem.
It also builds around USDC, from launch fees to trading, creating a more dollar-native experience on Arc.
Beyond the product, Mercurifi has introduced two campaigns designed to engage different parts of its ecosystem.
The 1,000 USDC holder campaign rewards participants based on the amount of USDC they paid for tokens they continue to hold over time.
The 500 USDC creator campaign allocates 50 USDC to each of the first 10 launches that meet the campaign requirements.
To qualify, creators must buy their token at launch and hold for 48 hours without selling or transferring any tokens. They must also link the token’s own X account in its information and ensure the launch is original.
Both campaigns address important parts of the token lifecycle: holder participation and creator commitment.
What interests me most is how these incentives translate into actual ecosystem activity.
Can they attract genuine participants, encourage better launch practices, and help projects maintain engagement beyond their initial launch?
Making token launches accessible is one part of the equation. Building an ecosystem that sustains participation and liquidity over time is the bigger challenge.
That’s what I’ll be watching as Mercurifi continues building on Arc.
