The first cohort accepted into the Superteam USA Accelerator is starting to take shape 🇺🇸
24 companies building across capital markets, stablecoins, AI, deep tech, DeFi, consumer, and brands. Each solving a different piece of the on-chain economy.
This is our portfolio today. More buildings will be added as new founders join:
24 companies.
7 verticals.
11 net-new startups brought onto Solana.
Built in the USA. Building on @solana.
And yes... we take 0% equity. We're here to help founders win, not own them.
Sería increíble ver una final entre Argentina y España...
No solo por el fútbol, sino por el caos que podrían montar @SuperteamAR y La Familia. La competencia en la cancha, la comunidad fuera de ella.
🇦🇷🤝🇪🇸
Nothing beats the feeling of sunshine, open water, and a fresh breeze. ☀️🌊
Summer is all about making memories, exploring new horizons, and enjoying every moment. Wishing the entire Solana community an unforgettable Solana Summer filled with positive vibes, creativity, and new opportunities! 💜

.@nickducoff on why Solana is leading institutional adoption
"Seven GSIBs out of 29 have built on Solana. Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan, Citi, BNY, Société Générale, Standard Chartered."
"You've got $3 billion in real world assets on Solana, and over 95% of tokenized equities volume. There's real consolidation happening around Solana."
"In whatever future there is, Solana's going to be a really important part of it."
Orca CEO, @tmoclabs, shares what Orca has learned over their 5 years of sustainable liquidity.
"Building in a way that trust compounds"
"We were the first concentrated liquidity AMM on Solana, and we've been source available since day 1"
"We may have moved slower than others, but we have always moved deliberately...maximize the protection of our users, as best we can. And over time that has resonated with our users"

@heymike777@cashflow_fi І треба ще якісь додаткові бонуси, щоб конкурувати з Оркою. Дивися, якщо вже хтось буде платити і пройде верифікацію, то можна якісь додаткові перки. І ще питання, в тебе там є лончпад токенів? Ти би міг як памп фан заробляти, капітально.
Russia is not over 1,000 years old, as some claim. At most, it is 900 years old – if we count from the establishment of the first political unit in the area of Moscow. The Vladimir-Suzdal Principality, founded in 1125, is where we should begin the political history of the country now known as Russia. Before the arrival of colonizers from Kyiv, the region was mostly inhabited by Finnic tribes.
Rus’ began in Kyiv in the 9th century, which makes Ukraine its direct descendant, while Russia is more of a spin-off – a branch heavily influenced by the Golden Horde. Moscow was under Kyivan Rus’ influence for barely 100 years, but it remained under the rule of the Golden Horde and other Turkic powers for over 400 years. This raises the question: from whom did they actually inherit most of their political culture and traditions?
We don’t say that the United States began with the Kingdom of Wessex in the 6th century. We don’t say Argentina started as the Kingdom of Aragon in 1035, or that Brazil was founded in the days of the Portuguese Reconquista. You get the point. We draw a clear line between the colonizing civilization and the colony that later gained independence and went its own way.
Likewise, Russia did not begin with Kyivan Rus’. It was a remote colony, and that does not make it the heir to Kyivan heritage. In fact, prior to 1721 the country wasn’t even officially called “Russia” – its name was “Moscovia.” They renamed themselves after conquering Rus’-Ukraine, in a deliberate attempt to appropriate its history. Sadly, many people still fall for that story.
When I pass by the 1,000-year-old St. Sophia Cathedral – built while the area of Moscow was still populated mostly by bears and frogs – and then hear someone talk about “Russia’s 1,000+ year history,” I honestly shudder. That is Ukrainian history, not Moscow’s.
The trident was the coat of arms of Volodymyr the Great of Kyiv, who reigned from 978 to 1015. The double-headed eagle, often cited as Russia’s imperial symbol, wasn’t even originally Muscovite – it was appropriated from Byzantium after its fall. Tsar Ivan IV, “the Terrible,” even fabricated a story claiming he was a direct descendant of Julius Caesar. Naturally, that was fake – like so much else in their official mythology.
