I'm honestly a bit tired of people looking down on users because they’re here for the money.
Yeah, I mean… obviously they are. And so are the teams and investors.
They might use heroic-sounding words, but when you really break it down and look behind it, money is obviously the primary motivation for all of them.
So please, let's stop the hypocrisy

I feel like it’s time for a new generation of @solana champions
The og’s are distracted by boomer coins, politics and table stakes apps
What happened to focusing on builders and innovation on solana?
BREAKING: The SEC is set to release its so-called "innovation exemption" for tokenized stocks which will pave the path for trading digital versions of securities, per Bloomberg.
Details include:
1. In a "surprise move," the SEC is leaning toward allowing the trading of tokenized assets
2. These tokenized assets would be tradeable on decentralized crypto platforms
3. The move could "reshape the landscape of the American stock market"
4. This would also be one of the US' biggest shifts into crypto infrastructure yet
Tokenized assets are rapidly expanding.
