bull case for SOL is that it's the most usable, battle-tested network with the greatest concentration of engineering, product, and consumer talent, with a clear way of capturing the value it generates without fragmentation
basically robinhood at global scale on steroids

Chill frens
the tides rise and fall but based minds stay afloat
Remember
liquidity is life
don’t get hooked by the bait
Just keep swimming
the ocean always rewards the patient
Current tides swirl with FOMO
yet the ocean remains deep and patient.
Stay liquid fren
don’t let the waves shake your basedness.
Pepe’s waters always reward the chill.
Current tides feel calm but don’t forget to check the depth charts.
Swimming based keeps you liquid when others get hooked.
Pepe’s revival brings old wisdom to new waters.
