C5 kicks off Monday, and invites are already landing in inboxes.
If yours is here, you’re in. Welcome aboard.
If it hasn’t arrived yet, sit tight. We’re still sending them out, and not hearing back yet doesn’t mean anything is decided.
And if one doesn’t reach you this round, it’s not a no. It just means the next cohort is where we’ll see you.
More soon.
If you’re ready to commit to the craft and grow alongside serious @solana engineers, this is where you belong.
Q2 Applications are officially LIVE.
At Turbin3, we’re a high-velocity builder pipeline where growth comes from repetition, feedback, interaction, and real-world execution.
You build under real deadlines.
You break things and learn how to fix them properly.
You graduate with real artifacts and visible proof of work.
You get direct access to our vetted teachers through dedicated office hours to ask questions, clear doubts, and keep progressing with momentum.
Every quarter, hundreds of builders train with us, and many go on to contribute across leading protocols in the ecosystem.
If you’re serious and ready to put in the work, we’re ready for you.

EP. 01: Reflecting 2025 • Powering 2026

From the moments that shaped us
to the momentum ahead.
The journey continues…..
More energy. Bigger plans. 💪
If you are a TURBINE Grad, a @solana_dev or a #RUSTLang developer and are not finding something meaningful to build, work to do, sustainable career, be sure you are following along here VERY VERY closely in the coming weeks.
Doors will be opening, and we will show the PURE ETHOS of TURBINE- since it was started 4.5 years ago by Nate and Jeff, then carried through the bear market and challenges for 1.5 years before we were brought to @solana by @calilyliu and @therealchaseeb with a model and process that has proven effective and successful- one that's focused on people, ethics, loyalties, and best practices.
No - we are not worried about huge number metrics- and that will never change- we are focused on high quality, ethical practices. Our grads working at over 130 projects across the industry show that. Teams that hire our talent (both through our services and outside of it) have retained our grads. Because of talent AND character.
So if you are any of the types of people we mention above- pay attention. The New Paradigm is coming.
Nobody can predict what it is- but those who REALLY know us- they will not be surprised at all. Because it is true to who we are. And it will be beautiful for our Tribe- which is always who we are. TURBINE is about WE... not ME.
Yesterday wrapped three days of Talent Showcase Demos.
Today, Pinocchians are reviewing the PR for @solana Token Extensions, and our P-Lend Protocol.
Later, we have our opening call for 2 Pilot Working Groups.
Good Better Best. Never Let it Rest. Until your good is better, and your better is Best.
What @andrescorreia and @resiquents are doing in our first iteration of Accelerated Builders program @solanaturbine is about to melt faces. Advanced Anchor
Pinocchio
LiteSVM
@magicblock
Surfpool
Indexers
Oracles
And …
You thought our folks were well trained before. This group is our best builders and even a handful of Pinocchians.
Professional.
Leadership
And deep skills.
Ready to serve @solana
Need the top purpose trained @solana_devs for now and next.
Come to the source.
Someone graduated at 26, but waited 6 years to get a good job.
Someone got married at 20, but got divorced 5 years later.
Someone had no education, but became a millionaire at 21.
Someone had a stable job, but felt unfulfilled by 30.
Someone worked in silence for 10 years, then became an overnight success.
Life doesn't follow a fixed timeline.
You're not late.
You're not early.
Sometimes life doesn't work out exactly how we plan, and that's okay. Keep working towards your goals, and show up everyday.
Good times ahead.
Learn to unit test @solana programs at lightning speed with an in-process VM.
🔨Build, test, repeat — lightweight, configurable, and faster than solana-program-test & solana-test-validator.
