The on-chain yield economy will expand. We will move from a few quality yield products to many competing options. We will see new asset types, governance structures, terms and others. As the complexity grows the average user will struggle to allocate.

For the disinflation parameter, don't believe that simplicity is a good enough argument for the magnitude of change. Would expect a bit of discussion and syndication on the number to get the proposal over the line.

Regarding the ramp-up: fair enough. Expect this to be underappreciated.

[Axi◎m @emptymetadata]

Indeed we need to discuss the inflation and its the correct focus point for Solana.

I like the current proposal much more than SIMD-228. It's simple to communicate and requires literally one parameter to upgrade, with no protocol change needed. It will decrease inflation, which will pressure validators' economics, but that is the point.

Couple of things worth discussion:
- Why is the 30% disinflation correct adjustment in parameter. (i.e. why not 45% or 10%). 
- Is the ramp up quick enough? The SIMD has a long ramp up and the real effect will be 2 years from the approval which might by end of 2028 (too little too late).

The era of free money in crypto is over. Airdrops done, subsidies done, yield compressed. Its a good thing.

All that matters is traction now and the category winners are emerging and will consolidate rest of the market.

@guywuolletjr How is solana a representative of the onshore structure?

[Axi◎m @emptymetadata]

Met a founder for a first time today. He opened a pokemon pack before the discussion. Best ice breaker in long time.

The next wave of innovation in real-money gaming will be AI-native. The category has been marketing-led for 20 years. The product is ripe for reinvention.

Proud to back @nigeleccles, one of the best operator in the category and the team at @BetHog.

[RockawayX @RockawayX]

1/ Real-money gaming is one of the largest, most durable online consumer categories, but it’s fallen into a cycle of marketing warfare and left product-led innovation behind.

That’s why we’re excited to co-lead @BetHog’s $10M Series A round.

The team shares our eye for the market gap, and is pioneering AI-driven experiences while running payments & provably fair gaming onchain.

Last week one of the biggest DeFi exploits ever happened on Solana.

Now that some of the dust has settled, I wanted to share a recap of how things played out on our end and what it means going forward ⬇️

[fen @fennq_]

A major bad actor in the entire situation was @circle.

6 hours to even do something. They allowed 1/4 of a day for the team behind the @DriftProtocol to move funds from SOL to ETH.

We can’t let this not be known. They need to fix up there act.

Back to the investigation.
