not sure if xPoints from xStocks is a good idea
if people are gonna farm it to get tokens - again in crypto we will have fake growth and numbers that will drastically go down after TGE. hate it
This highlights a broader problem: we still don’t have a blockchain where you can build truly invisible, frictionless UX for mass adoption.
Great infra exists. Great UX at scale still doesn’t.
Today I want to talk about my first real pain point when building on Solana: smart contract "rent"
Calling it "rent" is misleading. On Solana it’s closer to a deposit — you can fully reclaim it at any time by closing the account.
That breaks my original idea: I was happy to pay the SOL rent for users — as long as the deposit stayed mine.
In practice, ensuring that across arbitrary DeFi protocols is far from trivial.
