The huge Solana wave bw Dec and April was exciting and challenging

We peaked at 160k DAUs and saw more than half a million people onboard onto the platform. Many many low quality wallets but it is what it is

It ended with congestion starting March 2, and the chain getting unusable by the end of March for us and practically everyone else. It was very sobering for all the Solana dApps

The intense growth and then pullback pushed us to build fast and rush our scaling solutions to market that were probably normally a year out

Now we sit at the door of the next phase, all the big puzzle pieces we envisioned are around the corner

All metrics are stabilizing and returning the calendar about 2 months, still around 100k DAUs on most days

Still the biggest consumer product in crypto and collectibles by a wide margin

But one thing is very different from a few months ago

The product is much, much better

And that’s led to incredible growth in what we call our “p5 DAUs,” a custom measure of our most engaged users who use the product as intended

This cohort is what you dream of having for a consumer app. The age old idea is to find 100 users who really love you, not just like you. We have 25,000 of those users every day (!)

And I am so pumped about the next few months. I will be loud about it and keep pounding the vision. Only up

This has been my state of the union address, thanks for listening 😂

Spending 24 hours in Silicon Valley has already recharged me with enough optimism to survive another 4 months of European pessimism.

Simply her choice. Free mental health support should even come along w/ an often traumatic decision. In shock to see @scotus paving further US society’s degeneration.

[Vincent Diallo @Vincent11D]

I sometimes wonder why/how my peers and I are failing great founders. 12 months mentoring an #LGBTQ+ genuinely mission driven brand growing 2x to $1m revenue in 2021 on the path to 3x in 2022 and still not a single piece of investment in view. 51% of recurring customers. Anybody?

[Arkive 🏛 @arkive]

📣 The people of Arkive have voted and we're excited to announce our first acquisition: the ENIAC Patent.

Exactly one month away from launching my next thing and four months removed from closing down @b8ta.

There won't be an alpha or a beta or simply a landing page. We're full sending it.

Promise it will blow your mind.
