Have ~$400k of bids on JUP at 0.70c.
Last cycle taught me that I wasnโt sizing appropriately when I had true conviction in something.
We donโt let that moment pass us by tomorrow.
Likely wonโt get filled, but if I do, Iโll be insufferable.
Hereโs the irony.
When ETH was launched in 15/16, it was the chain of the poors. It did fuck all, but was cheaper and quicker than BTC transactions.
The poors bought ETH because they could afford more of it than BTC.
Those same poors now chastise SOL purchases.
History huh
Big shoutout to the
@GalacticGeckoSG
team dropping a Christmas present to the ecosystem. While I wonโt be selling any
@GeckCoin
I will be donating 10x whatever value the airdrop in my wallets is on Christmas Day to the Irish Cancer Society.
Yes, have been very quiet the last few months. Been building something new.๐คท๐งบ
For the love of Christ donโt let this reveal influence any decisions.
Finally getting to put head above water.
@bsktfi
has been taking up most waking moments.
Every day, Iโm convinced more that ETH is AOL. It led the revolution, people still have emails, but they sat in their castle, innovated poorly, and thought theyโd never be dethroned. UX sucked ass, better options became available.
Kinda like IRC and telegram.
Now weโve confirmed the bull market is back, a topic of discussion from last nightโฆ.
ETH high target is 5x from here at $10k = 2.5x from ATH.
A Solana 5x from here still puts us at ~50% of our ATH.
SOL is going to $400 in the next 2 years. Mark calendars.
if you or someone you love runs a TESTNET node, this message is for you
please upgrade TESTNET validators to agave v1.18.11 to assist in further validating congestion improvements
keep <5% delinquency, etc
NOTE I SAID TESTNET IN CAPS TWICE DO NOT RUN THIS SHIT ON MAINNET BETA
Remember when SOL was $8 and we were bidding with everything we had?
I do. It was Christmas.
And some tourists decided to bounce.
Iโll dump on you at $800 when you decide to return.
Yesterday MonkeDAO buyout of SMB was announced.
Today, offer accepted on a house with a pool and a jacuzzi.
What will tomorrow bring?! Things happen in threesโฆ. Manifest it. ๐
My 5 year old and 8 year old have started their coding bootcamps today in anticipation of the

hackathons in 2024.
They will receive 1000 SOL each for their project submission.

To add to his chadness,
@SOLBigBrain
bid the pico bottom with size and not a peep out of him.
Iโd be spamming the timeline telling everyone how Iโm the second coming.
Irony is that you should have been busy building relationships during the bear. Now the bull is here, youโre chasing and short on quality relationships.
Youโre over trading trying to catch up. When you should now be chilling, like you did when we were all suffering. Now we win.
There are currently 4 cartel groups.
Entry price is:
1 Boogle
20 Queks
1 Skull
1 shhhhhhh (we donโt talk about this one)
If itโs gonna run, itโs gonna run because of one of these groups.
Position accordingly.
Thereโs only 2 non native SOL NFT projects I own that I care about.
1. option room. Youโll never remember it. It was my first NFT. Itโs worth zero.
2. Kanpai Pandas. Cross chain with a metric fuck ton of ideas and execution sitting behind it. Itโs so stupidly undervalued
Been watching from the sidelines as
@cubexch
has been coming together. Just got a DM with a present.
I will happily move my trading activities over there when theyโre ready and continue to long the bottom.
Believe in the builders. Especially the Solana chads.
Cut out alcohol at the start of the year, reduced carbs, intermittent fasting, ticked off some major life milestones. 12kg, 26lbs.
Reduction of alcohol, sugars and stress does wonders. Try it anon.
So the team ACKTUAAALLLUUUYYY made $340k, as Raves highlights in the thread. He inflated it by ~25% by accident.
In my Web2 job, I earn a half milly a year for being a subject matter expert. I have a team of 6 and they all earn $400k per year.
Individuals made $60k in 8 month
HOLD UP
You're telling me that the SMB GEN 3 Team:
(I) Launched gen 3, (II) got a burnout post mint cause of criticism, (III) get released for incompetence and received FOUR HUNDRED AND THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS for this?
What in the Cash Grabbing RUG?

At todays price, there was $80k worth of JTO injected into the
@MonkeDAO
treasury yesterday.
Which is 50% of the allocation gifted for the next 12 months.
Gotta love
@jito_labs
and everything they do round these parts. Literally supporting an ecosystem
BTCโs second bull run was my 2nd favourite time in crypto. I had just been introduced.
ETHโs second bull run was my favourite time in crypto. Financial freedom achieved.
Now we get Solanaโs second run. This is undoubtedly be my last and new favourite run.
The first time the
@SolanaMBS
devs paid
@MonkeDAO
a royalty, after the initial negotiations. They sent the payment to an incorrect token account, instead of a wallet address and those funds are now forever lost.
So many forgotten stories round these parts.
It's been a while since I posted about the validator, we're now up to 650k SOL staked.
Big thanks to those helping support
@MonkeDAO
. Accumulating around 15 SOL per epoch (every 2 days) to help fund the DAO at this level of stake.
Solana has just come back up after being down for the last 4ish hours and we've already done more transactions than every other L1 combined.
Latent demand.
Here's an idea.
NFT's are effectively staked SOL. What if you could earn validator rewards, from holding NFT's and their variable SOL value could be allocated to a validator to earn you rewards?
Feature request for
@xNFT_Backpack
. Search for wallet address and return username to chat about NFT contents of wallet.
@MadLadsNFT
OTC sales much easier.
Itโs going to be a big push to get through $40 IMO.
Still think we need to cool off a little, wouldnโt fade setting $26ish bids and walking away.
DXY looks toppy, if it dies, we rip more.
Conditions like this is why you hold spot and trade ranges on leverage.
No shorts 4 me
Solana is still 93% down from ATH, has been ranging between $8 - $24 dollars for 6 months and youโre selling your coins? Warren Buffet would be disgusted.
This is the part of the cycle where the market takes your money because youโre degenerately investing in shitcoins when you know theyโre vapourware
Tweeted my $SOL purchase at $8~ and pretty happy with the return on it.
It maybe has another leg, but I'm bowing out on that. Still has a long way to go in growth before it can capture the highs.
Wishing the community the best of luck though! ๐ซก
Huge thanks to
@armaniferrante
and
@yver__
for an excellent experience. Know things didn't go according to plan, but it wouldn't be FOCKING MAD if it didn't. Congrats to the whole team too.
@spacemandev
incredible engagement the last 2 days on space.
@SolanaLegend
too. Heroic
We could recreate Cardano on Solana in about 2 weeks and have 80% of everything theyโve built over the past 10 years.
Oh, and weโd blaze the price 10x what that vapourware is currently sitting at too
There are regular MBBโs, there are custom superhero MBBโs, there are 3D MBBโs and upgraded MBBโs but there are only a handful of custom
@MonkeyBabyBiz
Few.
The reason I love crypto is because of permissionless access to manage your own capital.
Dogshit is created everyday. Amplification of said dogshit is the problem.
Take the oxygen away and the fire goes out.
Feel bad for the normie Solana user.
Currently running a validator, and paying for dedicated RPC resources and still only landing 1/4 transactions with priority fees cranked.
Chain is up, but about as usable as ETH. Which is a disgusting experience.
Couldnโt have done this without the support, speed and cost associated with being on
@solana
as a base layer chain.
@MonkeDAO
is a collection of some of the best builders across the ecosystem and we benefit from the support of the
@SolanaFndn
constantly.
Last week was peak Euphoria. Capital E.
You should have taken profits, so should I.
But I didn't, as you likely didn't.
I still have 19 days of stables left.
You should have stables left too.
This is when they're useful.
It's not over, it's just getting started.
@Ravers
FMLโฆ. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
88.5% days of funds raised went to the DAO. 12.5% went to a team of 5-6 people.
So they made $60k ish for 8 months effort and gave 1700 people a war chest in return?
And thatโs a problem?
In Web3, someone working and earning $60k is a problem.
Got it.
Would just like to say a big happy birthday to one of my favourite frens in this space
@TheOnlyNom
Weโve been through some serious ups and downs over that last 3 years round these parts.
The success isnโt a surprise. Man deserves every birthday treat he can consume.
Imagine a known project. Alive for 2 years. Having dealt with the rollercoaster of a bull & bear cycle. Old devs effectively rugging, project continuing through the strife, supporting the ecosystem with next level events IRL, the beating heart of the ecosystem.
Thatโs
@MonkeDAO
The amount of people that get trigged by shit on the timeline. Youโre all a pack of nerds buying pictures and vapourware on the internet.
Yaโll donโt get paid enough if youโre pissing and moaning about
@R89Capital
being mean. Stop with the soy milk.
Donโt give a shit what party youโre associated with. Politicians should be more like this.
Younger, capable of understanding the technology, not just talking party talking points.
I cross-examined
@SECGov
Chair Gary Gensler about the term 'investment contract', which is key to determining his authority over crypto.
Gensler struggled to answer basic questions like whether an investment contract requires a contract. His evasions are deafening and damning.
Lot of discussion of what
@SolanaFndn
should do with its hoard of tokens.
Seems really obvious to me. Native swap, in wallet from ETH to SOL.
Set up a crv style pool that lets you deposit USDC ERC-20 and native ETH. Single swap button akin to
@JupiterExchange
between chains
Donโt know if itโs because Iโve found my team this cycle, but CT feels very fucking different for the start of this run vs the last one.
Less sharing, more isolation, greater amount of rugs earlier than expected.
Still no big hacks or doge running yet.
Maybe just early.
