As far as I am concerned not much about Solana has changed the last 48-72 hours from a fundamental perspective. Solana is still innovating.
Just some forced selling, some panic & a lot of fear.
If you turned bearish, what changed besides price?
After seeing the parabolic move and interest in $BONK, and seeing $SHIB and $DOGE marketcaps stay completely irrational.
I am done fading memecoins.
There is clear demand for these coins. People want to have fun & rally around a common meme. I'm here for it!
My 1 Year Twitter Anniversary is TODAY. When I joined, SOL NFTs was not really a thing. I aped HARD. Bullish on how far it all has come. Crazy also to think I had never used Twitter before either and yet here I am 1 year later with 210K+ followers, 100% organic. ❤️ u all!
Lets make sure we LEARN from this:
- Remember how you FELT when $SOL was $240. Exuberance, on top of the world, etc.. Good. Next time you feel like that, SELL immediately.
- Now check how you feel NOW (sad, despair, regretful). Next time you feel like this, should be BUYING.

You KNOW I had to grab the 🧠 one!
Starting to think going neck deep into NFTs was not one of my better ideas…
With the primary narrative for NFTs stripped away I am failing to see the appeal anymore (gaming assets being an exception). They are now literal jpegs that just want to be coins so bad.
Hello. My name is SOLBigBrain. Nice to meet you.
For real though. My plan is to switch up my PFP a few times to support different Solana collections, so do NOT ape into anything I switch to. I am trying to have FUN again. Vibes been off for me lately.
WOW. Big balls to ask for 5 SOL. Mint price is not the problem if team was A+. But for a fast follow “brand” cash grab it’s INSANE. If you mint this, you deserve to lose your SOL. 🤷♂️

It's my Birthday. Finally feeling better after covid and getting back on the grind. Couldn't really celebrate it over the weekend so will make up for it this upcoming weekend! Hope to get back on a regular posting schedule soon...
0/ I am seeing a common TREND lately..
Most projects who get in touch with me, only know ME via this account and think of me as an "influencer".
I APPRECIATE that sentiment and am proud of the audience I have built here on Twitter so QUICKLY but SOL Big Brain is SO MUCH MORE...
4/ I do this NFT shit for FUN. I run this account for FUN. I want to see ALL of you SUCCEED and make life changing money as well!
2022 is off to a ROCKY start but zoom OUT.
I still BELIEVE we are EARLY.
Ignore the NOISE and get some CONVICTION!
ENJOY the PROCESS!

Sub $10 SOL. Feeling the pain, but smelling opportunity. Still being patient on heavy capital deployment currently.
BUT If any fund is sitting on locked SOL till 2025, needs liquidity and looking to sell at a discount to spot, hit me up. We are buying. 💰💵
Today is a bad day. Got lazy and got a DM on Telegram from a portfolio company telling me to claim my vested tokens. Was distracted but verified the guy sending the DM was the same one in multiple group chats. It was. Ends up he was hacked. No mention from the team that the…
0xc0819 just lost $1M+ to a phishing scam.
- $625k in USDC
- $550k in ETH
- $115k in USDT
- $200 in Gearbox
USDC, USDT, and Gearbox were stolen using permit signatures.
Eth was stolen via Blur Pool by phishing a signature to bid 333 eth on a "ghost" NFT.
Quick reminder not to dwell on your misses or losses.
Think of it like basketball. The best shooters, keep shooting. They trust in themselves.
I got phished for $1M+ in August of last year. My viral $SOL buy screenshot is from less than 1 month after that.
Shooters shoot.
This looks like the easiest move for anybody and everybody at the moment.
Read and take action.
You do NOT need a Saga phone. This works on ANY phone I believe. I had my brother set it up on his iPhone.

I done fucked up.
Delayed on minting my
@y00tsNFT
for WAY too long. Missed all the 1/1's . Missed all the y00ts point accumulation. Missed vibing in the sub DAOs.
No more delays. Ripping 166 t00bs today. Will do it live in 30-45 minutes so I can get those fuckers staked.
0/ Some random thoughts on this lovely Sunday...
If you are flipping NFTs, you may do good, but those who absolutely crushed and changed their lives were those who HELD with conviction.
@DegodsNFT
were avail to all at 4-7 SOL forever. BUT could you hold through the pumps?
I have come around to $BONK.
The
@coinbase
listing of $BONK can not be under estimated.
When retail wakes up after $BTC passes ATH, they will ape memecoins. $BONK is well positioned to capture a chunk of it. The beauty of memecoins is their upside is not based on reality.
2/ Was one of the EARLIER Solana believers. Bought Solana during their private round via a connection.
On top of THAT I was looking to ADD to my $SOL position in mid 2020 when very few people believed in them. This was BEFORE any news on Sam being involved was public...
The $GECKO ticks all the boxes to me:
- Native meme to Solana for past 1-2 years
- Gecko enjoyers in
@GalacticGeckoSG
were deranged enough to stake an NFT for 365 days well before they knew of any possible rewards
- Diamond hand whale holders
- It's a fucken GECKO
Unpopular opinion. Real Solana believers are those who bought the Solana Mobile phone for $1K on launch to support the chains wild vision.
The buyers who bought it with the idea it was risk free for the $BONK airdrop are smart traders not particularly core Solana believers.
For those who missed the news...
I received my $1M loan back from
@MonkeDAO
and they paid Hades the final installment as well.
So deal is complete.
@MonkeDAO
now officially owns the IP of
@SolanaMBS
.
Things been quiet on the Monke front, but with Breakpoint soon, stay tuned!
It was obvious all along, I just ignored it.
Besides L1/L2 tokens, memecoins are the only other category that can reach and sustain irrational marketcaps. I will allocate accordingly going forward.
If you still have capital available. These huge dips are when you want to be buying.
Yes we could go lower, but these prices are solid on any timeframe beyond a few days. Zoom out. Not much has changed on my thoughts regarding where we are headed. Just a healthy dip.
What again is the reason I should tell my friends to be buying NFTs?
Programmable royalties was a compelling piece of it. Without that, what else is there? They seem to be just jpegs that are acting more and more like shitcoins.
Which one of you said I was gonna be dumping my $DUST?
@frankdegods
always keeps it REAL and I trust he will figure out how to accrue value to $DUST over the long term. Happy to ride this to the moon or 0. Lets RIDE!!!
0/ A few thoughts on this Tuesday afternoon….
Bear markets are sobering and leave a majority of us sitting in our own thoughts of regret and thinking “Why didn’t I sell X at Y”.
Let me tell you a quick story…
Hate to be the one to SAY IT...
Stealth Drops ≠ Only insiders buying up, then start SHILLING
Stealth Drops = Projects building a community OVER TIME, dropping the mint randomly out of the blue to reward those EARLY followers.
DO BETTER!
No, I will NOT dump my $CHONKY on you.
We know the market loves Dogs, but my bet is the market will at some point fall in love with a cat. Maybe, just maybe it will be a Chonky cat.
Went to an normie event the other day and I started talking crypto. One gentleman asked me how much of my net worth is in crypto. I calmly replied 98%. That is NOT a joke.
Stocks? Nope. 5% Treasuries? Nope. You may never have an opportunity like this in your life again.
Let me ASK all SOL NFT projects out THERE...
WHAT is your NARRATIVE??
WHAT makes you DIFFERENT??
WHY should people CARE about YOU??
HINTS:
5th X Animal Project - NOT GOOD ENOUGH
ART is COOL - NOT GOOD ENOUGH
10th to Offer Royalties - NOT GOOD ENOUGH
SHILL & SELL ME!
I can't really believe a certain segment of people in NFT space think that the new
@YawwwNFT
marketplace that ignores Creator Royalties is somehow good for the space.
You MFers that greedy?? You all are really trying to run this shit into the ground in this Bear market.
I usually don't hold a lot of ETH anymore. Just recently though I remembered I participated in the Plasm Network (now Astar) lock drop 3 years ago & locked up 500 ETH for a 3 year period to get max tokens. The ETH just recently became claimable. Love finding money laying around!
Monkes around 50 SOL look like value to me. Just grabbed 11 more.
First PFP NFT project on Solana.
History can not be changed.
Don't let them tell you provenance doesn't matter.
It is the NFT project that started it all for me and many others on Twitter.
Monke army strong..
Do the SIMPLE stuff. If you are rocking a PFP for your favorite community and you see a NEW member post that they JUST bought and joined, PLEASE take the extra few seconds to comment on their post & welcome them to the community. FIRST impressions matter A LOT!
Creator royalties were NOT broken. They didn't need to be fixed. They just got caught in the crossfire between marketplaces in a war for trading volume.
Beating an incumbent leading NFT marketplace on features or even their own fees has been fruitless to date. So here we are.
Honest question. What benefit are you all getting out of FUDing Polygon so much lately?
I don't use Polygon much but am happy for their success. All this outward anger/hate to Polygon, feels reflective of our own chain insecurities. I ❤️ SOL. It's innovative. Lets be better.
These airdrops on SOL are injecting a ton of fresh liquidity that will stay within the Solana ecosystem to buy NFTs, memecoins, etc... + we still have the $JUP airdrop ahead of us.
As much as things have been up only on Solana for a bit, I still think we got more upside ahead.
Sadly it is the casual retail NFT buyer who is being hurt by all of this drama.
My net worth in NFTs is minuscule. Sending it to zero doesn’t change my life but it does for many others.
Beyond that, this is a big step back for SOL NFTs. Who sees this drama & is excited to buy?
So what do you all think exactly will bring excitement back to SOL NFTs?
Vibes are down, traders have caused havoc demanding 0% royalties only to have volume dry up and rotate elsewhere and left the collectors to clean up their mess. Curious if you left, what will bring u back?
I hate it when I really like a project but know the bigger holders are traders/flippers and not holders so I refuse to ape in. 🤷♂️
People hate on Whales, but I would take a whale who has longer time horizons all day over traders/flippers.
Have bought 0 Aptos NFTs. Don't care much about Aptos. Seems like some are making money, but it is an extremely crowded trade. Not very organic. I also do not think Aptos wins long term. I like
@SuiNetwork
over Aptos personally.
Bonkmas by
@bonk_inu
was a huge success
$BONK is the gift that keeps on giving
Appreciate them keeping the community vibes strong and 🙏 for the Holiday airdrop.
Quick congrats to
@JupiterExchange
and the team.
They built an insanely good product over the past 2 years. One of the best on Solana.
Airdropped a stupid amount of $$ to everybody who had used them.
Sure some comms could have been done better, but overall a huge W all around.
It is important to know for people who go through a similar trauma as I just went through with this phishing drainer.
Do not panic & try to make it all back gambling or on leverage trading with a hope of making it all back quickly.
The plan doesn’t change. Patience.
EXCITED for this launch today. Looks like it most likely won't make it to a public mint sadly. The hype is REAL on this one, so will try to pick up immediately post mint on the marketplace. Once again KUDOS to
@Botborgs
for taking their time to build up the DEMAND properly!
BOTBORGS! WE ARE RAPIDLY APPROACHING OUR MINT TIME.
We want to preface the launch by stating that there IS a chance that the mint does not make it to public, albeit a very slim possibility.
The only link for minting (both presale and public) is =
Just left probably 50 Discord servers. Holy shit. When the $$ run out, most teams quit. Now I need to figure out how to sell all these dead NFTs. Probably will just burn most of em.
I listened to a Spaces the other day with
@iamcarljones
speaking and I think he mentioned Boondocks & other high quality animated series cost $1-1.5M per EPISODE. So I assume this is not gonna be a cheap mint. It costs real $$ to produce quality. Will be interesting. I'm MINTING!
Have absolutely loved to see the rise of
@Claynosaurz
. I don't own a huge position but they have elevated Solana NFTs not only with their animation quality but their IRL activations as well. Best kid friendly NFT on SOL by far + it is easy to want to see
@Cabanimation
WIN! 🦕🦕
There is currently a lot of noise in the
#Solana
NFT market.
Be patient, resist the urge to chase pumps. Think where an NFT project may be in 1 month time or the future.
Usually during these times I take it easy. Target the good ones and I am fine missing the pump and dumps.
3/ Why post this? Partly for RESPECT. I am partly tired of being treated as JUST an "influencer" who projects want me to be just a paid shill.
I am honestly one of the top early stage investors in the space. Solana is just one of my MANY huge conviction bets that have paid off.
