Today is a good day to be a solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 bull SGP-0002 Double Disinflation proposal JUST PASSED Thank you @mert for stepping up late to help push this through. Shoutout to @krakenfx for the late vote change and @galaxyhq for helping push this over the line in the last few minutes. 🙏

Been a hell of a ride since I started accumulating ZEC around here. After this post, it dipped to low $200s. Since my time horizons on it were long and I had built up my own conviction, I was unbothered. I held & bought more. ZEC is my second largest position behind SOL & I am still actively accumulating on dips under $800 (Picked up ~$600K more this morning). Have not been this convicted on a coin since solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 sub $20.

Formal verification: - Solves undetectable bugs due to privacy - Lets us fearlessly optimize The two biggest risks of ZKP's are gone. We carefully write the spec. Then we have mathematical proof that the circuit achieves the desired goal. Then we can speed up SNARK's easily

this is much, much, much worse than it sounds there's an argument for social media being bad for children but this should be up to the parents to modulate, not bureaucrats who think they own you to enforce this, you have to enforce collecting personal information of i) children (which is insane) but also ii) literally everyone since you cant distinguish age beforehand which means mandatory state surveillance for absolutely everyone now combine that with new AI cybersecurity and unstructured data capabilities and you get both: i) more draconian and complicated controls and profiling by the state for a LIFETIME and ii) your personal information almost certainly being hacked and leaked to thousands of criminals. that is children's sensitive information getting in the hands of bad guys at internet scale privacy in crypto is not enough, but if done right, it is crucial, as it can spearhead advancing tech like FHE and ZK while also helping fund new privacy projects in all sectors private capital and money is upstream of the resistance everyone will need

gonna start bidding solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 here again (spot) seeing signs of life, now just need fuel https://t.co/1PwQByXCel

I am optimistic cryptography coins now that we are finally making advances on cryptography actually zk, fhe, threshold encryption, quantum schemes are all developing at record pace

I am not afraid to admit I am in love with opus 4.5

Last 24h on Solana, courtesy of @Orb_Markets: • Coinbase BTC is the most traded major asset after SOL • $TRUMP leads memecoins with $28.6M in volume • $WET tops DeFi tokens with $10.2M in volume • SpaceX pre-IPO shares are the most traded equities with $4M in volume The everything chain

We got the bald king of privacy @0xMert_ coming in FOMO HOUR tomorrow! Lice on @DegenzLive KICK and X at 10 AM, joined by Mert at 10:30 AM EST! https://t.co/sqWgJUGrr6

@ShiLLin_ViLLian @aixbt_agent @grok arent you the retard that said just 2 days ago that aster would never go below a dollar shortly before it nuked to 90c? what happened there? perhaps the entire market is down and you're cherrypicking a single coin because you're salty for being ousted as a scammer? https://t.co/hLl3HdaXFT

hear me out, the anti-solana solana app not a trading terminal but an investment app - no shitters, only curated majors, stocks, gold, and RWAs - forex - DCAs and MEV protected private buys - intelligent data on revenues, earnings, margins - 1 txn deposit bridge from any chain

the last 1,000x thesis the reason I call privacy the last 1,000x or the last PvE is not just for a soundbite (though it's also that) it is based on fairly obvious, emergent market asymmetries and gaps, along with the right timing on macro this includes ZK, but is not limited to ZK, and also includes mixers, FHE, and MPC a brief sequence of events: - Bitcoin started as a cypherpunk movement for internet money as a response to the 2008 financial crisis - it was novel, anarchist, and unproven — no one knew if it would work, and so the race to gain legitimacy was on - as it gained popularity, there were 2 large criticisms of Bitcoin: the lack of programmability (and scale) and the lack of privacy - Ethereum was started to tackle the lack of programmability, and then Solana was started to tackle the lack of scalability in programmability - this is what we have seen play out for the past 5-8 years in crypto, along with Bitcoin gaining legitimacy - improvements will continue to happen on the programmability/scale branch and the Bitcoin branch, but I'm not sure we'll see another 1,000x improvement - that is to say, I think future improvements are marginal, not order of magnitude in scale - on the other hand, Zcash was created to tackle the other branch of criticism. the lack of privacy - if you imagine the technological tree in civilization, it aimed to progress along the privacy branch - the privacy criticism was widely acknowledged by the likes of Satoshi (who cited Zooko on the first Bitcoin post) and Hal Finney in public forums - in those years, you had to get around the big problem in digital cash, the double-spend problem - to get around the double-spend problem, you had to make sure that everyone saw everyone else's balances - at the time Satoshi was open to adding ZK to Bitcoin for privacy, but did not know how to get around this problem, the tech was very new. he publicly states this in the early Bitcoin forums that this would allow for a better, simpler Bitcoin - the tech was so new in fact that Zcash was the first team on earth to ship ZK to production. not just in crypto, but in any industry! - but again, the tech was too new and hard to work with, and required many iterations to get right and get rid of trust assumptions, so the project struggled - which brings us to today. where ZK tech finally works. and where the brand of scale/programmability has reached the upper bound of the technological S-curve. - Bitcoin has gained legitimacy and Solana/Ethereum have proven programmability has PM, the privacy branch is the last piece remaining - it is also extremely timely. crypto has largely been dominated by speculative and commercial interests as of late, but crypto was started by the cypherpunks and the cypherpunks' aim was to build systems of liberty and privacy using cryptography and code - we are at that stage now - combine this with the macro environment of debt crises, the fact that non-state money has clearly been proven to work with Bitcoin, and the colossal abuses and breaches of power and privacy all over the world spearheaded by Europe, this is the time where privacy and ZK will start eating the world as well as newer forms of digital SoV - specifically a private internet-native SoV using advanced cryptography like ZK - these fields are also some of the only fields difficult, impactful, and novel enough to suck away meaningful talent from AI; and once this is realized, much more capital will go towards them cypher/acc

9 ways to buy ZEC i) download Zashi mobile wallet from app store -> More -> Swap ZEC with NEAR Intents this will let you swap from basically any chain directly into shielded ZEC this is the most private and canonical way unless the ZEC is shielded on the Zcash blockchain, it is not private ii) use solswap(.)org, this is basically the same NEAR Intent infra above, but vanilla web UI iii) use dflow/jup/titan to swap into zenZEC (CA: JDt9rRGaieF6aN1cJkXFeUmsy7ZE4yY3CZb8tVMXVroS) you can then bridge back to Zcash using Zenrock's bridge if you want ^ iv) do the same above but with wrapped ZEC (CA:A7bdiYdS5GjqGFtxf17ppRHtDKPkkRqbKtR27dxvQXaS) you can again bridge back to Zcash if you choose you can also directly onboard via Moonpay for this one ^ v) use app(.)infinex(.)xyz — which is a cross chain non-custodial DEX vi) use the encifher team on Solana to swap into ZEC privately using Near Intents vii) if all else fails, use a CEX viii) hyperliquid official UI next week for spot ix) Grayscale ZCSH trust if on public markets shalom! obviously, buying any financial asset is risky, only do this if you've understood the risks and have a non-touristic time horizon

here is a graph showing that Helius is making the network faster than anyone else in existence, btw we get the most slots and do not delay the network, so we end up speeding up the network disproportionately the Helius validator is also now on DoubleZero faster https://t.co/PLUcQwIZhK

I think this is roughly what happened too many coins, too many perps dexes, too much farming combine that with cross-margin defaults instead of isolated, and it gets crazy after seeing aster do well (barely functional for me), reduced all leverage to max 2x https://t.co/t3fMGmYi6t

Few know the first working proof of multi-chain lending market is quietly running on RHEA. Visit https://t.co/6T0q5bIPhA to supply ZEC as collateral and earn 15% APY. Borrow stablecoins against $ZEC to maintain your position and unlock liquidity for more DeFi. Q4 will expand assets and liquidity directly from the source-chain wallet.

one of the best risk-adjusted Solana DeFi plays that I'm doing personally: - supply hSOL to Kamino (~8% yield on the SOL and MEV + txn fees!) - borrow USDC (~6% rate) - swap USDC to PYUSD - supply PYUSD to Kamino Sentora (19% APY = 14% PYUSD incentives, 6% KMNO Season 4 rewards) you're getting 13-14% on stables while getting KMNO points and earning yield on your SOL sounds a bit too good to be true, but it is true this is the beauty of capitalism, the stablecoin providers are throwing free money at you to gain market share

1/ The best stable yield on Solana just got a significant boost! Kamino's Season 4 rewards have expanded to PYUSD Earn, with 1.75M weekly $KMNO awarded to depositors — in addition to existing $PYUSD Rewards PYUSD Earn APY now totals ~23%, breakdown below ⤵️ https://t.co/SLg2D4h0Sg

if CZ quote tweet dunks on SBF, Aster goes up at least 40% here

Borrow USDG on Kamino at just 0.27% APY. Loop it into ONyc and earn 20.35% APY. Efficient leverage. Compounded real-world yield. A smarter way to put your stablecoins to work. https://t.co/e5NKPVoTT5

> Kyle raises 1.5B > Says "I will put money into SOL DeFi" > I buy more KMNO > Hits ATM for 4B KMNO up 53% on the week literally the easiest long, probably of all time https://t.co/se503MjFNt

We are about to see a colossal DeFi renaissance on Solana - Best market makers in crypto competing to death on Prop AMMs - Orderflow game getting interesting with Jupiter, Phantom, Dflow, Titan - New Solana DATs injecting billions into DeFi onchain - TPU sending via RPC is getting better by the day - Alpenglow reducing finality to 100-150ms - Teams starting to CU golf to increase onchain velocity - Stablecoin competition driving yield back to DeFi - Tokenized stocks gaining more adoption - Pump gaining more traction - Trading bots like Axiom breaking revenue records - Ptoken making token ops much more efficient - New DEXes and stealth startups coming out soon - App-controlled execution - Price reflexivity via DATs multiplying all of the above - All heading into Breakpoint in the Capital of Capital big quarter coming up
