During my second week at Orca in January 2024, I wrote an internal memo about how memecoins were about to explode, but that they would be a stepping stone to more meaningful finance taking place on Solana
I have no idea if these metrics will sustain in the short term, but the long term vision is clearer than ever
Narrative violation...
Tokenized assets just flipped memes in Solana spot volume.
On June 23, tokenized assets were 17% of @solana spot volume vs. memes at 12%

.@sunrise has quietly become one of the most important teams bringing new assets to Solana. Not just getting them onchain, but helping build real markets around them
A lot of the work happens behind the scenes, but the results speak for themselves. It’s been great to watch that work translate into better assets, deeper liquidity, and more opportunities for Solana users
More.
Liquidity on Solana, for the world's largest IPO, is the deepest on Orca.
Orca is proud to be the principal standard for deep liquidity, fueling the future of finance, today.

1/3 As we await the SEC’s Innovation Exemption, credit is due to Chairman @SECPaulSAtkins and Commissioner @HesterPeirce for creating an environment where U.S. builders can engage constructively with regulators and operate onshore with greater confidence.
For nearly a year, @orca_so has engaged with the SEC’s Crypto Task Force and Trading & Markets on how securities transactions through AMM infrastructure could fit within U.S. federal securities laws.
In every interaction, the staff asked hard questions, engaged in good faith, and showed a genuine desire to understand how Orca’s AMM infrastructure works. The change in tone under Chairman Atkins’ leadership has been remarkable.

I’m somehow doing all of the above
Biggest divergence of portfolio outlook I’ve seen across all my friends & circles
- some are selling everything for stables & calling the end of the cycle
- some are buying dips for high revenue accrual tokens
- some are going all in on flavour of the week (privacy) & leverage trading 5x
- some are leaving crypto for stocks & indices
- some are only bidding BTC & becoming bitcoin maxis
