My journey into Solana started because I needed it. Growing up with limited access to traditional financial infrastructure meant that receiving and moving money internationally wasn’t always simple. When I started getting paid for work online, I had to find another way. That path eventually brought me to Solana, and I’ve stayed close to this ecosystem ever since. Over the years I’ve contributed through communities, education and content in both Spanish and English. A lot of that journey has been around NFTs, builders, Solana communities and, more recently, MetaDAO and Futarchy. Now payments feel like another natural part of that path and; I’m proud to start contributing to @crediblefin I’ve been following Credible closely for a while, especially as they brought solana:CREDBHvVqREBCAxMihzr8D1nepHMr2gmQoZWpmgGmeta to MetaDAO as the ownership coin behind the company. That made me spend much more time understanding what they’re actually building: pay-ins, pay-outs, stablecoin settlement, global collection accounts, local rails and liquidity working together as one payment stack for internet-native businesses. This is also where I want to spend more of my time. Stablecoins, remittances, prediction markets, liquidity and global payments are becoming some of the areas I find most interesting on Solana. There’s a lot for me to learn, and even more work to do from the trenches. I want to understand this business deeply and contribute wherever my voice, communities and experience can actually be useful. The vision that sticks with me is making T+0 settlement normal. Businesses getting paid without waiting days for money to settle. Money moving globally with less friction. Stablecoins becoming infrastructure that works quietly underneath the experience. Carrying the Credible badge means a lot to me. Earning it through the work means more. Still contributing to Solana, now from another part of the stack.

Almost 40% of solana’s tokenized stock float is deployed in defi 38.6%, the highest rate among the chains shown This is what makes me bullish on solana: bringing assets onchain and giving people a reason to use them

Stronger together ⛏️

who’s playing with the console this saturday night? solana:CREDBHvVqREBCAxMihzr8D1nepHMr2gmQoZWpmgGmeta

The best token on Solana added $9k in liquidity in one day using only 10% of its total buy backs. Fark me dead.

Keep mining

they told me the solana:oreoU2P8bN6jkk3jbaiVxYnG1dCXcYxwhwyK9jSybcp community was strong let’s make it stronger, one block at a time keep mining

a friend told me -> people who move have motion -> people who have motion find luck on the way keep moving

gm, Saturday and Solana builders are already at it this coffee’s for the ones who never stop

▪️ can’t change the trades i made ▪️ can still choose what i build next ▫️ see you on solana

¿sabes lo que se viene mañana? MetaÑOL vuelve en vivo y hay mucho de qué hablar sobre MetaDAO nos vemos ahí

this wheel doesn’t stop spinning started mining solana:oreoU2P8bN6jkk3jbaiVxYnG1dCXcYxwhwyK9jSybcp less than a week ago and already earned 2 beautiful coins the alpha? keep mining

astra, give me the mega bull case for metadao The most mega-bull case is that MetaDAO becomes the default way to finance, own, and govern an internet business. In that world, a $50–100 billion platform valuation becomes conceivable over 10–20 years, provided META captures the economics. That is an extreme success scenario. Here is the strongest chain of reasoning I can construct. MetaDAO could make a much larger universe of businesses investable. The crucial invention is a credible commitment: founders raise capital into a structure where markets oversee the treasury, key intellectual property, and issuance of new tokens. MetaDAO’s documentation describes this arrangement, while explicitly distinguishing it from conventional shareholder rights. If that arrangement proves durable, investors can become comfortable funding people they have never met, in businesses they can monitor remotely, with a credible mechanism for challenging destructive decisions. That could reduce the cost of capital, expand the population of fundable founders, and make smaller investments economical. The historical analogy is the emergence of a new corporate form: a standard package that allows strangers to pool money and pursue productive opportunities together. A successful change in how people organize capital can create an enormous market around itself. The fundraising process could also make the underlying companies more successful. A founder receives money alongside people with an economic reason to become customers, recruit users, introduce partners, and help the business. There are early hints of this. MetaDAO reports that Avici grew from roughly 1,000 to 10,000 weekly active users after its raise, with investors becoming users and referring others. Rip Cars raised $250,000 from approximately 1,000 people and assembled a prelaunch waitlist exceeding 850. These are company-reported examples, rather than proof that the ownership structure caused the growth. The bullish implication is powerful: MetaDAO could become somewhere excellent founders go because raising there improves their chances of winning. Once founders believe that, the quality of companies seeking to launch improves. Better companies attract better investors. Those investors bring more useful connections and customers. The next founder receives a more valuable package. That is how a fundraising venue could develop into a company-building network. Investor protection could become an expected standard. Imagine two otherwise comparable fundraising opportunities. One gives investors a credible mechanism for challenging misuse of capital and redirecting remaining resources. Investors should eventually attach economic value to that protection. If this produces better financing terms, founders have a financial incentive to adopt the structure. Adoption would then spread through ordinary self-interest. There is already an institutional bridge: Colosseum’s STAMP, developed with Orrick, provides a route from private investment into a MetaDAO ICO and supports migration from existing investment arrangements. The maximal outcome is that funds, accelerators, advisers, and founders begin designing businesses around this structure from inception. An especially interesting possibility: trust could accumulate even when individual startups fail, provided the system handles failure well and returns remaining capital. Investors who experience an orderly wind-down may remain willing to back the next founder. One extraordinary company could change the entire platform’s trajectory. Imagine a business raises on MetaDAO at a modest valuation, develops a widely used product, and grows into a company worth $10 billion or more—with substantial, durable gains reaching its early public investors. That would simultaneously demonstrate: * Excellent founders can build through this structure. * Ordinary investors can participate meaningfully in the growth. * The token remains economically connected to a successful business. * The governance arrangement can survive increasing stakes. The effects could extend far beyond that company. Its investors gain wealth to reinvest. Employees and community members become founders. Other entrepreneurs copy its financing path. Professional investors devote resources to finding the next winner. A breakout success could finance, recruit, and advertise the next generation of the ecosystem. Crucially, existing launch cohorts could keep growing while new cohorts arrive. MetaDAO would benefit from both the number of companies and the increasing scale of successful companies already using it. MetaDAO could earn recurring economics throughout those companies’ lives. Its existing revenue sources include Futarchy AMM trading fees and fees earned through Meteora liquidity positions. That establishes a mechanism for monetizing activity after the initial raise. The maximal business develops around a growing population of valuable companies that continually need trading, financing, treasury management, governance, and corporate transactions. Additional services—data, investor tools, financing infrastructure—could eventually expand monetization. Those are future possibilities, not revenue streams I would assume exist today. The strongest moat would come from the accumulated combination of investor distribution, founder reputation, liquidity, integrations, and demonstrated reliability under difficult decisions. Each new company would find an increasingly useful ecosystem already waiting. For META, the essential requirement is that this activity continues to generate economic value inside MetaDAO. AI could expand both the supply of companies and the capacity to oversee them. If AI makes small teams dramatically more productive, many more people could build businesses worth financing. Those founders would still need customers, capital, credibility, and a workable organizational structure. MetaDAO could supply that package. Meanwhile, AI could reduce the cost of reading updates, inspecting proposals, comparing valuations, and directing human attention toward consequential decisions. That would make informed oversight more economical across a much larger number of companies. The particularly ambitious possibility is a professional ecosystem of researchers, industry specialists, and investors who earn money by improving corporate decisions through trading. If that ecosystem consistently helps companies deploy capital better, the structure could gain a productivity advantage alongside its fundraising advantages. This assumes that information quality, incentives, and available trading capital support effective oversight. Here is what the enormous valuation would actually require. Consider this illustrative model for a mature platform: * Annual trading volume captured by MetaDAO equals 5× the aggregate value of its issuers, excluding META itself. * MetaDAO retains an effective 0.10% of that volume, after liquidity-provider shares and rebates. * 50% of revenue becomes free cash flow after operating costs, incentives, taxes, and reinvestment. * Investors value that cash flow at 30–40×, assuming continued growth. Aggregate issuer valueAnnual captured volumeAnnual revenueAnnual free cash flowImplied platform value $100B$500B$500M$250M$7.5–10B $500B$2.5T$2.5B$1.25B$37.5–50B $1T$5T$5B$2.5B$75–100B These are aggressive assumptions about future scale, fee retention, margins, and valuation. The final row requires approximately $13.7 billion in daily captured trading volume. For perspective, MetaDAO’s August 12 founder letter reported 25 companies and more than $45 million raised. There is an immense distance between the early platform and this outcome. Translating platform value into returns per META also requires durable token value capture and accounting for future issuance: META has no hard supply cap, and governance can approve new tokens. What makes the extreme upside intellectually interesting is that MetaDAO could help create the companies, investor relationships, and financial activity that eventually make it valuable. The decisive evidence would be exceptional businesses choosing the structure, succeeding within it, and leaving behind a stronger ecosystem for the next founder.

A shipment from Shenzhen to Los Angeles takes about 25 days by sea. The payment for that shipment can take longer than the ship. That mismatch sits at the center of one of the largest trade relationships in the world and almost nobody is building for it properly.🧵
