Solana NFT Degen since 2021 – honest opinions on wallets, blockchains and projects.

Welcome to the Jungle 🌴 The Solana NFT culture is still alive, still weird, and I love it. Even my gecko comes back from his eternal journey for a group photo. What’s your favorite Solana NFT collection of all time? 👇 Mine: @DegenApeAcademy @DeGodsNFT @gambullscasino @SmythsNFT @Primatesnft @GalacticGeckoSG

The last mile was always the real bottleneck. Instant settlement means nothing if the money still sits 3 days at the bank. Unsexy stuff like this is what actually wins.
Stablecoins can cross the world in seconds. Then they have to land somewhere the recipient can spend them. We're working with @ThunesPayments to connect our stablecoin infrastructure to local bank accounts and mobile wallets worldwide.

~400k wallets trading @HyperliquidX perps through apps like @phantom are down ~$280M. Over half of recent losses went to fees. Maybe it's time to go back to NFTs. No liquidations, no funding fees, and you actually own something. Leverage or NFTs, what's your play?

A rip fee for a filmed physical opening actually makes sense. That's randomness you can rewatch, way more trust than a black-box reveal. Solana was the right call.
Why does opening a digital Mudwater pack have a fee? @0xQuit explained that the digital rip is paired with a physical pack opening in a warehouse. It’s filmed, recorded onchain, and the cards’ metadata is assigned then. The rip fee largely covers that physical handling work. There are blockchain costs too. One important detail: the official site still marks “Convert a card” as “Coming soon.” The backing exists, but that conversion feature isn’t listed as live yet. mudwater.bayc.com/#story-phy…

On this day in 2021, Bored Ape #8585 sold for 696.969 ETH (~$2.7M) 🤯 Trippy fur + King's Crown. The priciest ape ever at the time. Today the @BoredApeYC floor is ~5.6 ETH, 96% below its peak. The culture survived, the price didn't. Would you pay 7 figures for a PFP again?

I needed that too. So that I know exactly how much I’m in the red every day 🫣😄
hacked the samsung in my bedroom, removed the ads and put one of my wallets notifications as the idle screen. built using @aurus mcp. internal testing only atm, will open it to public soon. claude used the aurus mcp and built it in an hour. you don't need anyone's permission in 2026.

France has voted to tax crypto-to-stablecoin swaps at 31.4% from 2027, with 38 to 37 votes 🇫🇷 Only 100 out of 577 MPs were present. Converting profits into USDC will be taxed, but copying a meme crypto won’t. That’s backwards. The Senate still has to decide. A big test for @circle in Europe. Why is the government in Europe getting greedier?
🇫🇷 REGULATION: French MPs voted 38 to 37 to tax crypto-to-stablecoin swaps at 31.4% from 2027, with only 100 of 577 lawmakers bothering to show up.

My biggest wins this cycle? Almost all on $OTC from @otc_labs 📈 And trading through @aurus saved me a ton in fees along the way. $OTC + Aurus is honestly my favorite combo right now. Curious how much you'd have saved? Check here 👇 aur.us/fees

On this day in 2021, @JungleCatsIO crashed Raydium 🦁 5,585 3D lions, 2 SOL, a 5-min lottery on @Raydium DropZone. Sold out the same day. Peak 2021 Solana energy. Most of those roadmaps didn't survive the bear, but I miss mint days like this. Did you win that lottery? #Solana
To celebrate our launch with @RaydiumProtocol dropzone we’ll be giving away this 1/1 Raydium Cat! To win this Cat: 1. Retweet and tag 2 friends 2. Follow @JungleCatsIO and @RaydiumProtocol 3. Join Jungle Cats discord: discord.gg/junglecats

Apes are ripping packs on Solana 🦍 @yugalabs launched Mudwater: physical BAYC trading cards with onchain twins, ~140k packs for Apes & Mutants, 2.5% of every trade buys $APE . Yuga building this on Solana, not ApeChain, says a lot. Big W for SOL NFTs. Would you rip a pack?
Mudwater is an old game played deep in the Everglades. Instead of dice in alleys, we play Mudwater on the docks. The game is simple, but the skill ceiling is high. And we play for keeps. We've just airdropped this 6551 Totem, paired to all BAYC & MAYC, enabling pack claims.

Anyone involved in NFTs should know this man. He does so much for the NFT community.
If you are new to the NFT space, let me introduce you to @AdamWeitsman. He has spent $15M to $20M+ of his own cash accumulating 28,000+ NFTs. Number of NFTs sold since day one: 0. Look at how this man moves when everyone else is panic selling: > 2022: Enters NFTs. Buys a Bored Ape in an orange prison jumpsuit because it looks like his old mugshot. > Feb 2023: Pays 1,000 ETH ($1.6M) to Fortnite pro Mongraal for the 1/1 Dookey Dash Golden Key. > Aug 2025: Buys 5,000+ Otherside NFTs OTC directly from Yuga Labs with a multi-year lockup. > Dec 2025: Sweeps 227 Meebits in a single OTC deal. He now holds 1,037 Meebits (5.18% of the entire supply). > July 2026: Joins the Yuga Labs Board of Directors. Takes a $0 salary. > Oct 2026: Abstract chain shuts down. Panic hits Pudgy Penguins. He sweeps 117 Pudgies in one weekend, then quietly buys 14 more this week (now holding 181 Pudgies worth $1.03M+). At today's floor prices, his 28,000+ NFTs are worth around $4.5M to $5M ($3.33M in his main 6,063-NFT gallery alone). He is down $10M to $15M on paper and still hits market-buy every time a project bleeds. I don't think there is another whale in crypto who would sit through a $12M drawdown on JPEGs and still wire fresh cash to support the floor. Nothing but respect for the man.

Persona Journey raised ~1.8k ETH at mint in 2024. Now Unagi is in court-ordered liquidation and the IP, 957 treasury NFTs and even the X + Discord communities of @Persona_Journey are for sale. Holders are literally on the asset list. If you held one, would you bid or walk?

Tokenized stocks on Solana: $0.29B quarterly volume a year ago, $7.12B in Q3. Plus a record 14.2B transactions and $197B spot DEX volume, per @solana and @blockworksres . Honestly, this is the adoption story people miss while chasing memecoins. Bullish or still too early?

PumpFun went from memecoin casino to perps venue in a year. Smart to plug into Hyperliquid instead of building it. Question is whether retail survives the leverage.
JUST IN: PumpFun launches crypto perpetual futures trading powered by Hyperliquid $HYPE.

Spot BTC & ETH just went live for ~40M clients at @CharlesSchwab (~$13T in assets). Crypto right next to stocks. SOL reportedly by year-end. 👀 Honest take: this on-ramp matters more than another ETF headline. Would you buy your first $SOL through your broker? 👇
Schwab Crypto™ accounts are now available to all eligible retail clients. Clients can directly buy and sell popular cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, alongside their brokerage account investments. Learn more: brnw.ch/21x6sG7

SpaceX: reusable rockets, Starlink worldwide, and now data centers in orbit with @nvidia . 🚀 Germany under Merz: paying Nvidia hundreds of millions in tax money to maybe catch up (per Handelsblatt). One builds the future. One subsidizes it. Who would you bet on? 👇
Old friends are the best friends. Jensen rocks. The Star Mind computer being co-engineered by SpaceX and Nvidia is far better than almost anyone expects and will reach volume production next year. Working with the incredibly talented Nvidia engineering team is pure joy!

It’s amazing how long @elonmusk has been working on this technology. What a genius!
The new Roadster will actually do something like this

This is exactly me watching the new Roadster reveal for the first time. 😂 No notes. Same face, same words, same emotional damage. My wallet already knows what's coming. 🚀
I hate to admit it, but this was my literal reaction. (NSFW: Language)

The new Tesla Roadster is here and it looks like an SR-71 had a baby with an F-35. 🚀 Near-F1 downforce in Track Mode, wings powered by Optimus actuators. "The last best driver's car" says @Tesla.
Our design language has evolved since the last reveal: from S3XY to Cybertruck, Cybercab & Optimus Roadster is inspired by the SR-71 & F-35

Jupiter just shipped YOLO: up to 1000x leverage on SOL, BTC & ETH from ~$10. 🎰 At 1000x a 0.1% move liquidates you. And it's unaudited. Not alpha. Just a casino with better UX. 🫣😉 @JupiterExchange
