This is only possible because of the astonishing progress of builders, creators, and users of SOL.

IMO the key for crypto success is...
The biggest changes i made after a few years into crypto...
I completely stopped worrying about the fiat value...
I stopped panic selling when the price dropped....
i stopped using stop limits...
i stopped placing coins for sale...

I began wanting more coins...(after DYOR, FA is what matters most)
If the price dropped ,i would simply buy more...
if it dropped more..id buy even more...

I began valuing my crypto more than my fiat.

Once i knew the good projects, it was just a matter of hodling.
The coins are priced in fiat..fiat is unlimited in supply and growing in supply at an exponential rate...crypto isnt.

All good coins will naturally keep going up...just make sure you got plenty of them  Wink



Like now...
$12.50 SOL
Im buying Solana, its over sold and undervalued ...

TdS ftw!!! https://tds.solanabeach.io/validators
* 1000+ validators total
* 551 to 66.67% in stake
* 219 to 33.34% in stake
no sharding, no committees, one big, fast state machine!
So the min set of nodes that add up to the Nakamoto Coefficient on TdS is bigger then an eth2 shard Smiley
25 Mar 2021·



In the last month alone, over 50 market-ready projects launched on Solana. These included industry-leading DeFi applications, markets for NFTs, and infrastructure to support the next generation of Web 3 companies. Recent initiatives such as the Solana x Serum DeFi Hackathon saw 100+ project submissions from 3,000 builders, just as Raydium, an automated market maker (AMM) and liquidity provider built on the Solana blockchain for the Serum decentralized exchange (DEX), surpassed $160m total value locked, increasing more than 3000% in less than two months.





PRO TIP for anyone wanting to host alot of nodes and make even more huge savings by using ANKR.

ANKR is already more than 60% cheaper than its rivals...
Devs and anyone else...if you want to lower the price by 5x,10x, 100x even 1000x...buy,accumulate alot of ANKR now then use it to pay for your node services which you will be needing for the next decade or longer.  Wink
7months later...almost 100x savings, free nodes for life for those that listened  Kiss



Dont worry if you missed ANKR...

If your fast you can still catch the SOL train  Kiss

Its official..
https://wsvn.com/entertainment/american-airlines-arena-to-officially-be-renamed-ftx-arena/
MIAMI (WSVN) - The American Airlines Arena will now have a new name: FTX Arena.

The County Commission approved a 19-year partnership with FTX to rename the home of the Miami Heat to FTX Arena.

The county approved the proposal, sponsored by Commissioner Keon Hardemon, to invest $90 million in net revenues from the partnership to go towards programs to reduce gun violence and to “expand economic prosperity for Miami-Dade residents.”

“This is a historic investment for Miami-Dade – $90 million over 19 years that we will put to use to tackle some of our most pressing challenges and build a healthier, safer community,” said Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava. “We’re grateful to FTX for their investment in Miami-Dade and proud to bring this partnership home.”

FTX is a cryptocurrency exchange where customers can trade Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.



Hmmm, FTT is cheap just now ,$36.50..... Wink

Traders that use FTX exchange...
Hope you got plenty of FTT ...
Binance coin BNB rank 3 has 154Mill supply and is priced at $268 Mcap $41B
FTX coin FTT rank 30 has 94Mill and is priced at is $36. Mcap $3.4B

No maker fee if you have 25 FTT staked...
No withdraw fees if you have 150 FTT staked...
if you want to take part in FTX IEO's, hodling FTT is useful...
Note: Any user whose 30d trading volumes do not exceed $50,000 or who does not stake 500 FTT cannot participate in FTX IEO's

1/6 Major USDC news today -
@Visa
 has become the first major payments network to support USDC as a native currency and settlement system on its network.  This is massive news, and marks a major turning point in mainstream adoption of crypto.







Guys get as much SOL as possible...
With the VISA news now being reality...
Sol is the only blockchain that will allow microtransactions on VISA USDC due to its ultra low fees.
SOL is also the fastest with the highest throughput.

IMF Silently Creates New Money Layer, Why You Need to Leave the Banks: Willem Middelkoop
26 Mar 2021







Back to Visa USDC...

https://usa.visa.com/visa-everywhere/blog/bdp/2021/03/26/digital-currency-comes-1616782388876.html

After months of anticipation and careful planning, we completed the first successful settlement transaction this month —with Crypto.com sending USDC to Visa’s Ethereum address at Anchorage.
One small step forward for Visa’s settlement platform, one giant step forward for the integration of digital and traditional fiat currencies.
After further testing and additional conversations with clients, partners and members of the regulatory community, we hope to launch this capability for other partners in the year ahead.





So what i gather is Anchorage did a test send of USDC on ETH to a VISA ETH address...
Now they will be testing and launching on the others later this year.
Probably late Q3 for SOL going live.

Im 100% confident VISA will not use ETH due to its technical limitations and high costs
Ethereum blocks are already 99.9% full...not much use for VISA unless they pay mega fees for every tiny USDC tx.

SOL is the one they will use most...this is why Circle built around SOL.

People use VISA credit/debit cards for small daily transactions...
Only SOL lets you spend $10 to 1cent USDC , the amount doesn't matter its almost free and the receiver will always get paid instantly.



Q-
> The speed is the main attraction, able to process 50,000 TPS - yet it currently uses 1,000 TPS which if it becomes as popular as it should, will eventually hit slow issues. The comparison often comes with ETH saying that they can only do 15 TPS, but yet it says that even if let's say ETH could process 50,000 TPS it would still run less than 1,000 TPS as it's more efficient?! Very confused about this speed thing and how it is measured.

Think of it as at the 3nm claim from TSMC. It doesn't mean that the every gate on the chip is 3nm, its that the smallest feature is 3nm, and that 3nm is 2x better then 6nm. Modern day node builds our #mb-hardware-tunning discord channel have demonstrated 200k tps for the same benchmark. That doesn't mean that we can run 200k serum orders, but it does mean it's 4x better then the 50k builds, and that's just with 1 year of hardware improvements.
 Shocked


This stuff matters because nasdaq handles 500ktps load across their markets. This is the only way to really handle impermanent loss at scale for large volumes. Our goal is to keep optimizing until a nasdaq level central limit order book can run on a decentralized network. What's awesome is that every improvement we add to the runtime also increases capacity for votes, which means more validators can participate in consensus, txs are cheaper for everyone, more censorship resistance!







SOL $20...yea it is now  Kiss

Tried it and works great! Used a PHP bank account connected to my paypal to deposit USD. Paypal handled the conversion automatically and the deposit was almost instant. Paypal fees high a bit but ima pay it for convenience.



Ive been looking into Sam Bankman-Fried, CEO of crypto derivatives exchange FTX.
Im impressed with SBF, he is a very clever guy and then today i see this,

https://decrypt.co/60185/ftx-ceo-sam-bankman-fried-ranked-as-second-biggest-blockchain-billionaire

China’s Hurun Research Institute has named Sam Bankman-Fried, CEO of crypto derivatives exchange FTX, the second-richest “blockchain billionaire”—just below Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and, somewhat surprisingly, above Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao.


Well done SBF  Kiss





^ with backing like this SOL is going to the top  Grin
<---buying more SOL



https://cointelegraph.com/magazine/2021/02/24/sam-bankman-fried-the-crypto-whale-who-wants-to-give-billions-away
 As the founder of quant trading firm Alameda Research, exchange FTX and DeFi protocol Serum, the curly haired 28-year-old has amassed a $10 billion fortune in just three years in the industry.

He was the second largest donor to President Joe Biden’s campaign, after former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, tipping in $5.2 million.


“With FTX as a retail facing business the more customers the better. You can build the best  product in the world but if no one knows about it it’s not worth anything,” he says.
“One of the hardest and most interesting pieces has been figuring out how to get users, and increasing awareness was a big part of that.”

Im on it  Wink



He’s also using his wealth and influence to try and overcome what he sees as the biggest blocker preventing the wide scale adoption of DeFi. He believes that Ethereum, including Eth2 can’t scale enough to allow crypto and DeFi to replace the existing financial system. DeFi can currently handle about 10 transactions per second, with second layer solutions enabling a few thousand TPS.

“This is an absolute hard, immoveable barrier, in terms of growth,” he says. “DeFi just literally cannot grow as an ecosystem until that is addressed. And so no long-term plan that doesn’t address it is viable. […] That is just fatal.” Even Eth2’s goal of 100,000 TPS isn’t enough for what SBF has in mind.

“If your goal is to scale to 100 million or a billion users, […] if you want to have the upside of an application that might grow to the scale of the largest applications in the world, it needs to be able to scale up to about a million transactions a second. And so you can just sort of cross off the list permanently with no recourse and not even needing to consider any other factor, any scaling solution that doesn’t get there, if that’s your goal.”

That’s what led him to become one of the most vocal proponents for Solana, a blockchain that can currently process 65,000 TPS and whose team claim it can eventually scale up to astonishing levels: 710,000 TPS on a 1 gigabit link or 28.4 million TPS on a 40 gigabit link.

He founded the Serum DEX on Solana and launched the SRM cryptocurrency in August 2020. Bankman-Fried say you can see Solana’s benefits in Serum’s on chain order book matching engine and fees of “100th of a penny to send an order and trades happen in seconds.”

Totally see why he says this and agree with SBF on SOLs tech and have been very vocal for Solana.
 Cool

PayPal has been tight-lipped about just which type of blockchain technology it plans to use to build this infrastructure.
Fernandez da Ponte did say that any system it adopts will have to be capable of “high throughput”
in the form of thousands of transactions per second, and noted that the company has looked at blockchains like
Ethereum, Stellar, Algorand and Solana—but emphasized that it is not endorsing any of them for now.



Interesting....with the recent Blockfolio app accepting Paypal payments

Blockfolio @blockfolio · Nov 23, 2020 CEO of PayPal, "We're going to allow cryptocurrencies to be a funding source for any transaction happening on all 28 million of our merchants."

https://blog.blockfolio.com/solana-is-the-newest-blockfolio-value-ads-partner-24a84dc0c772
“Solana is the closest thing to the ‘world computer’ blockchain developers conceptualized in the early days of crypto. While many developers have proposed sharding solutions for scaling existing layer 1 solutions, all of those solutions introduce a tremendous amount of complexity and create new user experience problems. Solana has done it differently — and is one of the most compelling layer 1 platforms we’ve evaluated to date. We’re very proud to lead this round, and we encourage developers everywhere to take a serious look at Solana.”

SecretSwap is LIVE on Mainnet!
Secret DeFi is here. Now you can trade secret tokens with front-running resistance, improved privacy protections, and low cost. Start using SecretSwap now!

Secret tokens are fungible tokens native to Secret Network that are private by default,
they can represent any native or off-chain asset including Ethereum assets, thanks to our Secret Ethereum Bridge
On Secret Network, all users benefit from privacy network effects - the more usage there is of Secret Apps, the more security users gain.

SecretSwap allows users to trade any secret token for any other. It works like Uniswap or SushiSwap, but with lower costs and higher user security.

https://scrt.network/blog/secretswap-is-live-on-mainnet

 the advantage of SecretSwap lies in secret contracts and the SNIP-20 token standard.

Secret contracts allow encrypted data to be used without revealing it on a public blockchain, or even to nodes themselves.

“We have $50 million in Ethereum assets already locked as secret tokens on our network,”

Blockfolio  which will be powered by FTX's trading systems
 https://cryptobriefing.com/ftx-bets-solana-ethereum-decentralized-exchange/

FTX Bets on Solana, Not Ethereum, for Its New Decentralized Exchange
Jul. 27, 2020
Solana aims to capture market share in DeFi as Ethereum's high transaction fees hinder new users.

Blockfolio will put the firm up against a long list of players that offer crypto trading, such as Coinbase and Robinhood.
Blockfolio also has the benefit of having an established, loyal user base of more than 6 million.

In some instances, the increase in retail activity has caused some platforms to buckle under the pressure. On Wednesday, Robinhood's crypto platform reported issues, as previously reported by The Block. Earlier this month,
 Coinbase said it would overhaul its own infrastructure after an outage that affected its retail userbase. <-- CB upgrading to SOL!

Blockfolio says that offering a "clean user experience" will be a focus of the new function.
FTX — which will offer some of its products through the Blockfolio app — has been working to capitalize on that fervor through the listings of various tokenized stocks as well as pre-IPO futures contracts in firms like Coinbase and Airbnb. 
Indeed, the firm said it would offer to its international Blockfolio users trading in three stocks that Robinhood has paused buys on: GameStop, AMC, and Nokia.

This is a daily thing in crypto aswell...exchanges sell our coins and suppress the coins we hodl....
Get your coins off exchanges asap..especially if the coins are stakable because the exchanges are also earning your stake while shorting the price of your investments.

With Banks now allowed to print stablecoins...they will replace the role of Tether...
The entire crypto market is going into the 10 Trillion $ range.

I think USDC will become the #1 coin because they will print Trillions of them...
Also Banks will be hosting nodes and staking on the B3 coins..

The crypto platforms that help USDC become the most functional will benefit the most.



Another huge reason the Blockchain 3.0 coins are going to be game changing...

Worldwide Microtransaction payments.

liquidity is the key to Bitcoin and Ethereums high mcaps.
Big money needs to be able to move around easily and for that good liquidity is required.

With USDT printing most of the stablecoin volume last year they added most of the USDT to BTC & ETH making it easier for big players to move around.

Now with the new OCC ruling that Banks can host nodes and issue USDC, they will add mega liquidity to the markets.
They will provide most of the liquidity to the Blockchain nodes that they are using such as ALGO & SOL.
ALGO and SOL will have so much liquidity that will make it easier for the big money to get in and out.
High liquidity = high mcap
 
USDC printing will outstrip USDT this year and more as the years pass.



Hope you guys are stocking up as much as you can.

London, UK, Nov 5, 2020-- Mentat Innovations, a leading artificial intelligence and blockchain solutions provider to global enterprises, today announced that it will develop an open source SAP connector and Enablement API to the Algorand blockchain.
Algorand provides a stable and fast blockchain that is purpose built for enterprise type applications that Mentat’s clients are planning to deploy on established software platforms like SAP.

Mentat has chosen Algorand as their preferred blockchain platform due to the global scale, speed and security enabled by the Algorand protocol and by the flexibility provided by Algorand Smart Contract (ASC1) and Algorand Standard Asset functionality. The combination of scale and flexibility is critical in supporting Enterprise adoption across a very wide range of use cases.

Whats even more interesting is that USDC is now live on ALGO & SOL, both are magnitudes faster and cheaper for USDC than the ETH chain.

 Voyager will develop USDC payment rails on the Algorand protocol, such that consumers will have the ability to buy, hold, trade, and self-custody their USDC, ALGO, and Alogrand Standard Assets on Voyager.
The Algorand Protocol will make USDC transactions more efficient and less costly for consumers, as well as bring interest-bearing benefits to customers. Going forward, this development will facilitate future ASA tokens to be bought, sold, or transferred through the Voyager platform.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/haileylennon/2021/01/04/occ-regulator-implements-groundbreaking-cryptocurrency-guidance-for-banks-and-the-future-of-payments

Today the OCC published Interpretive Letter 1174, which explains banks may use new technologies, including independent node verification networks (INVNs) and stablecoins, to perform bank-permissible functions, such as payment activities. Said simply, a bank may use stablecoins (cryptocurrencies designed to minimize the price volatility) to facilitate payment transactions for customers.

In doing so, a bank may issue stablecoins, exchange stablecoins for fiat currency, as well as validate, store, and record payments transactions by serving as a node on a blockchain (INVN)

Maps.me is a mapping application that users can access offline. It functions almost similarly with Google Maps, only that Maps.me can work without internet access. Across the world, the platform has recorded over 140 million users utilizing it for their travel needs, as well as an aid for directions.

Maps 2.0 introduces new financial products and services on the platform. Through this upgrade, users can finally store assets, perform currency exchange, transfer money, and make payments digitally. One of its biggest additions includes the integration of DeFi on Maps 2.0.

Maps is a travel and navigation application that allows users to access maps both online and offline. Lately, Maps has introduced new digital finance features built on the Solana blockchain. With a remarkable user base actively using the platform, it can become a springboard for greater DeFi adoption.



https://www.algorand.com/resources/blog/usoccs-recent-breakthrough-announcement

This week the largest regulating body of banks in the US, The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC, @USOCC), issued forward looking interpretive guidance that clearly states US Banks may participate in node technology such as Algorand's, as well as use the technology’s related stablecoins, to create the necessary settlement infrastructure of the future—one that is secure, fast, and final.

This is an important step in opening the door for advances in global payments by recognizing that the current outdated legacy system should evolve to a network that is more efficient, modern, trustworthy and readily available. We believe this is a significant early indicator in how legacy infrastructures will evolve and eventually lead to our economies being powered by blockchain technology designed to facilitate the trusted exchange of economic value. In particular, as banks participate in blockchain-enabled ecosystems, users will be able to settle payments faster, at scale, with lower fees, and with greater accountability and transparency. Banks will be able to streamline financial transactions and offer consumers and businesses the instant transaction finality and compliance needed to advance and build inclusion in economies around the world.  

Many of these transactions will be enabled by stablecoins, a form of programmable digital money. As an example, Algorand is one of the first blockchains with a stablecoin implementation powered by Circle’s USDC. Circle's platform has supported over 100 million transactions, worth tens of billions of dollars, with nearly 10 million retail customers, and over a thousand businesses. Circle has also stored and secured more than $5 billion in digital currency assets. In addition to USDC, Algorand has a wide range of supported stablecoins that includes licensed e-money in Euros, British pounds, and Icelandic krona (all from Monerium), Stablecorp’s QCAD (first fully-compliant Canadian-dollar stablecoin), USDT from Tether (the most widely traded stablecoin), Meld Gold (a gold-backed stablecoin), and more.


Algorand was designed specifically for this opportunity with Layer-1 core primitives that include the global scale, speed, security, finality, and advanced tools (such as Smart Contracts) required for a modern financial system. These capabilities allow developers to program sophisticated payment applications that can support billions of users in a truly secure and scalable manner.

QCAD is the first fully-compliant, mass market CAD stablecoin and is currently supported by over 22 different ecosystem partners, including exchanges, custodians, payment providers, DEXs and more. Having originally launched QCAD on Ethereum, Stablecorp’s new implementation on Algorand opens up the possibility for more mainstream use cases that require higher-throughout and faster transaction speeds.


Algorand is uniquely designed to enable global scale, speed and security, which makes it an optimal platform for a high volume stablecoin. The Algorand blockchain’s Permissionless, Pure Proof of Stake algorithm not only facilitates the scale needed for a high transaction volume stablecoin but also delivers the guaranteed transaction finality that builds a high level of confidence for all parties involved in those transactions.

Monerium is bringing the Euro to the Algorand blockchain.

https://monerium.com/blog/2020/euros-on-algorand/
So why is this important?

Algorand comprehensive smart contract capabilities enable the creation of DeFi solutions and dApps that can scale to billions of users, tens of millions of daily transactions, with negligible transaction fees. Developers can find all the resources they need to turn their ideas into full-scale applications on the Algorand Developer Portal.

What does Monerium offer?

Businesses and consumers need a proven form of authorized money, not a stablecoin that looks like money. Monerium EMI is an electronic money institution, a European regulated entity that is licensed to operate in the European Economic Area and the UK, altogether 31 countries with $20T GDP. We create an unique bank account number for your Algorand blockchain address and automatically issue the e-money ASA to your wallet. You can then send and receive money directly between your wallet and bank accounts.

A number of factors will be considered during the research effort.
 Narula noted that a retail-focused CBDC would need low latency and high throughput, meaning it would need to be able to process a large number of transactions per second, while remaining secure.
Part of this mission means leveraging existing cryptographic and distributed ledger systems “that have been vetted in the real world,” she said.

“We don’t want to take some brand-new consensus algorithm or cryptographic protocol and use it for a country’s national currency,” she said.




To drop UBI in CBDC form globally, your will need a high throughput, low cost with 1second finality Blockchain.


Algorand.

Central Bank Digital Currencies
The experience with pandemic emergency payments has brought forward an idea that was already gaining increased attention at central banks around the world, that is, central bank digital currency (CBDC).
Legislation has proposed that each American have an account at the Fed in which digital dollars could be deposited, as liabilities of the Federal Reserve Banks, which could be used for emergency payments.
Other proposals would create a new payments instrument, digital cash, which would be just like the physical currency issued by central banks today, but in a digital form and, potentially, without the anonymity of physical currency.
Depending on how these currencies are designed, central banks could support them without the need for commercial bank involvement via direct issuance into the end-users’ digital wallets combined with central-bank-facilitated transfer and redemption services.
 

The Federal Reserve has been researching issues raised by central bank digital currency for some time.
The Board of Governors has a technology lab that has been building and testing a range of distributed ledger platforms to understand their potential benefits and tradeoffs.
Staff members from several Reserve Banks, including Cleveland Fed software developers, are contributing to this effort.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Boston is also engaged in a multiyear effort, working with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, to experiment with technologies that could be used for a central bank digital currency.

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has established an innovation center, in partnership with the Bank for International Settlements, to identify and develop in-depth insights into critical trends and financial technology of relevance to central banks.

CBDCs have started to gain momentum as of late and
@Algorand is playing a key role.


The OG's of crypto know whats happening with Algorand.
Blockchain.com exchange only has a handful of coins to trade.
it was over 3 years since Blockchain,com listed a new coin until recently...they added ALGO...
They know ALGO is working with the big players and how big ALGO will become.

Pro Tip...Load up on ALGO...Mega big things are coming.


https://news.bitcoin.com/us-federal-reserve-reveals-building-a-digital-dollar-codebase-with-mit/

In addition to the Fed investigating a CBDC, Congress has proposed a number of bills discussing the invocation of a digital dollar this year. All of which seem to leverage Covid-19 as an important reminder that the country needs a reliable payment system. A Digital Dollar Foundation was also created in the U.S. this year.

Despite Powell’s attempts to be more secretive, Brainard told the webcast attendees that the central bank’s Boston branch has had a “multiyear” relationship with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The Boston technology school is well known for fostering digital currency research and development, including funding Bitcoin developers.

 Think it was just by “chance” #Algorand got mentioned by
RepTomEmmer in an official hearing. ALGO was not in the top 100 coin at the time.
ZERO chance that list was random.

ALGO is working with the Fed
ALGO is working with Circle
ALGO is working with Coinbase
ALGO is working with USDC & USDT


When this news becomes reality that Fedcoin is being built on Algorand,
ALGO will 10x within a week and probably over 100x a few months later.
Algo right now is under 30cents, its a bargain...load up while its cheap and the market is quiet.


Also, the speed ALGO can be sent at is amazing, its instant!
 try sending ALGO to any wallet including exchanges and you will see the fastest crypto TX ever.

WOW,  Grin Grin Grin

Many are hyped with the news earlier from Powell and so they should be.

What many dont know is that Algorand is the one to watch out for as they are the ones working with the Fed on a CBDC...
Powell clearly said it today......
“One set of experiments is being carried out at the board of governors here in Washington, D.C.,” Powell said. “Complementary efforts are also now underway, for example through the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, which, in collaboration with researchers at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), is developing a hypothetical central bank digital currency.”

Right now this must be the best crypto bargain i can think of.
Ignore what BTC is doing to the markets and get as much AVAX as you can.
This is the coin that gives people that chance that they missed 10 years ago with BTC and 5 years ago with ETH...to get in low and hodl.

AVAX is the best tech crypto has to offer and its now live.


Fill those bags up and DCA if it drops. These cheap prices wont last long 100% guaranteed Wink
