"If you post five times about the same topic, you're reaching the same audience five times." "If you get a partner to tweet for you, you're reaching five different audiences with those partners." - @dmoutouss

How to get on @solana's radar "In an ideal world, we see it organically." "Everyone's favorite large group chats I keep an eye on and try to pull stuff out as much as I can." - @lagunacarta

“We like to think about Solana main as really, the heartbeat of the ecosystem.” “We’re always looking for big announcements and big milestones.” “The last category that we really love is Solana exceptionalism.” “Or we can find a really great graph that goes up and to the right.” - @lagunacarta, ecosystem marketing lead @solana

Vukan founded @BlockformerLLC and runs @JurassicFi, which raised $660,000 for the first tokenized dinosaur on Solana. On Tuesday, he's breaking down founder-led marketing: how to position your product so anyone gets it in one sentence, how to build attention before you ship, and what a founder can do alone, without a marketing team or a budget. Tuesday, 4PM CEST. Remote and open to everyone.

A new Umbra is coming. V2 arrives in Q4, with a much bigger vision for @UmbraPrivacy. V1 proved that demand for onchain privacy is real. With V2, Umbra aims to become a complete privacy stack for every financial asset. What to expect: - Transfers and swaps will become 10x to 15x faster - Multi-asset shielded pools will bring borrowing, yield farming, payments and transactions under one privacy layer As Umbra evolves into an infrastructure network, more advanced compliance tools will make integrations with other projects easier. And of course, the token will keep its special place, with an even stronger role in Umbra V2. We’ll learn more about the network architecture as we get closer to the release. Perhaps the best way to put it is this: Umbra will make privacy fast, safe, and easy enough for anyone to use.

"Real businesses could bring the next wave of capital onchain" Ansem on what makes @crediblefin one of the most interesting businesses bringing ownership onchain through @MetaDAOProject: “They’re making a good amount of money right now. It’s actually a real business, a real startup, and the token is completely aligned with the equity.” “If people see those startups doing well, that’s what is going to attract a lot more institutional capital into the space.” - @blknoiz06 MetaDAO is making the onchain market bigger than speculation by opening it to real businesses, real revenue, and aligned ownership.

“You’re either going to win big or you’re going to lose” Vukan, Co-Founder of @JurassicFi, at the MetaDAO Inaugural Ownership Meeting on why the team chose a permissionless raise despite the odds: “There have been around 50 raises, 45 failed, and the five that succeeded became heavily oversubscribed. It’s a mixed bag” “My co-founder @Sora_i_guess was skeptical, so we spoke with every launchpad we could but nothing was really as good as @MetaDAOProject” “Jurassic was not a project yet, it was just an idea” “Tokenizing dinosaurs was simple, easy to explain, and something people could rally around” “What MetaDAO and @futarddotio gave us was a way for people to back two guys with an idea, no background in dinosaurs, and no track record as crypto founders” “People could trust that we weren’t going to rug, but there was really no trust required because we couldn’t rug” - @vukan0x Permissionless ownership gave Jurassic Finance the chance to test the idea, raise its first capital, and start building it into something real
