We’ve spent the past few days learning and training. Tomorrow, #Colosseum# Office Hours returns to take you one step closer to the real arena. 🫵 Join @decentra1ized_, Developer Relations at @SolanaFndn, for a focused @colosseum Office Hours session. Now in her fourth year with the Foundation, Chaerin Kim is helping onboard developers and growing local ecosystems across Asia. Only 3–5 teams will present their technical documents and receive direct feedback on what needs refining before Demo Day. 📅 Sep 28 | 1:00–4:30 PM (GMT+7) 💻 Online Register 👇

the porsche kinda steals the show but frontier is truly a 1/1 program will be critical leverage for solana apps as they compete for asset listings & distribution against a new cohort of rivals who are more tightly integrated than an ecosystem can or should be props to the team & glad to see superteam play a small part in helping scale the program

Why did @proofofjamal decide to join @SolanaFndn? "People are realizing that blockchain-based payments have created some of the best and newest infrastructure for global payments, especially across borders." "I think @solana has been at the forefront of that, building across various sectors, getting into the trenches, working with some of the largest payment companies," says the Foundation's new General Manager of Payments. Some of that work is already public: > Western Union's stablecoin launch on Solana > Visa's stablecoin settlements on the network > A steady run of new enterprise pilots "A lot of enterprises are asking us, what do we build and how do we do it? Who do we work with? How do we structure this? How do we architect this?" "I think the perfect storm is here. There's a lot of pieces, and I think now is the time to dig in and build."

Rachel Conlan, Chief Strategy Officer at the Solana Foundation, on the token supercycle. "As I look at Solana, not just the developers but the broad range of projects, and the centerpiece it occupies in the ecosystem, it's at that juncture of being part of the next stage: the total reimagination and rebuilding of financial infrastructure. We're now in the stage of becoming part of the technology layer of the future of finance." @RachelConlan @FINTECHTVglobal @RemyBlaireNews

You cannot easily manufacture thousands of people who actually care enough to keep carrying a narrative after the incentives disappear. And this is where Solana is different. Solana has one of crypto’s last real, living cultures at scale. ........ And it has vibes.
