Everyone checks volume. Almost nobody checks whether the volume is real. @bencirc, CEO of @Circular_fi, on why arbitrage revenue is the cleanest fake-volume filter on Solana "You can check every data related to the arbitrage, the revenue, the volume, but also which token is generating money and generating revenue. This is kind of a proof of volatility, or a proof of volume" "As you know, a lot of meme coins are wash traded. There's a lot of fake volume, a lot of fake transactions. If you just work on the arbitrage, you can find some real activity based on that" "Because if a token generates a lot of revenue directly related to arbitrage, you can say okay, at least part of this volume is not wash trade. Why? Because a lot of traders lost value into this token, which means there's a lot of real activity in it"

Every wallet on @solana is built for one person. Mike is building for the other case. @heymike777, founder of @cashflow_fi, on the problem he hit in his own home "Currently financial products are built for individuals, and I'm a really family-focused founder. When I tried to set up a treasury for my family, set up a saving account for my son, it's just impossible. Banking apps are designed for individuals, Solana wallets are designed for individuals" "We are saving money for a new car with my wife, and also we have a saving account for our kids since he was born four years ago. And I had to set up a hardware wallet for each of these goals" "So it's just not super comfortable, and only I have access to all these wallets. And in case something happens with me, it will be pretty hard to get access to all these funds. That's why we built Cashflow"

Ship Talk #8# is here. 🚢 Theme: The Invisible Layer of Onchain. Every time you hit confirm, two things happen that nobody tells you about. Somebody makes money off your trade, and somebody writes down who you are. Same second, both invisible. This Friday, two @colosseum builders going after each one come on the mic. 📅 Friday, Aug 21 | 4PM UTC. Cohosted by @sagapad_icm x @solana_stream Featuring: @Circular_fi @GeSIMxyz Let's talk about the SHIPPING. 🔥
