Featured Articles
Over the past 24 hours, the crypto market has witnessed a simultaneous advancement from macro narratives to specific ecosystem competitions. Mainstream topics are focused on the further popularization of AI agent tools, the controversy sparked by politicians issuing memes leading to suspected rug pulls, and the speculation discussions surrounding "mainnet of privacy coins + token expectations." In terms of ecosystem development, Solana's transaction gateway acceleration towards decentralization and gamified growth, Ethereum's deep discussions around "testnet departure," privacy implementation, and institutional buying pressure, and the Perp DEX track continuously repricing in equity perpetuals and the HIP-3 ecosystem outbreak have intensified the competition.
2. "A Developer's Three Years Wasted on Base"
Base once used the slogan "Build on Base. We will support you." to attract numerous developers, but the reality often fell into silence. The author of this article, @weretuna, is the co-founder of @pndmdotorg, a studio focused on building viral Ponzi-style chain games on Solana. Drawing on the team's three-year journey, the article recounts their experiences from investment, waiting, and disappointment to a rapid increase in activity after migrating to Solana: what determines the success or failure of an ecosystem is never just a slogan, but rather who is willing to provide real resources and attention to the application. For all builders still "waiting for support," this is a stark reminder of reality.
