The most dangerous thing in Web3 is not the air coins, not the Rug projects, but our accustomed logic of being 'unanchored'.
It has been too long since we had assets with real value support. From Memecoins to Narratives, with narratives in one hand and market capitalization in the other, they rise absurdly and fall heartbreakingly.
Solana has launched its first RWA project 66GOLD, which is directly linked to physical gold, backed by the Mponeng gold mine, with real mining and reserves on the chain.
Buy gold and get tokens; the gold is real gold, and the tokens are supported by Solana's low gas fees, liquidity on-chain, and a long-term value design of the buyback mechanism.
This is what I understand as a return of the 'gold standard' on the chain.
Having missed the era of BTC tied to computing power and ETH tied to AI, this combination of gold + RWA + Solana may truly be a long-term value investment suitable for ordinary people.
If in the past we were trading dreams in thin air, then 66GOLD is the first time I feel like I've grasped something substantial.
