I gathered some interesting facts about $SOL — a blockchain known for its transaction speed and low fees, but its history is full of quirks.

In 2021, the network 'crashed' for 17 hours due to bots attacking the decentralized exchange. Developers had to 'restart' the blockchain, which led to a wave of memes on social media.

In 2022, a hacker stole $100 million in tokens, but mistakenly sent part of it to a non-existent address, giving the community a reason to joke about 'donating to nowhere'.

In 2023, a bug in the Solana wallet caused users to accidentally burn their NFTs while trying to transfer them.

Another funny moment: early Solana users joked that their validators 'heat up better than a home heater'.

Solana is a technology seasoned with a comedy of errors and human factors.
