Let’s talk about Solana ($SOL) — the chain that got clowned during the FTX crash, dismissed as “centralized,” and declared dead by maxis… yet here it is, making noise again.

📊 The Numbers Don’t Lie:

TPS (Transactions per Second): ~65K (still unmatched at Layer 1)

Fees: ~$0.00025 — while Ethereum gas fees are still rage-worthy

TVL (Total Value Locked): Recovered from under $300M to over $5B in under a year

Ecosystem Growth: BONK, JUP, PYTH, and NFT projects like Mad Lads are driving actual use cases

🧠 Why It's Interesting:

Solana is betting on speed and user experience. It’s not trying to be the “most decentralized” — it’s trying to be usable at scale. Is that a trade-off? Yes. But do people care when they can mint, swap, and play games without paying $30 gas? Also yes.

⚠️ Risks You Can’t Ignore:

Still recovering reputation from the FTX collapse

Validator centralization is still a valid concern

Competing L2s on Ethereum (Base, Blast) are gaining attention fast

🧠 My Take (Not Financial Advice):

$SOL isn’t just surviving — it’s adapting. If the next bull run favors UX and scalability, it’s one of the few L1s that’s already delivering. But this isn’t a buy signal — it’s a watch closely signal. #solana $SOL
