🤝: Some In Solana Community Still Seething
The good news for Solana is that a critical vulnerability in its Token-2022 standard was successfully patched last month, allowing the network to avert potential disaster. But despite what was, technically, a victory, the incident's hush-hush nature spawned a backlash.
One community member, Clouted, first called attention to the private nature of the patch coordination. “Am I hearing this right?" Clouted said on X on April 17. "There was a zero-day on Solana mainnet and ... [less than 70%] of validators privately colluded to upgrade and patch the critical bug ... before it was even made public?”
And then a vocal Ethereum community member, Ryan Berckmans, chimed in with a warning about such coordinated efforts which can compromise decentralization.
But defenders of discreetness, including Anatoly Yakovenko, CEO of Solana Labs, pointed out how Bitcoin quietly patched a serious inflationary bug in 2018. That incident appeared to show how coordinated, non-public fixes are "sometimes the only viable approach in the face of critical vulnerabilities," said Coin360.
This entire discussion continues to generate unwanted attention as Solana awaits word of a possible spot SOL ETF. Solana is on a roll, awash in dApp activity. So much so that Solana led the blockchain sector in terms of total revenue during Q1.
Its native token, SOL, however, has shed 4% over the past two weeks as it struggles to stay above $150. SOL's all-time high of $293.31 came on January 19, according to CoinGecko.

Tokenization is no longer a concept it’s a movement, and @brickken is at the core of it.
In the latest @Cointelegraph article, @Brickken stands out among the big names driving the real-world asset (RWA) revolution.
Their CTO, @Felipedonofrio, nailed it: “Macroeconomic pressures are pushing institutions to search for efficiency and liquidity in traditionally illiquid markets.”
This is the edge Brickken is building on, delivering the infrastructure for RWA tokenization in a world demanding more transparency, liquidity, and efficiency.
Brickken stands out:
☑️ They’re not theorizing; they’re executing.
☑️ They understand that wallet evolution, scalable tech, and regulatory momentum are creating the perfect storm for adoption.
☑️ They’re bridging traditional assets with Web3 in a compliant, robust way.
Tokenization is the future and @Brickken is already building it today. With 300m+ tokenized asset can we all agree that Brickken $BKN is the king of tokenization? 👀

In case you're curious how $SXT Rewards are allocated for Chainlink Rewards: Season Genesis
If you staked $LINK in v0.1, you get +2,250 $SXT
If you staked $LINK in v0.2, you get +1,500 $SXT
If you were actively staking $LINK as of March 31, 2025, then you get an amount of $SXT based on your time-weighted average stake (~18K $SXT if you max staked since v0.2 launched, ~24K $SXT if you max staked since v0.1)
All of the above is additive so if you max staked $LINK in v0.1 + v0.2 since the beginning and were actively staking on March 31, then you'd get ~28K $SXT
