1/3 There are many reasons to love @solana, especially decentralization. Still, there is room for improvement on the RPC layer. Our mission is to be useful to the crypto community, so our @extrnode team released a list of 80+ public RPC nodes for @solana that anyone can use. pic.twitter.com/6qC7Cxtmse
It seems like it's only a matter of time before royalties are completely ignored by all major marketplaces in $SOL. This is something I foresaw after Yawww started getting some attention. No one wants to lose positioning in the market, so it makes sense to follow.

Getting Started w/ Solana A 🧵 🔽
Low txn fees & better UI/UX on @solana are enabling an iteration of innovative non-financial primitives, but it can be hard to tell which ones are good... So I put together this list (not affiliated) to get you started. You'll notice a lot of @multicoincap bags, ofc:

NGL @nftinspect is one of the BEST analytics tool I have seen in awhile. Differentiated + super valuable data that's very insightful! The extension is also super USEFUL. Download it & vote to unlock all the SOL collections. PFP usage is hard to manipulate. @nootrality = BEAST pic.twitter.com/fDMp77GCap
1/ Here is your weekend read folks! A thread about wallet best practices, multisigs and Squads.
1/ Ethereum NFTs are tokens generated from smart contracts that are created for each NFT collection, while Solana NFTs are all just ordinary SPL tokens with fixed supply. Thoughts on pros/cons of each implementation (somewhat technical), after coding with both for FTX NFTs:

Why I'm betting on Solana over Ethereum 🧵
@lessin @moskov Most of my time has been looking into Solana. That’s what gave more of the ah ha scalability wise. Also I think for us web2 folks I was imagining “how will everything be stored here” and now I’m like no that’s not the point. A few things can create all the leverage.
1/ Here's a thread of all the Solana threads I've written (a thread of threads), plus some great threads/tweets by other folks. I'll try to keep adding onto this in the future. First, 11 resources to get started with Solana development twitter.com/pencilflip/sta…
We've partnered with @solana to integrate it into the browser and make it the default for DApp support. We will soon bring best-in-class wallet features for the Solana blockchain into our desktop & mobile browsers. #BreakpointLisbon brave.com/solana-partner…
We are co-leading @Syndica_io’s $8m Seed Round. Syndica is building scalable developer infrastructure for the thriving @solana ecosystem - doing for Web3 what cloud providers did for Web2. They’re hiring so if you want to work at the AWS of Web3, DM @SyndicaisHiring.
PDAs, or program derived addresses, are one of the trickier #Solana concepts 🤔. They're also something that every Solana dev should understand. In this thread, I'll go over what they are, and why they're useful 👇
I love #Solana and the community and I want to start being more active. It’s important that my followers who don’t know about NFTs learn bc we’re about to make history w/ @LooksRareStudio. Need y’all to download phantom.app asap #SolanaSongz
