THE

SOLANA

PLUG

Host of @DownunderPC | @TheAlphaDAO

My Current Position on NFTs Right now I believe at least

on $SOL we’re still facing a crisis of sorts. Without blowing

it out of proportion like everything is hitting the fan,

I’m less concerned about where we are now rather than

where we are headed. I’ll dive into this.

The Standards of Solana. There are a few angles I want

to look at this from. 1. The projects, be it design or ambitions

in themselves. 2. The people who oddly engage in

these things. 3. How we can potentially find a fix or move

towards something better.

Crypto is inherently decentralized and that’s what makes

it so beautiful and so freeing. However, I do believe even in

a decentralized world we have our own social paradigms

and our social standards. In my eyes, there’s a total lack of

business standards in NFTs.

See, as NFTs are inherently a business in themselves the

real money comes from big investors. The issue is SOL

projects are not acting like brands or business’s. These

big investors are generally invested in 2 things, Branding

(@BoredApeYC) or Tech (@GenesysGo)

Projects are being planned on Monday and minted on Friday

and the issue realistically is, PEOPLE ARE CONSUM-

ING THEM. Accountability should be held on projects to

attempt greater and higher things than, pixel art and grape

verification + listing on secondary.
