Follow the @SolfatePod show on Twitter for updates. Thanks for listening frens :)

Notes from the show

Nick and James talks about the recent Solana Bootcamp/workshop that the Solana Foundation’s DevRel team hosted in the NYC office. Plus the Solana NYC hackerhouse has just come to a close and it was amazing!

Huge thanks to all the show listeners that met Nick at the NYC hackerhouse and said they were a fan or listener of the show! It’s things like this that motivate us to keep doing this show!

In light of the recent SEC lawsuits alleging that many top cryptocurrencies and tokens are securities, we talk at a high level what some of the allegations are and what it could me.

James expresses his opinion about this market reaction to this news to be an overcorrection and that “we will weather it, and we will be fine”.
