My Crypto Journey

In 2021, I found out about Solana and I thought it was incredible. High TPS, low transaction costs, the future looked so bright. But, programming on Rust is not an easy feat and I did not like the core infrastructure on the blockchain

I thought the Solana technology itself was really innovative, but the core projects weren’t, especially the Solana Name Service. It appeared to me simply to be an $ENS-copy rather than building something truly special. And since then, I’ve seen the same phenomena happen over and over again.
