I think this is good but should be ONLY: BTC, ETH, SUI, SOL, XRP, RENDER, and LINK

Hey fellow Odin enthusiasts!
I wanted to share an update on the ongoing supply burn for Odin, as it’s a significant part of our ecosystem and helps in enhancing the value of our tokens.
📊 **Total Burned to Date:**
- 🪙 **5082637.64706 ODIN**
- 🔥 **63.18823 SOL**
The monthly burn has been consistent, and it's exciting to see how our community's participation is contributing to the overall health of the project. Each burn not only reduces the total supply but also strengthens our commitment to creating value.
Let’s keep the momentum going! What are your thoughts on the burn strategy? How do you think it will impact the future of Odin? Looking forward to hearing your opinions!
Stay strong and keep hodling! 🚀

So for ETH/BTC and SOL/BTC, I'm assuming Bitcoin dominance falls when ETH and SOL strengthens against BTC? Thanks btw

BTC.D

USD.T is also extremely useful. (Overlay BTC on this & you might shit your pants at where the cycles bottom / top. Shout out Bitfinex.)

ETH/BTC is a pair of ETH vs BTC. This can help find bottoms in alts, specifically ETH itself. SOL/BTC is another pair.

I mean you can invest in bitcoin but it’s more like a 401k at over 100k a coin now …I personally do not have any bitcoin but I am loaded up on ETH and SOL…..unless you are a whale , Bitcoin will NEVER give you life changing money at this point …..it would have to hit a million just to 10X what you put into it …..you will never see big gains with Bitcoin but if you are in it for years to come , I would put money into bit…..I am invested for life changing money …..to me , ETH and SOL are the ones I believe will do it

Did you guys see that? You can literally send SOL to your grandpa now by just tagging $voovo, her X account and the Sol amount. IS THAT EASY! crazy...

What you think of LTC with only 80 mill max supply, it's been around as long as BTC and could be a sleeper, especially if it gets SEC approval for a spot ETF later this year. Realistically it could go up 30 to 40 percent and unlikely but possible over 1k per coin. Wouldn't LTC or even XRP be a better 3rd option than SOL? or at least dived it up between those 3 instead of all on SOL?

Hey everyone!
I’m currently working on a Solana-based project and need some testnet SOL to deploy and test smart contracts.
Faucet isn’t working for me right now, so if anyone has a bit to spare, I’d really appreciate it 🙌
My testnet wallet: EJrqwSwozgndBZPy8RDu6a7j5nV3YyxNW2HKF5SP77XZ
Thanks in advance, and I’ll be sure to pay it forward once I’m stocked up!
Cheers 🧡

$150K this cycle… Last Cycle about $50K and got up to $1 Mil, only cashed out $250K because I got greedy. My picks this go around are SOL and CGPT. A balance of safe and risk/reward.

Ok, we're not just having some fun at $SMALLPIPI.
We're building a set of lightweight Telegram bots aimed at giving early-stage, legitimate projects access to practical DeFi tools, without needing deep technical knowledge.
**Betting Bot: On-chain P2P gambling, directly in Telegram**
This bot allows users to place bets against each other inside Telegram groups, with every step (escrow, resolution, and payout) handled by smart contracts. It’s fast, intuitive, and requires zero DeFi experience.
It’s a simple, performance-based way to benefit community wallet and boost the project with fun and engagement.
**SPP BOOST Volume Bot: So simple, it’s addictive.**
Currently live on Meteora (but already tested on several other pools), this bot lets users boost the project with minimal effort. Anyone in the community ( betting bot winners, holders, or even just active members) can tip the bot and make it go faaast.
Earnings from the Betting Bot can be used to fund the Volume Bot. So if someone wins a bet, they can immediately reinvest to support their own token. It’s fluid, it’s fast, and it encourages healthy on-chain activity.
In early testing, the bot was able to push approximately $10,000 in volume for just 0.25 SOL. One of the lowest costs we’ve seen for this kind of activity.
**These bots are fast, simple, and completely powered by Solana. No smart contract deployment, no coding, and no complex setup, just plug them into your TG group and start experimenting.**
The team is clearly building with intent. The broader goal is the creation of a modular support ecosystem, a kind of lightweight infrastructure layer, that can help new, honest projects find momentum and legitimacy in their earliest stages.
And you haven’t even seen the original artwork yet. **Sick**.

Starting with Bitcoin and Ethereum as your core is smart—they’re the blue-chips that anchor any portfolio. Earning yield on SOL via Phantom and Revolut is fine, but once you’ve built your base you can rotate some gains into emerging DeFi infra.
For example, I’ve been adding Saros on Solana for its zero-slippage AMM and built-in farms in one slick app. On the data-side I like Ocean Protocol for AI-ready on-chain datasets, and I’m also watching Flux for decentralized compute and The Graph for reliable indexing across chains. That way you capture upside from both major networks and next-gen builders.

Coins/Tokens are still insanely popular. They were just priced off of ethereum / the subsidization of SOL ate that market.

# 🧅 Onion DAO
OnionDAO is a four-week coworking space designed for developers working within the Solana ecosystem taking place in Chicago from June 16 to July 11, and offers Solana developers an extended opportunity to collaborate, build, and exchange knowledge in a shared space. 
The concept is modeled after similar initiatives like mtnDAO and aims to provide an alternative to short-term hackathons or conferences.
The coworking space is located in an 18,000-square-foot office in Chicago’s Loop district and provides:
* 24/7 access for participants
* Office amenities including monitors, conference rooms, and kitchens
* Social features such as a basketball court, ping pong, and informal gathering areas
The format is intentionally unstructured for most of the day, promoting collaboration and informal technical discussions. 
Scheduled activities are kept to a minimum, with the exception of targeted workshops, developer onboarding sessions, and optional evening or weekend events.
An example of a focused week is *University Week*, scheduled during the second week, which will target student developers and include potential mini hackathons or workshops.
The event is free to attend, applications are required for entry, and developers are encouraged to apply in advance.
*Why "Onion"? Chicago's name originates from a Native American word meaning "place of wild onions."*

# 📜 21Shares State of Crypto Report
State of Crypto 14, the latest entry in a research series by 21Shares, dedicates the entire report to Solana.
The authors provide a deep-dive into Solana’s architecture, link performance metrics to emerging product categories, highlight where capital and users are concentrating, and flag infrastructure gaps that still need solving.
# Key Highlights:
* In Jan–Feb 2025 Solana processed $364B, more than half of Nasdaq’s matched equity volume and ahead of both Ethereum and Coinbase during the same period. 
* Stablecoin float on the network has grown 600% in a year to more than $12B, attracting payments integrations from Visa, PayPal, Shopify and Stripe.
* DeFi TVL reached roughly $8B in Q1 2025, shrinking the ETH/SOL TVL gap from 20:1 to 5:1, and Solana has led DEX volume for six consecutive months. 
* New developer sign-ups rose 83 percent year-on-year, overtaking Ethereum for the first time.
The authors devote entire sections to two newer verticals:
* **DePIN:** Projects such as Helium, Hivemapper, Render and [io.net](http://io.net) demonstrate that real-world infrastructure can be coordinated onchain.
* **AI Agents:** Roughly two-thirds of open source AI agent activity tracked by GitHub now targets Solana thanks to toolkits like Agent Kit and hackathons.
Developers looking for high-volume use cases will find the full document worth a deep read.

# 🚅 The Path to Decentralized Nasdaq
Max Resnick and Anatoly Yakovenko explore how Solana can evolve to match and surpass the performance of traditional exchanges like NASDAQ.
They argue that today’s blockchain architecture, particularly Solana’s single-leader model and reliance on Jito Auctions, puts market makers at a disadvantage, leading to wider spreads and less efficient markets.
Their solution is a fundamental redesign of Solana’s consensus to introduce multiple concurrent leaders, enabling fairer transaction ordering and reducing censorship risk.
The article also outlines a new fee-based system for merging blocks and proposes tools to give apps more control over transaction sequencing, with a high-level vision for unlocking competitive, decentralized markets.
[**The Path to Decentralized Nasdaq**](https://www.anza.xyz/blog/the-path-to-decentralized-nasdaq?ref=blog.colosseum.org)
# ⭐ Highlights of the Week
[**Proposed Handling of Resized Funds**](https://x.com/MetaPsilo/status/1919810904973320546?ref=blog.colosseum.org)
This proposal is for a new approach for how to handle the Metaplex DAO excess SOL from the Token Metadata Resize program, suggesting to stake the unclaimed SOL, allowing NFT holders to claim their funds at any time while generating rewards to fund community driven initiatives like grants and public goods.
[**Crypto and the Evolution of the Capital Markets**](https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5250986&ref=blog.colosseum.org)
This paper argues that blockchain can address inefficiencies in traditional securities markets by enabling efficient asset ownership and trading. By tracing the history of market inefficiencies since the 1960s, she critiques the current intermediary-heavy system, advocates for blockchain as a modern solution, and emphasizes blockchain’s potential to revolutionize capital markets.
[**Issuing Tokenized Equities on Solana Report**](https://solana.com/tr/tokenized-equities?ref=blog.colosseum.org)
A new 26-page report explores how Solana is positioned to transform capital markets through equity tokenization. Key highlights include native compliance support via token extensions, the technical capacity to handle up to 10% of NASDAQ’s daily volume, and cost savings from programmable features like dividends, stock splits, and voting.

Trouble buying SOL in Canada

Wassup fellas!
I was just scrolling ct like usual, and came across this project called BlastIn. At first I thought it was another meme coin or party gimmick… but holy sh\*t — these guys are actually building something real.
It’s basically an on-chain party ecosystem (yes, parties – IRL ones), with token integration, NFTs, and real-world utility.
And it gets even better:
The devs are doxxed, posting real updates every single day on twitter and discord and even interacting and implementing feedback very quick (fixed some ui bug in hours lol). Never seen such insane commitment for a crypto project.
Dev supply is locked – and there’s an airdrop live right now you can still claim for downloading and testing the app and providing feedback.
Token roadmap also just dropped today and seems packed with stuff. Building seems like the first priority for them.

Check the roadmap out here:https://www.blastin.app/kopie-von-home
It still is pretty much under the radar, few people talking about it on twitter and so far looks like a hidden gem, as people still chasing some useless memes on sol and the demo app is already fully functional and working - even kinda smooth to use aswell!
Below are their website, socials, discord and the token adress:
Token (SOL): 6KYuMehGtFKx5NV4UmAWyFKwMJbnnybFBxKCq1VMpump
Website: [https://www.blastin.app/](https://www.blastin.app/)
Twitter: [https://x.com/BLASTinPublic](https://x.com/BLASTinPublic)
Discord: [https://discord.gg/kPh6t4Vf](https://discord.gg/kPh6t4Vf)
NFA of course!

Alright degenerates, I’ve got one for you that nobody is talking about yet, and I’m honestly surprised it hasn’t shown up here. I just spent way too many hours going down the rabbit hole on a ticker called **$DFDV**, and this thing is basically the **first public Solana accumulator** hiding in plain sight on the Nasdaq. LOOK IT UP.
Da Alpha: while everyone’s hyped about the idea of Solana ETFs, these guys are doing something *completely* different. ETFs just give you temporary exposure to price movement. You pay fees, you track the price, and you get zero yield. That’s it. You’re renting exposure. $DFDV is out here **permanently stacking SOL**, staking it, running validators, and actually compounding their position over time. Their entire business is to **increase how much SOL backs each share of DFDV**. That’s their KPI. They don’t sell. They just stack.
They already run one of the largest public validators on Solana with over **650,000 SOL delegated**, and they’re partnered with big names like **Kraken** and **BitGo**. They even just announced a validator partnership with **$BONK**, the top Solana memecoin with almost a million holders. Imagine telling your financial advisor that you’re long a public company that’s partnered with a dog coin on Solana. Absolute degeneracy. SEND ITTTTT.
But here’s the real kicker. Their capital strategy is actually **smart as hell**. When their stock trades way above the value of the SOL they hold, they sell stock **into the market** and use the cash to buy even more SOL, **growing SOL per share** for everyone already holding. It’s literally accretive dilution. And when their stock compresses back down toward NAV, they **pivot to convertibles** to avoid blowing out the cap table. They also recently filed an S-3 to buy $1 billion in SOL.
And if you’re wondering why they aren’t doing this with Bitcoin, it's pretty simple....Solana is faster, cheaper, and **earns staking yield**. SOL is also way more volatile and still growing into its fundamentals (literally most used chain in crypto, most revenue, most users, etc.). DFDV is buying SOL, staking it while it vests, and compounding harder than any ETF ever could. Meanwhile, they’re scaling their validator business with Kraken, BONK, and others. They’re literally turning public market capital into validator rewards and stacking SOL on behalf of shareholders.
Oh, and the backstory is just as wild. They quietly took over a random Nasdaq company and converted it into a crypto treasury vehicle. No SEC approval needed. No Nasdaq vote. Just a friendly takeover. Now they’re sitting on a live listing, stacking SOL, and partnering with the biggest names in the Solana ecosystem.

mint your SOL for free

If it is not SOL, AIOZ then. Fair entry price of $0.4 and has the chance to at least x3 before EOY as it did more than x4 last year.

I feel like I’m too late to buy SOL or eth rn or switch positions everything’s pumped tf up.

Trade XRP for SOL. HBAR is fine. I'd probably sell IMX but idk enough about it.
