Wonder why Solana daily active addresses are skyrocketing past month?
Seems like new washtrading/volume bots are getting smarter, instead of doing 300K txs on like 5 wallets, they are now rotating wallets, even after just 1 tx sometimes
Solana Total Fees and Jito tips are down 50%+ since Justin Sun copied pumpfun on Tron
Seems like many degens grew tired of the sol casino and moved on to the tron casino
I'd say Solana shitcoin casino moat is now much smaller, as most of the infra (bots/snipers) are already multichain/offer chain abstraction so entry level to gambling on another chain is much lower than before
ie:
Keep in mind like 80%+ of the fees generated on Solana are priority fees/MEV tips
If most of the gamblers move, these will gravitate to $0
They're also highly skewed by bots, I'd say tx/prio fees from bots probably have a 100x disparity than from normal users
Avg fee for photon/bullx/bonkbot is like $1-2+, Avg user fee is much lower
This one is a spicy account of one of the biggest FRAUDS in crypto EVER, that rarely gets talked about in the media, while its authors roam free
How $WAVES , @viresfinance and @sasha35625 Rugged users NOT 1, NOT 2, but SEVEN TIMES on their SCAM Chain, a thread 👇

Rug #1:
@viresfinance was launched in 2021 and quickly became the major $WAVES money market, attracted nearly $2B of capital at its height
Everyone was still coming off the crazy yield farming days and the yield offered was very attractive, looked like a decent opportunity

What was going in the background was far more serious. It turns out that someone was behind the scenes borrowing all $USDT / $USDC on chain with $USDN collateral (their algo stable) , and consequently sending it to exchanges to buy $WAVES and pump the price
