Primary Research on Solana Developer Sentiment👇
"It's a capital mistake to theorize before one has data"-Sherlock Holmes
Lots of commentary on Solana devs the past week so decided to go direct to the source and ask Sol devs how they're feeling, data collected from devs (n=107)
Survey Questions: 1. How are you feeling about Solana? 2. Are you deploying on any other chains? 3. Developer Solana NPS 4. Consumer Solana NPS 5. Developer experience of building on Solana? 6. Was your team directly impacted by FTX?
MEV as a % of Blockspace (MEV / Non-vote Txns) currently hovering around 6-9%

Macro/Inflation Trends have been a big topic in the Crypto space.
Was very much in @ThinkingUSD's camp regarding inflation vs. @mattysino but after listening to @RaoulGMI realized there is more nuance. Shout out to @ledgerstatus and @UpOnlyTV for driving the convos
Thread: (1/n)
@ThinkingUSD Macro Thesis: 1. Federal Reserve has bought 50-60% of all US treasuries issued by US govt since Covid
started. US Govt issuing bonds, selling to the Fed.
2. US deficit so big right now that no one can absorb it other than the Fed, basically financing themselves
