Wild stats:

50% of TRUMP/MELANIA holders had never bought a Solana altcoin before.

47% of buyers created their wallets the same day they purchased the tokens.

83% of holders own sub $1k of SOL assets.

This really was a historic retail onboarding event.

astute imo...sol has provably nailed the memecoin game (in terms of attention + liquidity + dopamine)

we are building other stuff over here. what will be the next killer app, post-NFT frenzy? 🌷

Those stats say it all. 

Base is for builders. Not normies. More work to do. 

everybody would be at the thrift store or on ebay tryna pay in solana fr

imagine if he did several months of gary vee style onboarding in advance of this?

can't disagree...have you seen any good write-ups on what would have happened if this much liquidity tried to move on EVM? very curious about this

biggest onboarding event in crypto history

Could not have been done on ethereum or l2s

hopefully slapped the complacency out of product teams based on ethereum 

Somehow folks who’ve been in crypto for 10 years hate it (even though it’s a dream come true)

no clue. having used sol, personally didn't think it was easier, but i also have way way more experience with evm tooling

curious what you struggled with on sol? fwiw i was using @phantomwallet

Are they true? 
If so, is SOL really that much easier? 
How did they fund the wallets?
(it was a nightmare for me to get set up)

so that’s probably all who still hold lmao, don’t think all of them did it to dump in a couple of days

great questions...i'm keeping my eyes peeled for more detailed analyses

Curious what percentage of the newbies won/lost money, and how that will impact retention. Will the losers transact again? The winners? Interesting dataset for sure

Sounds like a win for solana onboarding newbies with just one launch
