Went to my first ever @SolanaConf this week and met some truly cool people working on some truly cool projects If you don’t see me for the next 3 months it’s because it’s time to lock tf in and keep building. So excited for what’s ahead

Why is using a crypto wallet (literally a json key) w/ a dapp still so annoying? Mobile: funneled into wallet app’s in-app browser. If it even has one. Desktop: funneled into browsers w/ support for phantom, etc. Not a great look when onboarding everyday folks to crypto

Love Solana + Anchor, but the moment you need to read a stake account it’s back to the dark ages. Nearing the end of 2025 and still requiring manual deserialization for everything that's not a token... We need #[derive(InterfaceAccount)] yesterday.
