Solana

Web-Scale Blockchain for fast, secure, scalable, decentralized apps and marketplaces.

Diving into building dApps with Solana. This article & thread are nice intro guides. Anchor is best framework.

I buy SOL with FTX (SEPA transfer) and stake some in FTX itself.

If I need to use the coins, I transfer it to to Glow Wallet (Phantom Wallet is nice too). Staking in Marinade is also great as you can use mSOL you get back in some mSOL liquidity pool or Solend (not sure how useful that is) or some other way. If I need liquidity, I unstake (slowly), get SOL back, transfer to FTX, then cash out. That is if I don't use FTX staking itself (it has issue of waiting for longer time to get funds back from unstaking).

Aside from supplying mSOL to a lending protocol, Render Network is interesting too. Raydium looks like a great DeFi platform. NFToken is nice for minting NFTs.

I don't hold much cryptocurrencies including SOL as I am still trying to understand how truly useful this technology is. Thus far I see a clear use case for Monero to buy things safely that government does not allow for whatever archaic reasons. I think this space moves very fast though so maybe something truly groundbreaking comes along. Perhaps it's micro transactions (currently not possible due to Mastercard/Visa monopoly on online transactions and their 3% fees).
