I often get asked why we didn’t just build our own L1 There are many considerations that go into building a business, and in crypto… Where you choose to build is one of the most important For us, we see a future where traditional finance moves onchain. Which will result in trillions of yearly volume hitting our orderbooks These institutional players will be looking for battle tested, globally distributed networks that have been proven to handle scale over extended periods of time To build an entire ecosystem that is secured by a distributed validator set is something that many people overlook. This takes years to build and even longer to get institutional acceptance on Jun and I have been navigating the crypto trenches for the last 8 years, and come at things from 2 opposite ends of the spectrum Jun has contributed to some of the largest protocols in the world on Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana… his viewpoint is that from an engineering standpoint, there is no better infrastructure that provides the rails for us to settle on better than Solana I have made my career in community and marketing, again spanning from Ethereum, NEAR and Solana. One thing that really solidified that Solana has more than tech was how the ecosystem was propped up by its participants during events that could have killed the chain Beyond this, there has never been such a readymade distribution funnel for people wanting to try great products. If you have something even remotely interesting, there are folks that want to try it We want to build a trading venue that is capable of handle any number, and any variety of markets. To do this, there was no clearer choice to call home I can’t promise what the markets are going to do, but what I can promise is that you will soon be able to witness what over 2 years of grind and sacrifice can achieve if the right minds are set to task Solana will be competitive on perps once again, and we will be the driving force ensuring that happens

Ok @mert, I will take it from here... @solana is the chain for: >Building a business with readymade distribution >The fastest, battle-tested validator eco >Generating the most app revenue >Seeing the most capital inflow >The most elite businesses willing to collaborate

Big week

2025: Biggest product launch of the year 2026: Biggest TGE of the year

This is a huge problem for Solana right now Validators are starting to lose money and flipping commissions to 100% to try and stay afloat We have a solution for this... It's time to start prepping your validators to run BULK

Keep pouring your shit pints and I’ll keep sinking a proper one 🫡

4 years ago I worked to prove my worth as a moderator for an NFT project. Today, I just closed an angel round for my startup at an 8 figure valuation. I didn’t go to university, I didn’t really go to school. What I did was grind 7 days a week and refused to quit. Get to work🫡

We launched a solana validator that receives direct share in revenue from the orderbook it’s powering This makes the validator provide better yield than anywhere else. Now the only way other validators stay competitive, is by also running the orderbook Thanks for playing 🫡

Why do we need another perps DEX? The industry has fallen into a complete disconnect for what a perps DEX actually is. There is not a single DEX in the top 10 today. All of our 'leaders' run on single sequencers or have some central point of control. Can we really blame users for not caring? People care about products. Products need to be good before anything else. It is not enough to be censorship resistant. It must comes as a benefit on top of an already good product. You cannot expect people to care about decentralisation if they are having to sacrifice their experience in order to support it. We will launch the best trading environment this ecosystem has ever seen. Not because we are decentralised... But because we are better on every single metric available. This is 2 years of research, sacrifice and a sheer determination to solve the biggest problem in crypto today. The ecosystem needs a perps DEX that actually does what it says on the tin... That is @bulktrade

My thesis for why Solana tokens typically don’t do well: These apps make a tonne of money but more often than not, there is very little value accrual to their tokens Planning to change this

Just waiting for testnet

Yo @bonk_inu Whoever your marketing lead is… give them a raise

Why hasn’t DeFi taken over global finance? In a word where crypto seems to be at ATH for mindshare, the meaningful impact for the arrival of institutional capital remains lacklustre. There is of course the argument for clearer regulations allowing the big players to feel more comfortable in making the move… But we really haven’t solved infrastructure. Our story has always started with the core promise of crypto. A world where finance is open, censorship resistant and permissionless. Although we have nailed the basics like lending, swapping and custody, there is still one giant problem not being solved… Trading. Any financial market at scale uses an orderbook. It powers the stock market, the most prominent CEXs and any other venue that handles large amounts of volume. These venues demand execution that we simply don’t have in the DEX landscape. The performance deficit has always been the achilles heel for DeFi. Failed orders, slow fills or outright halts on trading during volatility. This is what we have almost come to expect right now. If this is happening with the volume we see now… What do you think happens when 500T a year is being pushed through this infra? For the longest time, we have seen the goalposts continue to be pushed wider and wider, sacrificing performance or decentralisation. If we are not aiming for both, we are not achieving what we set out to. To make DeFi the default for global capital, we need execution worth quoting into, with absolutely ZERO compromise on censorship resistance. We can keep going back and forth about who’s got a better experience right now, but even the best venues today have trust assumptions that cannot exist in a permissionless world. Like most things… It’s hard to visualise what something is going to look like based solely on words… But my promise to you is that come the end of this year, we will have a product genuinely capable of handling the level of volume everyone is so desperate to have in crypto. Once the venue is proven, it is then about ensuring that the product is a complete offering, providing more markets that just perpetuals, and allowing other markets to leverage the infrastructure that I believe will reshape global finance. You will have an experience that is unlike ANYTHING that you have currently traded on. Believe me or not, I am actually past caring… But you would be a fool to not at least take a look once it is here.

Most founders have to deal with FUD Me? I have to deal with my own community making stuff like this:

Interesting... @wallet

A lot of talk around marketing on $NEAR right now. I have been having many conversations about @NEARProtocol recently and this is my take from a marketers perspective:

The best event of the year is always Breakpoint This year... I will be on stage, yapping about @bulktrade Thank you for your attention to this matter 🫡

Hi, I’m Kobie! I drink pints and smoke malboro reds I’m building a perp DEX (yes, another one) I don’t want to meet any of you We shouldn’t grab a coffee sometime xo

This week - I was able to tell my mother that she doesn’t have to work anymore. She still has no idea what I do for work, but she has ALWAYS supported me and being able to return the favour is the greatest blessing in the world.

The next NASDAQ will NOT run on centralised sequencers

The current @bulktrade team is 6 people I’m the only one who isn’t a dev Lesson in that

BULK is all over my timeline

One of the most bearish things you can do as a founder is talk about your token price

Your perps DEX is decentralised, right?

Moving to Asia changed my life The west has abandoned core values and makes it impossible to build a business I’d prefer to be in a place where the people are nicer, the food is better and the opportunity to make something of yourself isn’t thwarted by unreasonable tax burdens

This is where it all began for BULK I was hosting coworking events to support aspiring founders building on @solana and @junbug_sol was single-handedly responsible for the engineering work of 8 project submissions that week. From the day we met, we knew we would build something together. We spent these 2 weeks sleeping on the floor of the exchange, building the initial concept for what is now @bulktrade. Anyone present during the @SuperteamUK event will vouch for the sheer amount of hours we put into those 2 weeks… And the grind hasn’t slowed down ever since. On paper, we don’t have your traditional pedigree and are a tough bet to invest in. In practice… Our team is our superpower. We don’t come from companies you can flex… We come from the trenches. What we have built will change the course of our industry for decades to come. It’s less than 1 month until you see it for yourselves.

VCs often get a bad rep The need to raise capital is something that can’t always come from public interest, which is why early stage VCs are a huge value add The negative press i see is usually down to poor selection when choosing who to have on your cap table We were fortunate to be in a position where we could be selective with the type of partners we wanted. This ensures alignment not just from a ‘let’s make money’ perspective, but also how can they help us succeed The guys at @6thManVentures and @robotventures have been hands on and acting as advisors every step of the way From warm intros to public support, I could not be happier to have them with us for the journey Would highly recommend both to anyone raising capital 🫡

Many doubted we would be able to pull this off While we still have much to do... This was a huge milestone for us internally Beyond blessed to be surrounded by such talent 🫡

Locked and loaded for next week

If you believe Solana will be around in years to come, then the current move down is an opportunity I have continued to buy SOL yesterday and today 🫡

In a battle for protocol dominance, the majority of L1s and 2s are racing to become the fastest and most scalable blockchain. However - a common issue keeps being overlooked. @solana seems to understand this more than most, and the ecosystem is thriving as a result. Let’s talk frameworks and people infra: Having a fast, cheap and scalable blockchain is cool and all… but if you don’t have adequate resources dedicated to making your onboarding process a seamless experience, you fall short of what others can/will offer. Attracting talent is much more than advertising why people should build with you. It’s also about how you’re able to support talent coming through. Nothing can do this better than PEOPLE. Enter @SuperteamDAO Superteam was established with a mission to build regional communities across the globe that will help onboard, support and educate the next wave of builders coming into the space. The value behind this is simple. When people look to onboard, they have not only a dedicated team of experts to help with their transition, but also an entire community ready and waiting to support them. I have been lucky enough to witness and help in the process first hand and there is simply no other solution like it. Whether it’s introductions to VC/Potential partners, a consultancy call to help with building and scaling their product or just a general chat about what to expect while entering the web3 market… People have a place to go for whatever support they may need. The feeling of belonging Covid showed us that home working could be efficient, but there is still something to be said from a networking perspective when it comes to irl events. We have again witnessed the value this brings from recent Hacker Houses and Buildstations. People are once again able to seek support, guidance and invaluable insights IN PERSON via events that are taking place all over the world. Why aren't more blockchains doing this? The reason this isn’t being done by many, is because it’s genuinely no small task and it requires adequate resources and attention to ensure success. Building a qualified team in each location takes time and enabling those teams to scale and generate awareness takes a significant budget. However - the value can no longer be ignored. A final focus point… Hackathons There has always been mixed feelings on whether the Hackathon route is the best focus for onboarding, or whether TVL/trading activity should take the charge. My opinion is simple - Provide frameworks to allow people to integrate and onboard to your protocol seamlessly, then allow them the opportunity to announce their product on a global stage at a Hackathon. Not only do they get a chance to win seed funding and prize money, but the experience they will gain while competing is hard to replicate. -Building under pressure and in a short window -Pitching, demos and product review -Finding market fit -Launching marketing campaigns These are all things that every business needs to be able to do. If you’re going to raise, this is great practice. If you want to scale, you have to be able to generate awareness, and if you want to keep your community happy… you have to be able to move fast and SHIP! To summarise Launching a business in any market/niche is insanely difficult and the statistics for success don’t work in your favour. Having frameworks like this in place not only offers users something that others don’t, but it also makes for an infinitely better onboarding experience for the next wave of builders you are trying to attract. I’ve already rambled enough, but if you found value in this post, drop a like and share it for awareness. Kdot, out 🫡

I will be in Abu Dhabi for a week during Breakpoint Who am I meeting for a pint and a malboro red?

Let me tell you why prop AMM perps are a bad idea... While they have proven to be solid when it comes to spot, they are fundamentally incompatible with perps. Perps involve synthetic, leveraged positions on asset prices without expirations, settled via funding rates, margin requirements and liquidations Prop AMMs are built for actual token swaps in spot markets, where trades involve exchanging real assets and adjusting pool inventories In perps there's no physical delivery or real asset pool. Trades open notional positions against price movements, with P&L settled in collateral (mostly USDC) What happens in the scenario where the price gets too far away and the prop AMM stops quoting? There is no no counter party to fill your order, or to process liquidation flows Takers can't dynamically hedge, reprice, or close positions during volatility and the entire thing would fall over Would this be better than a standard AMM? Yes Is this 1000x inferior to a properly built orderbook? Yes Anyone telling you this is not true, either; >hasn't built one >is due to release one and coping on reality >lying

I'm spending next week exposing big players in the space. Too much bs being shared on the TL.

It’s bittersweet, but the time has come for me to move on from @SuperteamUK The network and the opportunity has been a blessing, but what I’ll miss the most is the environment we have built. @CapinUK and I set out to to provide an experience for founders to thrive while being a part of something larger than themselves. I will never forget the opportunity afforded to me. It’s a sad day today but the excitement I have for a new venture is something I can truly enjoy because of my time here. Superteam has enabled me to build a network, as well as grow as a person and professional. I will never forget the memories we’ve made and I will ensure what @splitoor and I are building provides maximum value to the ecosystem that gave us our start. Onwards and upwards 🫡

Ladies and Gentlemen of $NEAR We are back.

The chain with the most capital inflow should also dominate market share for trading Soon, it will

I go to war for @bulktrade @shizudio

Call me crazy but I kind of don’t like the thought of knowing that people can see my entire balance whenever I need to pay for something Beyond trading it’s the sector of crypto that truly needs fixing… I’ll be looking to allocate my angel cheques accordingly Privacy matters

There's a large shift happening on #NEAR that many of you aren't aware of. The single largest attempt at Decentralized Governance in #Web3 history is about to be underway! Why should you care and how can you get involved? Here’s everything you need to know 👇 Let's start with #BOS. For those of you living under a rock, @NEARProtocol has announced the launch of their Blockchain Operating System. This aligns with their clear vision to be the go-to operating system for all things Web3. But what does that actually mean? In a world of L1’s and L2’s fighting for market share, very few are focused on the larger picture that focuses on the real task at hand: Onboarding the next wave of users from OUTSIDE of the current ecosystem. This will require a collective effort with the best from ALL chains working together. Where does BOS fit into this? BOS was built with a focus towards building an infrastructure that allows for a common layer to enable browsing and discovering, compatible with ANY blockchain. Chopping build time tremendously, the BOS aims to make creating products easy, so you can focus on onboarding users for your product. BOS enables you to fork code and utilize the scalability and cheap cost to transact that NEAR offers. This is fairly new and quite hard to define for non-technical audiences - but the more use cases and integrations we see to the BOS, the more obvious things will become. Don’t listen to a non-technical noob like me try and explain it, hear it from the man himself @ilblackdragon on a talk delivered at ETH Seoul earlier this year: piped.video/watch?v=LErnf6rv… Now, what on earth is NDC? The NDC is a collective of NEAR OGs, Founders and enthusiasts, tasked with the sole mission of decentralizing @NEARProtocol. As you can imagine, to deliver true decentralized governance of this scale, there are a number of verticals to consider: Transparency, on-chain voting and election processes, along with preventative measures to avoid botting. Since the launch, @neardc have been tasked with building a suite of products that will facilitate just this. We have now created on-chain polling, elections and voting - powered by NEAR’s #BOS. A look at NDC's tech: In the realm of on-chain elections, where the power to shape the future rests solely in the hands of our verified core community, gone are the days of opaque processes and hidden agendas; transparency and accountability is now possible using NEAR’s BOS. The entire lifecycle of nominations and elections is securely stored forever on the blockchain. Every candidate can step forward, be heard, and provide nomination details, all recorded immutably on-chain to ensure complete integrity. Nomination screen: Elections screen: You'll have to forgive me for the blur, elon's Twitter is hurting the picture quality! I-AM-HUMAN SBT In order to verify genuine users and prevent botting, I-AM-HUMAN provides proof of personhood via Soul-Bound Tokens (SBTs) that are minted to your wallet once you have completed KYC and a face verification process. The appetite for a community voice has been proven as the IAH campaign has seen the community surge to more than 2,000 members since launching on June 1st! Once elections come around, users will be REQUIRED to hold this SBT in order to vote. Not yet a member? Join the fast-growing community and mint your SBT today: i-am-human.app/?community=th… Closing words I encourage you ALL to pursue this, test it and be a part of history. If successful, this can create the blueprint for how governance can happen not just in Web3, but imagine government elections happening on-chain! I would apologise for the lengthy content, but people just need to see what I see, all in one place. I'm hoping this can shed light on exactly what's going on over at NEAR that simply isn't being done elsewhere. Even if you're not a frequent NEAR user, you absolutely HAVE to respect the fact that they have continuously stuck to the core ethos of Web3.

Ni hao fine shyt

From sleeping on the floors of WeWorks to standing on the rooftop of BULK HQ Life is gud

Not looking good brev Can we stop posting about ICM and start increasing chain activity pls?

I hate it here

To protect the community, we lowered the price to a fair level

The perpetuals landscape is being dominated by centralised products masquerading as a DEX Our ecosystem MUST have a truly censorship resistant exchange with the required performance to handle NASDAQ level throughput The problem is clear and the solution is near Bet on BULK

You know you have a solid community on $NEAR when the price melts and there's nothing but good vibes on the timeline. Excited to be building here 😎

No one really cares how it works. They just care that it does. Have something to show and tell people why its needed.

Are we just going to pretend this is acceptable? This may lose me some friends but if you're an influential name on NEAR and endorsing this shite, idk what to tell you...

I am taking a vow of celibacy I don’t want CEX anymore

You traded in a low-liquidity market on a public ledger, on an unregulated platform that has not opened-sourced its infrastructure. There's an element of accountability that needs to be taken here...

We live in a time where people care more about the direction of the chart than actively contributing to improving them I don’t care if we are up, down or sideways… I will not rest until we reshape the global financial system

What is possible seems to get put into a box based solely on what works today We had a vision that was shunned, even laughed at by some in the early days Now we are not only proving it works, but it is working better than expected BULK coded

With the wider market in a downturn, I bid strength @ore looking gud here - have staked 🫡
