Notes from the show

After the USDC depeg, and return to peg, James and Nick talk high level about how USDC works. And a bit about some US financial systems.


The James talks about TinyDancer, the Grizzlython hackathon submission of a Solana lite client, and what it could mean for the broader Solana ecosystem.

Nick makes a case for how Elusiv is a game change protocol for Solana and blockchain in general. Allowing people to have private on-chain transactions, while still enabling tracking of bad actors and illicit funds.

What does it actually take to build a meaningful project in the fast-moving world of Solana? On the Solfate Podcast, hosts Nick and James pull back the curtain on the process, moving beyond hype to explore the real work happening on-chain. As developers actively building in the ecosystem themselves, they bring a practitioner's perspective to every conversation. Each episode features an in-depth interview with a founder or core builder, delving into the technical hurdles, strategic decisions, and personal journeys that define their work. You'll hear firsthand accounts of architecting protocols, designing tokenomics, navigating community growth, and solving the unique challenges presented by high-performance blockchain technology. The discussions are grounded, detailed, and focused on the mechanics of creation, offering listeners a genuine look at the innovation shaping Solana's future. This isn't about surface-level commentary; it's a series of deep dives for anyone curious about the people and code behind the projects. Tune in for candid insights you won't find anywhere else, straight from the developers on the front lines.
