It's aur.us Aurus aggregates all the providers like jup, titan, Dflow, pumpswap and charges only 0.001 SOL flat fee per swap. you can also directly liquid stake, native stake, lend, borrow, manage your LP positions, and more directly from your wallet. you can also type in natural language to create limit orders or DCA orders. It's a no brainer tbh

I can't vouch for Mint Craft specifically, so I would judge any minting site on the token it produces rather than its landing page. Before you launch, check three things on-chain: whether the mint authority is revoked (so no more supply can be minted), whether the freeze authority is revoked, and how much of the supply the creator wallet keeps. Verify those on Solscan or Solana Explorer rather than trusting the site's own UI. Also use a fresh wallet with only a small amount of SOL for minting, and never connect your main wallet or approve unlimited spending. If a site won't let you revoke those authorities, or it asks for permissions that don't match what minting needs, that is the answer about its reliability.

I first heard of Bitcoin circa 2011. In 2012, it became important again for reasons I don't remember, and I remember how funny it would be to mine a block "to make history" and also "just in case" it did end up working. Keep in mind at this point, even the idea of bitcoin hitting a dollar was absurd. You'd get laughed at. So I pretty much did precisely that, used my laptop (yes, really) and promptly mined 50 bitcoin. I of course promptly lost not the laptop, but the wallet it was mined to itself. Ironically enough, the laptop still works! I mean, it's an mid-2000s laptop, so it can't do much anymore, but it still sorta work, when connected to the battery, windows XP and all. I spent the better part of a month trying to find the wallet, literally buying programs to scan the free memory on my hard drive, to no real avail. I did end up investing in bitcoin a couple of times, with a mitigated success. I lost 80% of my savings when bitcoin collapsed from $1k to $200 and trust me, no one, and I mean NO ONE thought bitcoin would even touch $1,000 again. I lost 75% when it crashed from 60k to 15k and in fact, I ended up selling at 15. I remember this one clearly, because I was genuinely on the verge of homelessness (being kicked out for rent nonpayment). But the one that hurt me the most was when bitcoin crashed from 20k to 3k. I had bought 16 bitcoins at around 5k (some of it borrowed money), was at one point up 300%, then ended up taking a 20% loss because I was afraid of not even being able to repay my loan. We all know how that turned out. I had at some point been pretty active on this subreddit, before finally deleting my account when reddit banned 3rd party apps from accessing its data (I will quite possibly delete this account soon as well). Some of you might even remember me from a while ago, discussing various bitcoin risks and where the crypto was going. So today I put my entire savings - $140,000 USD, saved painfully from years of a job as a high school teacher, ignore my username please - into bitcoin. I was elated to be able to buy TWO whole bitcoin at once, however I do not expect bitcoin to recover or soar anywhere near in the future. Here, let me explain \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ **1) Binance hack messed it up for a lot of people** People here don't want to hear it, but for 99% of people, when they hear a bank or an exchange is hacked, fear will take over. Suddenly they think their savings/money can be stolen. Binance is supposed to be the golden standard, the top tier crypto center, and in many ways, it is, at least for the average people. To read that a massive, multi-billion "hack" was done (people hear that word alone and panic) is an utter disaster for the average person. "But the money is insured and it's chump change for binance and and..." yes, yes all of that is true, but the average person won't care. They hear "money hacked" and they lose interest. And to be fair, they aren't totally wrong. Sure, crypto is "safe" and "insured" until it isn't. Many exchanges just vanished, often with the funds of their users. Binance was supposed to be different, and this reminded us that it really isn't. Who's to say another FTX scandal isn't coming and people won't lose everything? If people invest in bitcoins at all, they will invest in ETFs. But those ETF keep their funds, well, you get the idea. Also, there are plenty of ETFs, many are safer, bigger and better managed, and trading stuff they already know. The average person has no idea how bitcoin works or even what a blockchain is or what it's used for. I remember I lost thousands investing in a crypto that was used by some warehouse company (won't say it, no promotion). Then one day the warehouse stopped using it and poof, gone. So no, the average person is never going to invest in bitcoin. At this point, it just won't happen, period. Which leads me to my next point: **2) The idea of an "exchange" makes no sense in the first place** The general idea of bitcoin is, or at least was, to be your own bank. You manage when you send your funds, you, using a secret signature. Everyone can see your balance, they can even add to it, but no one can take those funds unless you agree. No tell you what to do. 2020 in particular showed us that banks can and will freeze and maybe even seize your funds. People would donate to the truckers convoy in canada (think what you want of the convoy, it's not important) and see their bank accounts limited, frozen, or even closed. You people might remember content creators being deplatformed or banned from the banking system altogether. And it's not just "evil anti-vacinners" or "evil right-wingers". Remember wikileaks? With that in mind, storing your bitcoin in an exchange is incredibly stupid, in my opinion. They can limit or steal your funds at any time. You don't really have any recourse, unless you consider spending years embroded in a legal battle that you'll probably lose "a recourse." Anti-money laundering laws and KYC laws and other garbage laws make sure that if you become a problem, your crypto will be taken. Some people have seen their cryptos taken for no reasons at all. Simply associating with the wrong person is reasons enough to seize your funds for years and years. Heck, even sometimes, your funds will be taken, locked, for no reasons at all. Try to withdraw too many at once? Account locked, pending verifications, give us your last 3 tax returns and sources of income, also get ready for a full audit either way. Someone sketchy sending you funds? Your entire life will be investigated from A to Z. The idea of bitcoin at least was to be your own bank. Be allowed to trade and interact with other worldwide without any 3rd party. I don't see what the interest of exchanges was. For most people, it is to convert bitcoin to cash. But that was not the prime purpose of bitcoin. Say I want to hire someone in a far away country for instance; sending money to him can be complicated. Paypal locks accounts, impose limits, and often close accounts with no warnings. Moneygram are costly, slow, and rely on a third party. With bitcoin, you can send money directly. Say what you want about bitcoin cash (I hate it), they at least got that idea right. I remember one time when sending $100 of bitcoin would cost you $125 in fees, it's a complete joke. I remember when it would take DAYS for your transaction to go through, and you'd have to add to your fees, edit your transactions, etc etc etc. **3) The whole stock market is propped by fake money anyway** No one really believes Space X is worth trillions of dollars. No one really thinks Claude AI has a real, 1.5T valuation. No one believes AI is valued appropriately. It's all fake money being pumped out by the government. Look at the US debt; what most people forget is that this money goes somewhere, and mostly, it goes to boost the GDP. The most commonly studied factor is the debt to GDP ratio; if your debt goes up, but your GDP goes up even more, then that ratio falls. Right now, the US is at 120%, not even close to the top it reached in 2030 of 130%. This is because although the debt has exploded, the GDP has grown even more. The US debt has grown 10T in 5 years alone, where do you think the money is going? And we're not even talking Canada, Europe, or even Asia. This is why (or at least one of the reasons) everything cost so much now. I'll stop here because I'm words-limited and I want to get on bitcoin, but you get the idea. No, AMD is not worth 36 times its revenues. No, MSFT is not worth 4T. NVDA just lost 2T in a month pretty much based on pretty much nothing, do you really think this makes any sense? \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ **WITH THAT IN MIND, WHY DID I JUST PUT EVERYTHING I HAVE INTO BITCOIN** Bitcoin is down roughly 48% from its peak. This is nothing new and nothing unusual, because bitcoin is an insanely easy-to-manipulate crypto. This goes both ways: up (when short sellers get squeezed, or liquidity drains out, no one wants to sell on an uptrend) and down (margin calls, panic sales, etc.). Cyclically, this is perfectly normal, and bitcoin tends to recover 250-1000% after this. This is my first time touching bitcoins in over two years (I bought an ETF if you must know), and this is why). Do you think I don't feel stupid selling my 16 bitcoin at 4k? Or my 20 bitcoin at 200$? Or even my 5 b itcoin at $15k? I remember perfectly that every single time, people said it was over. For those of you who have been there for a while, we never, and I mean it, we never, ever, ever thought bitcoin would reach 1k, 5k, 25k, 50k or even 100k. Not even in my wildest dreams, when I had my 16 bitcoins, did I ever consider even the possibly it would reach 100k and that I would have 1.6M usd. **4) Miners** My target for bitcoin is $345,000 in late 2029. Here is why. Cyclically, halvenings don't have much impact on bitcoin, at least short-term. The real peak starts in september the year of the halvening. This brings us to september 2028 as the "start" of the next "cycle." Don't expect bitcoin to do miracles until then. We'll be lucky if it breaks 100k by then, if at all. But once it does, and I believe it will, it will become unstoppable based on a few elements. First, the miners. Miners need to sell a large portion of their bitcoin just to finance their operations. Every single miner I've met (and yes, I've met many) wants to expand their businesses, absolutely none of them goes "I have X Eh/s, let us stop there." They ALL reinvest part of their mining into more equipment. They also need to pay electricity, maintenance, operation costs, etc. Most miners keep very little of their bitcoins. I'd say the average is 10-20% tops. So what happens when block rewards are cut by half, especially such a sizeable amount? Well they basically need to sell more bitcoins. if the price doesn't move and they need X, and now they get half the reward, they need to sell more. It's that simple. But buyers of bitcoins (who are often very different from miners, I've never mined for instance) think differently. Most of them either add a fixed amount every X, or want to add a given amount of bitcoins. But with far fewer bitcoins coming onto the market, what can they do? Well, same amount of buyers for far fewer bitcoins. It takes some time for the miners to adjust; just because the reward is cut by half doesn't mean they will immediately adjust, but over time, this creates a downward pressure on bitcoin selling. Fewer bitcoins hit the market. All things considered, supply is down, demande is up. Simple enough. **5) Inflation** I will never quite understand why people are fine with inflation at all. The bank of canada is trying to convince me inflation in 2026 so far was 2.6%. Prices go up at the grocery store by more than 2.6% literally every time I go. Last time I checked, a pound of butter was 9.49$, and I am too scared to look now. There are many reasons for that of course (one being that billionaires love to squeeze us, and government does nothing), but one of them is money printing. When you print trillions and hand it around, it increases the supply of money. Same amount of production + more people wanting to buy your production = higher prices. That's it. And the government loves it because higher prices = more sales tax. More sales tax = they can waste more money, and then use that as a reason to print even more money. This creates an unbearable inflation that frankly makes no sense, and dramatically changes society. A McDo trio is $21 here with taxes, who is really going to buy this? This junk? My local dinner still charges $15 for a far better hamburger. Deodarant is $14 at the pharmacy, who is going to buy that? Another one is 3 for $12 at Costco, you get the idea. This goes with bitcoin as well. $100k bitcoin might have sounded crazy a few years ago, but today, it's basically nothing. Everyone earns 100k a year now. I was a high school teacher, and now they earn 100k easily. Police, nurses, construction, everyone with a career seems to make $100k a year now. You can go work as a data entry analyst and you'll make 100k pretty fast, somehow. So the same idea of a 100k bitcoin is not as alluring. I want to be clear: when bitcoin first hit 100k, it was still a ton of money. 100k was a premium car, today, it doesn't even get you a tesla. 100k could still buy you a house in some part of Quebec, now you barely buy a mobile home for this price. This is my main reason to invest in bitcoin, and anyone who knows bitcoin knows why: fixed supply. People don't like to hear it, but when the block rewards goes to below 1BTC in 2032, it will be basically impossible to acquire new bitcoins. You will have to acquire from someone with bitcoin, and those people are not selling easily. I might sell mine at 345k, but that's just hoping for another -50% cycle. **6) Market manipulation & altcoins** When it comes to crypto, you have to understand nothing is done by accident. EVERY single headline or "news" you read is made to manipulate and rob you. I know that far better than most, I sold my bitcoins at 15k. Imagine if I hadn't. And bitcoin wasn't a new, random, risky thing when I sold neither. It was well-established and working. Like it or not, it takes far less money to manipulate bitcoin prices than you think. There are no real regulation and even if there were, those people don't do their jobs anyway. A group of person can easily spearhead a campaign and crash a crypto 20% like it's nothing. It's a game to those people: make people panic and hit their stop losses, let the crypto collapses, buy it, pump it, rinse and repeat. Almost everything you read on cryptos is fake. The fear, the fake "bitcoin is going to 1M," it's all fake and designed to manipulate people. Look at the number of "altcoins" for instance. Look at how many were in the op 25 five years or ten year ago vs today. It's all fake. The market cap is fake, the volume is fake, the news on the cryptos are fake, the "trends" or "about to soar" are fake, nothing is real, everything is manipulated to get you to sell or buy at the worst time. People here liked to say "buy every month and hold" and they are right. Had I done that ten, fiteen years ago, I would probably hundreds of bitcoins by now. Now I have 2 And speaking of altcoins, 99% are worthless. Ever heard of Avalanche coin? Apparently, it's worth billions now. Sui, Bittensor, Cronos? Me neither, but they're worth billions of dollars as well. 99% of those projects won't exist 5 years from now. They have no real goal or purpose and if one of them actually does, understand you have almost no chance to pick the "right" one anyway. **7) So, bitcoin target price?** A lot of people are panicking right now because bitcoin is down... 5% from its recent levels. 5%. Understand that the price is fake anyway. With leverage, a few important players can play with the price like they want, at least short term. I firmly believe most exchanges don't have as much bitcoins as they pretend they do. Oh, I do believe their public wallets and all, but I believe they allow far more bitcoins to be purchased than the amount they really have. If everyone tried to withdraw their bitcoins at once from a secondary exchange, that secondary exchange just wouldn't be able to do it, because they simply don't have them. People are allowed to trade on a 10x leverage; deposit 10M (chump change for rich people) and now you got 100M of bitcoins to manipulate the price. And this is why when bitcoin will soar, and it will soar, those people are in trouble. For instance, nobody, and I mean nobody thinks bitcoin can reach 200k within a month, right? If it ever reaches that amount, it will be over a year, maybe two? Yeah, not really. If those people are caught with their pants down, as they were many times in the past, they are simply SOL. Look at Gamestop and what a few people did; Robinhood had to ban people from buying a stock! I never quite got how they got away with that. Bitcoin is a phenomenal asset to own. I thought I got it when I first bought it, I thought I got it when I bought it a few years ago, and even now, I think I get it, but Satoshi was a real genius. He planned for things I couldn't even imagine. The halving for instance is much stronger than people like to pretend it is. And the demand for bitcoin is not going to go down. It's one of the very few assets that is genuinely fighting inflation. The US government, the EU government, everyone will keep printing and printing and printing (remember we only know what they tell us). There is no stopping it at this point. We could discuss in long and large what happens when interest rates go up, or the GDP goes down to a bad year, or when France isn't able to renew its debt, but for now, I will say this: you have nothing to fear, long-term, holding bitcoin. I think the new bitcoin rip will shock people by how fast and how violent it is. I am not selling my bitcoin at 150k, 200k, 250k. So if not one is selling and short sellers are forced to cover, and if my theory is right and exchanges don't have the bitcoins, what do you think happens? Many years ago, when bitcoin was at 10k, I remember reading someone posting that "bitcoin could go up and down 10k a day." An average market move. I didn't believe it then, but now, it seems like a certainty. I am genuinely convinced in my lifetime, bitcoin will trade in the millions. It's a rare, proved, working asset. So, why not wait to buy? Because I am not good enough to time anything. I have bought a bit over 2 bitcoin today and won't look until 2029. Might make another post then. For your information, 100% of my savings is in BTC. Take care and as always, this isn't financial advice, trade at your own risk and do your own due diligence.

I'd rather show the whole record than a highlight.

I was in for years, sold my cardano and moved it to SOL

If you don't strictly need USDT, SOL to USDC on Solana usually gets a tighter quote since there's way more liquidity there. And for a bigger amount check the price impact line on Jupiter before you confirm, splitting it up can help.

BTC at $69,499 is down 4.1% over 24 hours, while ETH is off 2.2% and SOL is nearly flat at +0.2%, so BTC is leading this leg lower. With Fear & Greed at 20 and perp funding roughly flat, much of the leveraged excess may already be cleared; from here, spot demand may matter more than another funding-driven squeeze. I’d watch whether buyers absorb supply rather than assume extreme fear alone marks a bottom.

A quick way to tell "no edge" apart from "the asset collapsed", which are different problems with different fixes. Multiply your trade count by size by round-trip cost. If your observed loss is roughly that number, gross PnL is about zero and there is no edge to find — you are just paying fees. If your loss is much larger than that number, the assets fell after entry and no amount of parameter tuning fixes it. In my case round-trip cost explained 4.9% of an 85 SOL loss. The other 95% was price collapse. That distinction saved me from rewriting a backtester that was working correctly.

Yeah, they're definitely correlated. I'm not treating BTC, ETH, SOL and XRP as four independent markets. One reason I trade multiple coins is liquidity. As capital grows, relying on just one market can become a problem. Trading across several liquid markets gives the system more room to scale. Of course, it still looks at risk across the whole portfolio, including positions that are already open. And just to be clear, these are real live trades, not backtests.

Since when? At best you get a credit if there's an SLA in your contract or else you're SOL but you already know that if you're an MS customer

SOL is a centralized shitcoin.

Why not just start a standard SPL token and just sell those? Also what exposure are you looking for? SOL? USDC? Gold? Stocks? Like in my experience Meteora is the best place to launch

That is super solid advice, thank you. Funny enough, right after my second entry on SOL, the price immediately dipped a couple of dollars against me, so I'm literally experiencing that exact test of patience and support behavior right now lol. Sticking to just SOL/USDT for now and keeping a simple log of my entries and fees without forcing trades. Really appreciate the perspective!

Pumps creator fee decays as the shitcoin succeeds. 0.30% on the curve, 0.95% only in the \~420-1,470 SOL band, dropping down 0.05% above \~98k SOL. At an $8M coin you're 1/6 of curve rate which is backwards when staking and airdrops are funded by those fees. Holder Rewards mode is close to your model with zero contract work but inherits the decay. And a 0.45% platform fee on the app so 1.7% for anyone buying there. LaunchLab's has flat 0.5% to the creator at every cap. Different category. StonkFun is the clean version with half the 1% forwarded automatically, no claiming, and it already ships holder rewards and airdrops. Skip their launch fee by building the `initialize` yourself. Float standard sends you 0.0375%... Use builder type instead (50% to your fee wallet, 15% to airdrops, fixed forever). If you have a following already and know they'll jump in, go Stonk. If you have no following then Pump's way is all that'll save you lol. Either way... Fee recipient to a treasury wallet and verify the claim path on chain first, and happy rugging. 😂

It was destined, everyone said this in the XMR community. Let it have its moment, then slow dwindle back like SOL, XRP, ETH etc... all coins that pump will dump over a 2 year period at least....

Mostly it's a BTC drawdown dragging everything with it. BTC is around $71.6k (CoinGecko, 3:12 PM ET), down about 3.8% on the day, 14% over 30 days and roughly 43% under the Oct 2025 high of $126k. ETH (-20% over 30 days) and SOL (-24%) are falling harder, which is normal when risk appetite drains: BTC dominance is near 59.5%, so money is hiding in the biggest coin rather than rotating into alts, and Fear & Greed sits at 28. How long is the honest unknown. The thing I'd watch is whether alts stop underperforming BTC on red days; until that happens, bounces tend to get sold, so I'd size positions assuming another leg down is possible.

I recently started learning the basics of trading and decided to practice with real money using a very small micro-account ($7 USDT) on Spot trading just to understand market mechanics, order books, and emotional discipline without risking significant capital. So far, I have been practicing basic range trading on high-volume pairs (like SOL/USDT), buying near support levels and setting limit sell orders for small, consistent percentage gains (around 1% to 1.5% per trade) to slowly compound the balance while learning.

This has nothing to do with SOL and everything to do with DFDV who issues the preferred shares CHAD. You need to research at least a minimum amount before you invest or defend anything. I expect DFDV to go bankrupt, which means CHAD also ceases to exist.

Probably not done, but the numbers don't scream bargain either. Per CoinGecko as of this morning, SOL is around $81, down about 24% over 30 days and roughly 72% below its January 2025 high near $293. Over the same 30 days BTC is down about 13% and ETH about 20%, so SOL is falling harder, which is pretty normal for a higher-beta coin in a risk-off stretch. On its own that's not a Solana-specific collapse signal. It's still around #7 by market cap with about $2B of daily volume, so the liquidity hasn't gone anywhere. What I'd want to see before calling a bottom is the relative weakness fading: SOL holding up on days when BTC dips instead of dropping nearly twice as much. If you do buy a couple, size it like it could fall another 30 to 40% from here, because in past drawdowns it has.

Since you'd check this anyway: as of about 8:25 AM ET, ETH perps are around 2,012 after a 1,986 low in the last 24h, and SOL is around 81.5 after an 80.5 low. Funding on both is still slightly positive on the two big perp venues I checked (roughly +0.004% to +0.005% per 8h on ETH, +0.001% to +0.002% on SOL), so shorts aren't crowded yet and longs are still the ones paying. For a failed-bounce short that cuts two ways. There isn't much squeeze fuel built up right now, which helps you. But if funding flips clearly negative while price stops making new lows, that's usually when the short side gets crowded and bounces stop failing. I'd treat those 24h lows as first reaction zones rather than targets, and size it so getting stopped on the reclaim costs a small fixed amount. Not advice, just how I'd frame it.
