FYI to anyone who uses @coinbase and lives in the US, every year they file a W9 to the IRS. I just checked mine on the app and the estimated gains was large. Come to find out that they start adding up all transfers in and out, so if you don't specifically go into the coinbase app, provide details for each of those transactions , you'll probably get a large tax obligation filed in that W9 and have a nightmare to deal with later. It was really easy to add details to each tx. If its just simple transfer in, you just select the default option "transferring to myself". Just by adding the info to each transfer transaction it reduced the estimated w9 reporting by 99%. To be clear this isn't an actual issue with Coinbase. They track the best they can and its up to you to provide accurate info so they can report properly.

If you're a web2 developer who is web3 curious (with js experience), here is my recommended quick learning path for Solana dApp development. 1. solana.com/news/getting-s… 2. learn.figment.io/pathways/solan… 3. dev.to/dabit3/the-com… It will evolve, but a great starting point.

Can I say something without everyone getting sad? The timing of this could not have turned out any crazier, but its very fitting considering “we won forever” and have come full circle since I joined this ecosystem full time. After nearly four years at Solana Labs → Solana Foundation, I'm stepping down from my post. Not because anything's wrong – quite the opposite. Sometimes you just know when you've played your part in the story. Let me explain. @DanPaul000 has these sayings that he has repeated since I started working here about serving our "tour of duty" and “working ourselves out a of job.” To some, it sounds strange but I always loved the idea of it. You show up, you build what needs built, support who needs support and then – if you're honest with yourself – you recognize when your job is done and it's time to move on to the next chapter. Its easier for some roles than for others at Solana Foundation, and of course working for a foundation is much different than those of you that are founders, to which there really isn’t any equivalence there. Looking back to 2021, we had 75 developers (real) – those locked in homies and degens that would do anything to make this chain succeed. And they actually fucking did it. Today, there are thousands of developers, with over a thousand teams competing in our global hackathons twice a year building REAL businesses. But numbers don't tell the real story. What matters is how the energy has shifted. The questions I get now aren't "How do we build this or get involved?" but rather proclamations of "We’re going to build the shit out of everything and you can’t stop us!" The ecosystem isn't looking for permission anymore. It's just fucking building. That's the thing about true momentum – it makes the original catalysts obsolete, such as ecosystem servants like myself. My strength was always in the chaos of early stages, identifying that hungry talent and giving them the support and push they needed, and in finding signal in the noise. Now the signal is deafening. The communities and individuals we helped spark early on are doing things I couldn't have even imagined, and better yet, they're doing it without needing guidance from above. That's not just growth – that's evolution. I've been thinking a lot about the idea of both network states, blockchain cities and alternative work lifestyles. A genuine reimagining of how we build communities and work together. But I'm not rushing into anything quite yet with regards to work. I'm moving from Costa Rica to Bali, letting the dust settle, and listening. Sometimes the best moves come from the quiet moments. To @rajgokal and @DanPaul000 – thanks for seeing something worth betting on in that persistent internet guy flooding your DMs. You didn't just give me a job; you gave me a front-row seat to a revolution. And you’ve inspired a generation of new builders and founders along the way. To everyone building in this ecosystem – you never needed permission, you just needed an opportunity and little bit of moral support. Watching you all succeed, and seeing this community flourish on its own merits has been the best part of this whole journey. I'm taking some time now. Real time. The kind where you put your phone down and remember what your family looks like without a screen in between 24/7. I’ve been terminally online, working full time in crypto for 7 straight years now and I need a real break. Don't worry though – my crippling Twitter addiction isn't going anywhere. Some habits are too good to break. This isn't an ending, it's just me recognizing that the best thing I can do for myself is to recharge and spend time with my family, and wait for inspiration to strike. I have every intention of directing that reclaimed energy and inspiration right back into this ecosystem in a totally reimagined capacity. But until then, I’m rejoining the community as just another degenerate participant, making memes and watching this ecosystem thrive. I’ll be around here for awhile finalizing some remaining work, and shitposting my heart out until the end of the year, but mostly winding down. And lastly, a message to all the most OG of Solana OGs out there, some lore that I’ve been hiding for years and the time finally feels right. I’m sure you remember everyones favorite (or least favorite) unhinged solana maxi @thesolmane from the 2020/2021 era when there were only a few of you here. There were lots of conspiracy theories of his account deactivation and disappearance. Many thought he retired from crypto and moved to a tropical island. That’s partially true, he actually moved to Costa Rica but rather than retire he shut down the account and joined solana as their very first dev rel =) What a fucking gift this has all been. THANK YOU! gn

Lost a lot of respect for @base leadership over the last week. Very unserious people. Reminds me of Polygon.

Hearing rumors that @solana devs aren’t going anywhere.

Apparently @coinbase is up to their old tricks again. 40 cents to perform a solana tx that actually costs less than a penny?

Do it. startonsolana.com

Tag the person or group in the @solana ecosystem that inspires you to continue to push harder every day. Could be a builder, an artist, a project or community member. There are many amazing voices to choose from.
