Kyle Samani Is Back: This Time, We're Outperforming CEX in Efficiency!

Kyle Samani, former co-founder of Multicoin Capital, has returned to advocate for PropAMM, a breakthrough in market microstructure innovation on Solana. He argues that PropAMM could surpass traditional centralized exchanges (CEXs) in efficiency by hosting market maker algorithms directly on the blockchain, eliminating latency from bidirectional communication between exchanges and market makers. In CEXs, market makers co-locate servers and constantly exchange data with the exchange, leading to delays. In contrast, PropAMM runs algorithms on the same physical hardware as the Solana blockchain, allowing price updates to occur almost instantaneously within the same silicon chip. This reduces latency significantly compared to traditional systems. Currently, PropAMM already offers narrower spreads for SOL-USDC spot trading than major CEXs. Samani expects it to dominate on-chain trading this year, including spots, perpetuals, and prediction markets. Challenges remain in ensuring best execution for takers due to private algorithms and non-deterministic routing, but solutions from aggregators like Jupiter and dFlow are anticipated. Upcoming Solana upgrades—such as higher compute limits, reduced slot times, and lower network latency—will further enhance PropAMM performance, solidifying its advantage over CEXs.

Kyle Samani Is Back: This Time, We're Going to Outcompete CEX in Efficiency!

Kyle Samani, former co-founder of Multicoin Capital, has returned to advocate for PropAMM, a Solana-based innovation he claims is one of the most significant advancements in market microstructure in decades. He argues that by hosting market maker algorithms directly on-chain, PropAMM eliminates the latency inherent in traditional centralized exchanges (CEXs), where constant data exchange between market makers and the exchange server is required. On Solana, pricing updates occur within the same physical silicon, drastically reducing delays. PropAMM already dominates SOL-USDC spot trading on Solana with tighter spreads than major CEXs. Samani predicts it will become the dominant model for on-chain spot, perpetuals, and prediction markets this year.

Solana Spot ETFs Achieve Major Benchmark Following Months Of Their Debut

Despite a bearish crypto market, Solana Spot ETFs have achieved a major milestone, amassing nearly $1 billion in inflows since their October 2025 debut. This represents 2% of SOL's market cap in just 18 weeks—a rate significantly faster than Bitcoin ETFs. The growth highlights strong institutional demand and Solana's increasing integration into traditional finance. Additionally, Solana has become a hub for on-chain activity, processing a record $650 billion in stablecoin volume in February 2026, underscoring its role as a leading network for digital asset liquidity and capital movement.

Solana Overtakes Ethereum In Trillion-Dollar Sector, Is There A New King In Town?

Solana has surpassed Ethereum in the number of real-world asset (RWA) holders, with 157,112 compared to Ethereum's 153,592. However, Ethereum maintains a significant lead in total RWA value at $15.4 billion, excluding stablecoins, while Solana's RWA value is $1.8 billion. Additionally, Solana recorded higher stablecoin transaction volume in February at $660.64 billion, exceeding Ethereum's $548.82 billion. Despite this, Ethereum has a larger stablecoin market cap and more stablecoin holders. Both networks are growing in RWA holders, but Solana shows faster growth in stablecoin transfer volume and holders.

Crypto Barbarians: The Jupiter System Still Owes the Market an Answer

The article "Encryption Barbarians: The Jupiter System Still Owes the Market an Answer" investigates the controversies surrounding the Jupiter ecosystem, particularly its affiliated projects Meteora and the founders Meow and Ben Chow, originally from the Mercurial Finance project backed by Alameda Research and FTX. After FTX's collapse, the team split into Jupiter (focused on liquidity aggregation) and Meteora (focused on dynamic market making), creating a vertically integrated ecosystem that controls everything from fiat on-ramps (via Moonshot acquisition) to trading and liquidity. This closed-loop system, while efficient, has been repeatedly accused of exploiting information asymmetry. Key controversies include: - Suspicious MET token airdrop distribution in October 2025, where a few wallets received disproportionately large allocations and showed patterns of coordinated dumping. - Suspected insider trading ahead of MET's listing on Upbit in November 2025. - The LIBRA token scandal in February 2025, where Meteora was accused of supporting a token that crashed after reaching a $4.6B market cap, causing $280M in losses. Ben Chow resigned and appointed law firm Fenwick & West (already under scrutiny for its work with FTX) for an independent investigation, which further damaged trust. While on-chain detective ZachXBT's recent report cleared Meteora in the Axiom Exchange insider trading case, the ecosystem remains under a cloud of suspicion over its centralized control, lack of transparency, and repeated patterns of operating in regulatory gray areas. The article concludes that the market is still waiting for real accountability from the Jupiter system.

Solana ETFs Attract $540 Million From Wall Street In Q4: Data

US spot Solana ETFs attracted over $540 million from major Wall Street institutions in Q4 2024, with half of all assets owned by large investors, signaling strong institutional demand. The top buyers included Electric Capital, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley. Despite a more than 30% price drop in SOL from $124.95 to $86.50 during the period, net inflows remained steady, reaching over $950 million cumulatively. Analysts note the high institutional ownership suggests a focus on long-term positioning rather than short-term trading. Updated data on institutional response to the price decline will be available in mid-May.

BONK: Will rising whale interest help the memecoin rise 22%?

Popular Solana-based memecoin Bonk (BONK) is showing signs of a potential bullish breakout, with a 4.5% price increase and a 19% rise in trading volume. The top 100 wallet addresses and whales have been accumulating BONK, increasing their holdings by 0.63% and 6.07% respectively over the past week, indicating strong interest from large investors. A bullish falling wedge pattern has formed on the daily chart, and a breakout above $0.0000061 could lead to a 22% price surge to $0.00000745. However, the ADX indicator suggests a weak trend, and failure to break out may result in sideways movement. Key liquidation levels are identified at $0.0000055 and $0.00000626, with long positions currently dominating the market.

Solana ETF inflows hit 2% of SOL’s market cap, beating Bitcoin’s record

U.S. Spot Solana ETFs have reached nearly $1 billion in inflows, representing 2% of SOL's market cap, in just 18 weeks since their October debut. This milestone was achieved faster than Bitcoin ETFs, which took 55 weeks to reach the same level. Despite the bear market, institutional demand for SOL remains strong, with 50% of assets under control by institutions. Unlike Bitcoin ETFs, Solana ETFs show limited basis trade activity, suggesting inflows are driven by conviction rather than speculation. ETF flows now account for 25% of SOL's price variance. Recent outflows coincided with a price drop, though SOL recovered partially. The Choppiness Index indicates a potential breakout, with key levels at $100 or $78 depending on market direction and ETF flow trends.
