Fast blockchains can generate eye-popping activity figures, and not all of it means much economically. Solana’s count is elevated, sure, but the critical issue is whether the wallets behind those numbers are…

He described the first quarter of 2026 as a “punch in the face,” citing declines in Farcaster, Zora, and creator coins. Data from Zora shows why: trading and creation activity are down almost entirely. Zora Data Reveals the Scale of the Decline In a long reflection, Pollak said builders drove real adoption through stablecoins, prediction markets, and perpetuals. Social, he conceded, did not. “In fact,…
