Multichain dApps/wallets/etc. give end users a side-by-side comparison. Don’t shame, encourage the gravitational pull.
The Market decides over time as users gravitate towards networks that have the best performance & thus downstream UX.
That’s how crypto gets to 1 billion DAUs.

Super excited for the coming months - can’t wait for @ethereum users to realize the power of @solana through the beauty and simplicity of @phantom
Spoiler alert: they are already beginning to.

Good news: has the fastest-growing dev ecosystem in crypto.
Bad news: The report only tracks open-source data. My guesstimate is that 70% of Solana projects are closed-source.
This is a legit concern & we are working to remedy that situation w/ the eco.

Mad respect for Vitalik.
If you think Solana is taking a beating rn, you weren’t around in 2013-16 when he was defending his thoughts on what became the Ethereum of today
Never lost his cool & was consistently positive. Some things never change
Crypto is lucky to have Vitalik.

Hard for me to tell from outside, but I hope the community gets its fair chance to thrive
