If you're about to comment "SOLANA ISN'T DECENTRALIZED..." listen to this part at 9:22... "Solana actually went down in December 2020 for around 6 hours, this is a little scary". Yes, I mentioned this, and yes, this video was posted a day before their mainnet went down on September 14 lol

Thanks for featuring Coach Victoria Rochelle in one of your videos! I followed your advice, invested with her, and the results have been amazing. Started with under $25K, paid off my $209K loan in just 8 months, and now I’m debt free with two fully paid rentals. Huge thanks to Coach Victoria Rochelle!

Wow, this breakdown of Solana blew my mind! Never realized how much tech is packed into it, especially the whole 'Proof of History' concept. But with it being so fast and cheap, why hasn’t it completely taken over Ethereum yet? What’s the catch? Anyone here actually invested in Solana—success stories or regrets?

As a very new developer, I really appreciate how simply you've broken everything down; It makes your content very accessible to the newbies. Good stuff.

Two years down the line and Solana is doing fairly well. Compared to bitcoin, which Is better to start with for somebody who wants to get into crypto for not so long term gains?

50% of Solana's tokens are owned by VC's, insiders, and other related parties. It's one of the most centralized tokens in the space. Highly prone to manipulation, and achieves it's speed via centralization as well.

SOL is really worthy of your attention. I have been buying this asset on bitfinex for about a year now and am still in profit .

What whiteboard animated software are you using?

[ChillGuyG]

I understand way more about economic and financial stuff from this guy compared to when I was in school. They don't teach you about crypto, tokenomics, chart analysis, statistics, historical performance review all that stuff. I literally learned how to handle and manage my money from YouTube.

Solana still holds a top 5 place in my portfolio I love it it’s been through hell and back this year it’s fast and a lot of coins are supported on its blockchain even if I didn’t hold any I’d be sending my Usdc from coinbase to binance or kucoin with it then cashing out love it or hate it Solana is very useful while it has many problems the only other candidate I see as better for its specific use case is polygon and well… it’s above sol in my portfolio I hope they fix they’re outages not many people realize the sell pressure it went under during the collapse of ftx alameda sold hard and it withheld that institutional sell pressure I wish it had a burn mechanism or a max supply those are the things that irk me quite a bit and of course the obvious outages I still believe there is a bullish case for Solana though but maybe a risky play
