Reminder that @Backpack is the most developer friendly @solana wallet. The only one supporting, devnet, localnet, and any custom RPC url for your programming needs. Turn on developer mode in settings, and give it a shot.
I really wish there was an easy way to create and redeem USDT. Circle makes it really easy to manage USDC liquidity across networks, but Tether doesn’t really provide anything as far as I’m aware.
- l2 for the market with a centralized sequencer - on top of a fast l1 like solana (you MUST have fast block production otherwise you have serious risk issues for closing positions and dealing with liquidations as markets move) - keep centralized custodian (too many compliance benefits from being a qualified custodian to not do that and it’s no different than usdc anyway) - all assets traded on exchange are minted from the custodian as wrapped assets onto solana for deposits and withdrawals to/from the l2
Performant CLOBs are a commodity. Making it fast is the easiest part. The magic of Hyperliquid is not in the tech, it's in the name. Liquidity. If you don't have Chameleon, and you don't have HLP, you need something else to bootstrap.
Every cycle you see the same thing. New narratives. New people. New lemmings chasing the latest thing. If prices are up or if prices are down, have your vision. Build it.
