Solana and Ethereum will both thrive in the tokenization race and neither blockchain will push the other out of the space, says Dragonfly general partner Rob Hadick. “They are both Facebook,” Hadick told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Wednesday, when asked which blockchain will gain market dominance like social media platform Facebook or fall behind like the once-popular MySpace. Hadick said that with growing interest in tokenization and increasing economic activity onchain, there’s room for multiple blockchains to coexist.  Read more

Bubblemaps says 23 wallets tied to the Ava deployer sniped 40% of the AVA supply at launch. The Solana AI token later fell 96% from its peak. Blockchain analytics firm Bubblemaps said a cluster of 23 wallets linked to the deployer of the Solana-based AI token Ava accumulated around 40% of the token’s supply at launch, raising new questions about insider coordination around the project’s debut. The sybil wallet cluster related to the deployer shared similar patterns, including being funded in a tight time window through Bitget and Binance, receiving similar amounts of Solana (SOL) and having no blockchain activity before buying up the Ava AI (AVA) token supply at launch, Bubblemaps claimed in a Thursday X post. “Connected to these snipers are other wallets that also bought $AVA early. Similar funding sources, sizes, and timing strongly suggest coordination across these clusters,” they said. Read more

Solana has partnered with a security company to test quantum-resistant technology on a Solana testnet, claiming to offer a scalable end-to-end solution. The Solana Foundation announced a partnership with Project Eleven, a post-quantum crypto security company, to prepare Solana for the rise of quantum computing. According to a Tuesday announcement, Project Eleven led a full quantum computing threat assessment on Solana and prototyped a functioning Solana testnet using post-quantum digital signatures. The announcement claimed that its testnet implementation showed “end-to-end quantum-resistant transactions are practical and scalable.” This is a notable claim, given that post-quantum cryptography is expected to be more computationally expensive than traditional alternatives. Solana had not responded to Cointelegraph’s request for comment by publication, including to questions about which post-quantum encryption standard the testnet in question uses. Read more
