Joined March 2020
I’ve joined @SolanaFndn as Chief Strategy Officer. What excites me is Solana’s position to bring Internet Capital Markets to life: connecting assets, trading and payments on one global network, open to anyone, around the clock. You can already see it happening: $200M in tokenised equities traded in a single day, with roughly 63% outside US market hours. My focus is helping drive the next phase of growth, bringing more institutions, enterprises, builders and users into that opportunity. Thank you to @calilyliu and the team for the warm welcome. Excited to get going. 💜 coindesk.com/business/2026/0…

Capital moves globally, 24/7. The infrastructure should keep up. 150ms finality brings Solana closer to that ambition: less waiting, faster settlement, more room for builders to rethink how money moves. Huge milestone from the @anza_xyz team 💜👏
Alpenglow is live on mainnet-beta ⛰️ 🎉 Solana’s new consensus protocol: finality reduced from 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds, built by Anza. Why this is important 🧵

Shanghai, you treated us well. Productive meetings, memorable experiences and a chance to take in the city’s culture. Incredible food, a little Chinese medicine and time to get to know my talented new co-workers. The haka from my colleague and fellow rugby lover @harkl_ deserves a post of its own 🤣
Solana convenes allocators and builders online through Internet capital markets. We do the same offline, most recently through a series of capital forums - in the last month alone, Silicon Valley, Singapore, and Shanghai.

Inspiring start to the morning aboard OceanXplorer, watching @RayDalio honour the legendary Dr Sylvia Earle with a lifetime achievement award. Through @DalioDotOrg and @oceanx , Ray is helping advance ocean exploration, science and conservation. Our oceans cover 70% of the planet, yet so much remains unexplored. So important to protect what we’re only beginning to understand.

1 billion smartphones next.... This is what mainstream adoption looks like. Blockchain embedded into the technology billions already use. The Token Supercycle is just getting started.

Solana isn’t just chasing payments - it’s coming for capital markets. Its Delivery versus Payment (DvP) model enables assets and payments to settle simultaneously, with finality in seconds. The Token Supercycle in practice!
Solana And JP Morgan Take Aim at Faster Institutional Settlement The Solana (@solana) Foundation has launched an open source settlement tool designed for institutional financial markets. Solana DvP uses standardized APIs to let institutions exchange assets and payments simultaneously. J.P. Morgan provided input on institutional settlement practices during the tool’s design. The foundation says transactions can reach finality in seconds rather than traditional settlement periods. The launch comes as BlackRock and Kraken expand tokenized financial products on Solana.

Not 10. Not 100. 10,000 - the whole market onchain. Real ownership, brokerage and DeFi finally starting to speak the same language. That’s when it gets really interesting
Armani Ferrante, CEO of Backpack, on what comes next for tokenized stocks. "Not 10 stocks, not 100 stocks. We want to bring the entire stock market to Solana. One API where a real share, by any definition of the term, moves back and forth between your brokerage account and DeFi. Going from 200 symbols to 10,000 is the next leap." @armaniferrante @Backpack

One of the reasons I'm so excited about the future of crypto in the UAE 🇦🇪 is the focus on making it simple and accessible.

After 3+ years, I’m stepping away from Binance in June to focus on some personal priorities. From 150M users to 317M+ users and growing . It's been an incredible ride. Grateful to the inspirational @heyibinance , @_RichardTeng and my amazing team for trusting me to to play a small role in building one of the world’s most ambitious brands. But none of it happens without the most incredible community in crypto. I’ve been lucky to meet so many of you across markets all over the world. You challenged us, supported us, celebrated with us, and helped shape what Binance became. Proud to be a forever Binancian. Tired but very grateful. Taking time to reset before what’s next 💛
