Notes from the show

HadeSwap acquired Solana Monkey Business. marginfi started collecting funds for their new on chain lending protocol, and a SolDev redesign? Crazy week.

James and Nick discuss the upcoming SolDev redesign that Nick will be coding the frontend for. James gives his thoughts on the Solana Course he wrote, including Solana Pay and how powerful it is! James updates Nick on how Solana Pay works and it blows his mind!!!!

Nick also just had his last day at his previous job, and is gearing up for his next role….what could it be?

If anyone is interested in getting early access to the new marginfi lending protocol, you can message Mac Brennan on twitter for details.
