Meme Coins Were the Test Run | Nick Ducoff from the Solana Foundation

"People used to ask me a year or two ago, 'Nick, do you think meme coins are holding Solana back with respect to institutional adoption?'

I say, 'no, the opposite.'

We were proving out the network at true financial scale that Solana is capable of handling financial markets.

And I think that's what we've seen the evolution of is that meme coins were actually just an early use case for the technology that's now being used to drive the adoption of tokenized equities."
