🌟Solana's Shadow - DePIN Game-Changer? Worth It?🔥

[@RichardFrancis]

James that picture showed a self reported supply, isn't that a concern that the numbers could be wrong? Short of that it makes complete sense.

[@InvestAnswers]

The reason the circulating supply is labeled as self reported is bc of the emissions from the SSC smart contract and the fact that CMC/CG track those via an API. So the "self reporting" is bc they are relying on what the smart contract shows as the total amount of remaining SHDW still gated behind SSC NFTs

[@RichardFrancis]

@@InvestAnswers cheers 🥂 will be looking at that later, great analysis as always James.

[@rw-js5zo]

@@InvestAnswers you also left out that the team burned 30m SHDW because they deemed the tokenomics stable. That leaves about 12m unclaimed in SSC NFT distribution (about 7.5%). So the total supply is 169m with about 157m in circulation. This project is so undervalued it's comical, just like SOL in general. NFA

[@emmanuelattias6491]

James after buying a chunk load of Sol at $8 and holding until now, If you say to buy Shiba, I say TAKE MY MONEY! 🤣 THANK YOU! You are changing lives!

Hi James, just wanted to say thank you for what you do. Your tools have been like strapping rocket boosters to my portfolio.

[@InvestAnswers]

great to hear - mission is to change lives - thank you for sharing. 🙌

[@tom-lk]

Thanks Sherlock James as always 🕵‍♂ 1. Arweave is getting more expensive, SHDW is way cheaper/faster (better entry for smaller projects) 2. SOL's Eco explosion/growth - Projects/builders in SOL Eco would pick SHDW for seamless adoption 3. Backed by the supporters (no VC pump-dump), funded through NFT and unique IDO, and hasn't been listed on big exchanges (for Investment)

[@InvestAnswers]

BINGO SIR

[@TotalRageAtl]

You are forcing me to learn and get outside of my comfort zone! Using Solflare and learning to swap and take advantage of what's coming when the price is in the PENNIES vs learning about it once it in the $.25 quarters or $1. This channel is exciting and allowing me to feel confident that my family won't be left behind in the 5-7 years!!! thanks to James and the Team

[@BSFarm97]

You can swap directly inside of the phantom wallet. Just send some SOL to your wallet and swap. It does Pyth, radium and shadow

[@BSFarm97]

Bonk too

[@Papolucho702]

Sometimes phantom pricing is a bit off and don’t they add their own fee too? Musing Jupiter, only sol is charged for the fees

[@BSFarm97]

@@Papolucho702 it’s like 1 to .5%

[@an80sguy_]

Thanks Brian, didn’t realize you could swap all the Sol tokens inside wallet, good stuff

[@g0venat0r]

Phantom uses jupiter on the backend and adds a small fee. It's worth it though if you are new and not comfortable navigating the solana ecosystem yet,

[@petergordeev347]

Hi James, thx for your work! One note: the $SHDW IDO was in late 2021, I took part in it. It was very successful, they released at the price much higher than expected. But then we all went severely down due to the broad bear market conditions

[@stratocastermangold]

Yeah, definitely James, thank you so.much for keeping us up to speed on EVERYTHING! ❤

[@InvestAnswers]

My pleasure!!

[@rmwarthen3715]

[@dans_pool]

I have expressed valid concerns about James and Solana this year; no one can produce a flawless analysis. However, it is undeniable that Solana has generated significant hype and is poised to be a key player in the upcoming bull run. In light of this, I value analyses of new tokens on the Solana blockchain.

[@InvestAnswers]

very fair

[@patrickshanghai2064]

hi James, always wonderful to see your approach. we are getting used to the new you. the one buying meme coins. haha. as long as they are Solana memes. welcome to our degen world! on this one, you could have said it's a Solana ecosystem token so it's good. but is it really? it's a hard business to compete with Filecoin and Arweave. and with AWS! you assume it's faster and then you conclude it's faster. not convinced. be careful there is going to be hundreds more of these so called "better, faster, cheaper" tokens. ride the wave but don't fall in love with them. most will go nowhere in the long run. really learning a lot from your analysis. both the method and the psychology.

[@AlvinFan1976]

As one the OG holders since I bought the nft, I am blown away by how smart this team is. It’s the only token I held straight through bear cuz I sleep well at night knowing Frank has his head down building.

[@floxy4491]

Unfortunately, I don't understand why communication between Holder is so severely restricted. Is there a group which allows communication? I don't have 10k Shdw or their NFT (Discord rules)😅

[@Stranden]

I would love for you to take a look at the RWA-narrative that might have some strength this cycle. I see people throw it around a lot. Real World Assets being onchained might be a big market, maybe?

It’s minimum 200 years on Arweave, and you keep staying better than Arweave, how come Solana Mobile went with Arweave? It’s not because one is better than the other it’s because they are different and not a good comparison. AR is targeting archiving long term, a true machine so to speak.
