Why Solana’s DATs Are the Surprise Market Movers We’ve All Been Waiting For! 😂💰

In a world of flickering screens and ceaseless numbers, where fortunes are wrought from ether and bitcoin, an astute mind in the realm of digital gold-Nom, a stalwart contributor to Bonk’s tapestry-proclaims a bold revelation. Behold, a new breed of Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) is dawning upon us, poised to lift the modest Solana (SOL) skyward, far quicker than its heftier kin, Ethereum (ETH). The reason? A trifecta of Solana’s petite market cap, a populace of staked tokens that refuse to waltz into the market limelight, and the audacity of treasury chests to grasp undervalued or bound tokens before they even dare glance at the free market. Talk about getting ahead of the curve! 📈

Why Solana DATs Could Move Price 10x Faster Than ETH

According to our sage, “There exists a gush of efficiency in SOL DATs that allows them to amass the trading supply-yes, the elusive creature not to be confused with mere circulating supply-far superior to the heft of ETH or BTC.” With a flourish, he notes, “The recent announcement of a whopping $2.5 billion in SOL DATs ought to ring like a triumphant bell: imagine it as a $30 billion uplift for ETH or an astonishing $91 billion for BTC!” Who wouldn’t want that kind of windfall? 😂

Yet, like any prudent storyteller, Nom trades caution for proclamation. “Inflation, dear friends, is a beast best left unchained and unleashed, hence I shall steer clear of that treacherous path,” he remarks, tossing in his own shrouded interests: “Indeed, I am a proud holder of SOL in all its forms-staked, unsullied, and locked in a vault! Because if my tokens remain stagnant, then my aspirations are sure to plunge!” 🎭

As whispers of the FTX bankruptcy still linger in the corners of our minds like shadows at twilight, Nom insists that these risks are dissipating, albeit slowly. “Back in the days of turmoil, the FTX estate held a staggering 41 million SOL tokens … sold to the lucky ones at Galaxy and Pantera at prices that now gleam like fairy dust against Solana’s current price of about $190.” Oh, the sweet smell of irony! 😏

Moving along the path of numbers, Nom sketches a picture of impending fortunes, “The remnants of ‘Estate SOL’ sum up to about 5 million units still hidden away, a tantalizing billion-dollar figure,” he estimates. Comparatively, from the optimistic souls at 4shpool, a treasure of 21 million SOL awaits liberation by the year 2028, worth about $4 billion at today’s value. Who said life doesn’t come with its share of surprises? 😜

At the heart of this grand design lies the eternal clash of flow against float. Nom elaborates, “The daily harm of issuance, coupled with near-term unlocks, creates the kind of sell pressure that wouldn’t budge even for a price-agnostic buyer.” The crux boils down to how much SOL graces the market each day-and how eager the buyers are to seize their opportunity.

“When you shower people with free tokens (thanks to staking inflation and those delightful unlocks) or offer them for a cheeky discount (like FTX SOL), one can be sure a good portion will part with their newfound treasures,” he quips. “Considering 100% of this annual 37.5 million SOL in inflation will likely disappear like cotton candy at a fair, the demand must soar high: approximately $7.5 billion in yearly inflows or about $20.5 million daily.” Will anyone answer the call? The suspense is thick! 😱

The Differences Between SOL And ETH

Nom champions the prowess of DATs as they maneuver more adroitly outside the bustling bazaars. “If those DATs can scoop up SOL while basking in the warmth of discounts from the estate or seized locked areas, they’d indeed excel at adjusting the market flows,” he posits with a glint in his eye.

To pour humor on this equation, he illustrates, “Raising $400 million for a 5% discount on SOL equates to a glorious $420 million in effective inflows! Is there a magician in the house?” 🪄 He further nudges his perspective by asserting that the looming specter of issuance overshadows the supply tableau: “Our inflation in the coming trifecta of years will outpace unlocks and FTX SOL represents but a sliver in the wider pie!”

Nom passionately explains the startling difference between “trading supply” and the glossy headlines of “circulating supply.” “Mark my words, the circulating supply does not equal what’s actually available for purchase, particularly when staked.” With a grin, he notes, “Solana is sitting pretty, with a staggering 63.1% likelihood of its 608 million SOL tokens staked, putting a real crimp in anyone’s buying spree!” 🛒

Still, he grins at the valuation consequences. “With Solana perched at a far more modest valuation than ETH or BTC, a single dollar slotted into a SOL DAT is like tossing five bucks into the ETH pot or a whopping twenty-two into BTC!” The audacity! That’s a math lesson anyone could appreciate. 💸

Including the wild potential of ETFs and their corporate kin, Nom remarks, “SSK is doing its part, but it requires a tenfold increase in inflows to satiate its hunger. With further ETF approvals on the horizon, just think of the delightful flywheel effect DATs might conjure!” A clarion call for leadership echoes through Nom’s narrative, as he frankly states, “SOL DATs are starved for a charismatic champion; a Michael Saylor or a Tom Lee could transform this tale!”

In summation, “Now, less than 1% of SOL is nestled under the watchful gaze of DAT management. That should shift closer to 3% shortly and then 5% with planned future gear-ups.” He adds with a sparkle, “At last, current ETF inflows are but a mere morsel, yet the seventh sky of larger vehicles is soon to emerge, which keeps us all on this electrifying rollercoaster ride!” 🎢

Solana Treasury Boom In The Making

Amid these fiery proclamations, a ripe harvest of new vessels is sprouting forth. Fresh from the ether’s womb, Galaxy Digital, Multicoin Capital, and Jump Crypto are locking horns to amass about $1 billion to forge a publicly listed Solana treasury firm, led by the ever-reliable Cantor Fitzgerald. In splendid parallel, Pantera Capital contemplates conjuring up to $1.25 billion to transform a Nasdaq-listed entity into “Solana Co.,” a dedicated treasury for the daring! Talk about ambitious ventures! 🚀

So, what’s the takeaway from all this raucous chatter? Together, these enterprises sketch a dreamy blueprint for at least $2.5 to $3 billion of institutional interest heading straight toward SOL’s doorstep. The scene is set for chaos, kismet, and-if we’re lucky-a touch of good fortune!

As the curtain falls, one finds SOL trading at a griping $204. Will it shatter ceilings, or merely tickle at the walls? Only time will tell! 🎭
