The article discusses the recent "Solana Boston" conference and highlights the efforts to attract students from top universities, particularly MIT, to the crypto industry. The conference was a more modest affair compared to previous events and included talks by speakers such as John Deaton, a lawyer challenging Elizabeth Warren for her senate seat. The article suggests that the presence of founders creating Solana-native apps indicates a shift towards usable applications and broader adoption in the crypto industry.
