In a survey conducted by Lightspeed, Solana founders shared their thoughts on various ecosystems, VCs, and startups in the crypto industry. Some founders expressed that if it weren't for Solana, they wouldn't be involved in crypto at all. Others believed it was unfair to choose a single ecosystem and expressed indifference towards the question. There were also mixed opinions on the existence and influence of a Solana cabal, with some acknowledging a network of personal relationships formed during the early days, while others denied its existence. The need for more blockspace and the opinions on certain sectors like SocialFi, DeSci, and gaming were also discussed. Notably, founders weren't particularly impressed by pump.fun but found memecoins beneficial for the ecosystem. Additionally, Base and Sui were seen as the most appealing competitors to Solana. This survey provided valuable insights into the beliefs of Solana founders.
