Yaoyao, Solana's Head of Growth for Asia Pacific, posted on the X platform that before joining Solana, she attended a Starknet event in 2023 and attempted to discuss expansion plans for the Asia Pacific region with the team. During a conversation with a Starknet executive, the executive was arrogant and described Yaoyao's inquiries about her reasons for joining the company and how she did so as extremely rude. Yaoyao stated that at the time, she was working at Bybit and was also interviewing with Solana, and this experience ultimately led her to join Solana. Yaoyao also emphasized that ecosystems are defined by people, and without standing with the community, there will be no support.
