Austin Federa, director of strategy at the Solana Foundation, explained on the podcast how Solana's builders persevered during Deep Bear, continuing to improve the project's technology.

He noted: "I think you saw a lot of 'thinkinfluencers' tweeting 18 months ago that Solana's architecture was somehow fundamentally flawed and that they could never make it because of 'original sin' in the codebase. Let it settle — in line with most of the most radical claims on Twitter, which is Platform X. But it turns out that’s not actually the case.” (The Block)
