According to Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of Solana, the blockchain ecosystem needs “20 additional unicorns so ambitious that Solana can’t contain them.”
‘Solana Unicorns,’ a subject Yakovenko tweeted about
The two biggest NFT projects on Solana are departing for Ethereum and Polygon, which has generated a lot of discussion in the blockchain world and prompted a statement from Solana Co-Founder Anatoly Yakovenko.
Some Solana supporters have been harshly critical of the developers’ choices to create links between their Non-Fungible Token (NFT) projects and other chains, despite attempts to minimize the importance of the DeGods and y00ts projects to the Solana ecosystem.
The success of well-known Solana projects like DeGods, Phantom, and Magic Eden, as well as their subsequent efforts to expand their operations to other blockchains, left Yakovenko with “bittersweet” feelings, on the other hand.
.@solana unicorns like @MagicEden @phantom @DeGodsNFT are going multichain. It’s bittersweet to watch. It would be awesome for them to 100% focus on @solana. But reality is that these projects want to conquer the world. But so does the @solana community!

He added, “Fwiw, I don’t think the breakout hit will come from a multi chain strategy.” he continued.
Leave this field empty if you're human:There's something about Polygon paying millions of dollars to Solana unicorns that feels a little more like poaching than natural growth and progression.
