I believe everyone is aware of the extent to which Solana Blinks has gained popularity, with some projects starting to rise tenfold and reaching hundreds of times. For example, SEND IT has seen a peak increase of hundreds of times, outperforming many major meme coins!
We still have confidence in the Blinks narrative and are positioning ourselves for the next hundredfold opportunity with Blinks. This article will explain why and how to do it.
0 1. Why do we continue to be optimistic about the Blinks narrative?
Official Support from Solana
Firstly, Solana's official team and founder @aeyakovenko have repeatedly promoted Blinks on Twitter, holding many AMAs, indicating that Solana is focusing on developing Blinks as a key direction.
It’s worth mentioning that with Blinks, the price of $SOL has gained new possibilities, just like Telegram has for $TON.
Similarly, the emergence of $SEND from Blinks is akin to how Warpcast incubated $DEGEN. Based on these points, Blinks actually has a lot of narrative space to explore.
Potential for Mass Adoption
Secondly, Blinks significantly lowers the barrier for on-chain operations, showcasing strong potential for Web3 Mass Adoption.
To briefly explain, the main function of Blinks is that it can convert any on-chain operation into a shareable link, which can be embedded in any social media or website, such as Twitter.
In other words, if you see an NFT with a Blink link on Twitter, you can mint, pay, and more directly through the link.
The same goes for tokens; if you click the link on your phone to purchase/swap, it will automatically redirect to the Phantom wallet for payment, taking no more than 10 seconds.
Interactions, purchases, minting NFTs, selling NFTs, etc., are all greatly simplified, providing a seamless service!
This is also why Blinks is referred to as a one-click tool for boosting meme coins on Twitter. It shares similarities with the popular @farcaster_xyz.
However, Blinks has a broader application, such as integrating with Chrome extensions, allowing for one-click donations, voting, minting, and payments directly on Twitter/websites/other social media, enabling more people to use Solana anywhere.
Seamlessly enabling on-chain operations in web2 scenarios (like X, Discord, etc.) is a powerful driver for bringing millions into Web3. Just think about why the TON ecosystem, backed by 900 million users, has gained such popularity!
In other words, this is where Blinks possesses the potential for Web3 Mass Adoption.

Monitoring Information Sources
Here are a few Twitter information sources to monitor (use monitoring bots or add notifications):
@solana: Solana's official Twitter, frequently posting about Blinks, is the strongest endorsement.
@aeyakovenko: Founder of Solana, promoting Blinks.
@saydialect: Another partner of Blinks launched in collaboration with Solana.
@thesendcoin: The first NFT project on Blinks that skyrocketed.
@blinkdotfun: Launching meme coins, sortable by market cap and other categories.
https://t.co/mxQCQcHKze: NFT website, monitoring projects related to SOL/Blinks.
How to judge reliability and whether to invest?
1. Popularity on social media
Check the number of followers on social media, including whether there are many KOLs and project parties following. Look at post views and whether they are artificially inflated. Investigate the project's Twitter account for all collaborations.
2. Information release from the project team
Mainly assess whether the team understands marketing, such as whether the project concept is catchy, how frequently updates are made, and if there are new narratives to attract new users. Continuous marketing on the official Twitter is very important; check what previous posts have been published or referenced, and see if there is a more comprehensive introduction to the project, along with the interaction atmosphere in the comments.
3. Team background
If the official mentions the team, find the LinkedIn profiles of team members, analyzing the experience and previous cases of each mentioned employee, including whether they have previously rugged projects.
4. Whitepaper (if available)
If there is an official website and a whitepaper can be found, study what the project aims to build and whether it has any novel advantages conceptually.
How to trade?
When you see a Blinks project link on your mobile device, simply click it to jump to Phantom or other wallets for authorization and complete the transaction.
For example, Send was initially launched on Twitter; this is a tweet from Send's official account, even explaining how to trade NFTs through Blinks.

If you are on a computer, you need to enable the switch for recognizing Blinks in the extension: open the Phantom extension, find Experimental Features in settings, and enable actions on X. After that, you can directly trade when you see Blinks project links on Twitter!
0 3. Conclusion
Since Blinks is still in its early and niche stage, its ecosystem is not yet mature, and there are few tools available, making it difficult to capture alpha projects immediately using tools.
After finding information, you still need to make your own judgments; the more you look, the faster and more accurately you can judge later. You can quickly assess the feasibility of a project, somewhat like the learning process of investing in meme coins.
I hope everyone can find their own hundredfold opportunity.
Risk Warning: The above projects are for informational sharing only and do not constitute investment advice. Anyone can create collections on Blinks, so the market is quite mixed, and it is impossible to predict whether future supported plugins will face issues like hacking. Please trade cautiously!
