@KayZizzle @orca_so 🥲🥲♥️ Will have more to say when I see you in person, but after what we've been through, you're closer to a sister than a friend to me. Thank you for everything. I'm so excited for your next adventure!

Switching from Chrome to Arc (@arcinternet) has been the biggest incremental improvement to my Internetting experience in awhile. Things I like: - videos/video calls automatically switch to mini-players when you switch tabs - side nav = more vertical real estate + organization, so you can have endless tabs without feeling like you have endless tabs - ChatGPT built into the URL bar - single swipe between work and personal (and other) profiles - it’s cute ...plus lots of other small UX niceties! Switching to a side nav was definitely an adjustment, but now that I’ve gone to the dark side, I don't think I can go back. Sometimes it's the little things... arc.net

@jnwng @arcinternet when I originally shared this with Orca folks, it may have included the line "long live side navs"

Recently, I've been spending more of my time mentoring other designers to help them learn the unique nuances of designing for DeFi. I never thought of myself as a natural mentor, but it's been a much easier and more rewarding shift than I imagined. Having a single clear vision for the design of the product is still important, but shaping that vision into a real, usable, and beloved product is a team effort—and way more fun that way, too.

Arguments floating around Twitter surrounding markouts mischaracterize how CLAMM's actually work CLOB maxis misunderstand who the actual users of CLAMM's are. Arguments using markout implicitly assume that liquidity providers are essentially passive and are blindly hoping to make money by throwing it into the pool. We've seen from the data that this assumption was never true. Liquidity providers can be profitable, even on competitive pools like SOL/USDC, and even accounting for divergence loss CLOB maxis have also accused Orca of hiding divergence loss. We've always made the risks of divergence loss clear in our UI. Furthermore, in the Liquidity Terminal, Orca makes the relationship between yield and divergence loss explicit. From both our own calculations, and speaking directly with liquidity providers, we've found that active liquidity providers who understand the markets are making profits on Orca, often consistently The twitter algo rewards shit-stirrers. You can listen to them, and miss out on the fun. Or you can try the Liquidity Terminal, and compete to earn some of Orca's fees. Which, btw, is the majority of fees generated across Solana DEX's

@GreekTragedyETH It's still accessible at v1.orca.so! It was a hard lesson learned, but I agree that v2 is for a different audience, and many existing DeFi users prefer the existing familiar interface. But I'd love to ask: In what case would you use the v1 UI vs. an aggregator?

@nicolejialiu Not small! The punchy names (Liquidity Terminal, Yieldfinder) wouldn't have happened without you. Grateful for your contributions :)

Building is about more than product—just as important is building trust among the many diverse contributors to a protocol. Proud of Orca's growth/ops/marketing champ @KayZizzle for sharing her POV on the @SolanaConf dev stage. Thank you for bringing empathy to this space!

It's not perfect—in fact, it's a raw, hot-off-the-press MVP—but it's the result of months of research, design, and code, and I'm excited to finally share it with you.
