Without solid accumulation in a bear market, there can be no explosive growth in a bull market!

┈➤ First, let me ask a question
At the end of 2022 to early 2023, did anyone ever bottom-fish SOL?
Brother Bee bought SOL at $30~20, but then SOL kept falling to $10. So he didn't hold long, just broke even and sold.
Originally just wanted to watch SOL, but was led by emotions in judgment; the underlying logic was not researched deeply enough.
I firmly support Solana, and others do as well:
One is V God, who once wrote: "…Speculators have been washed out, only then does Solana have a bright future…".
As the founder of Ethereum, V God supporting his biggest competitor Solana shows he truly believes in it.
Second is deBridge, which insists on developing a cross-chain ecosystem centered on Solana.
┈➤ Two cases of solid accumulation leading to explosive growth
╰✦ Solid accumulation
The Solana ecosystem continued building during the bear market.
deBridge also had a relatively high code submission frequency from December 2022 to February 2023.
( Of course, in 2026, deBridge’s code submission frequency will be even higher, in an environment dominated by AI, developing AI products—the deBridge MCP Server.
)
╰✦ Explosive growth
The Solana ecosystem experienced a boom in 2024~2025. Not only MEME, but also PayFi products like Huma and others.
deBridge also persisted with rational judgment during the bear market. From 2024 to 2026, under the explosive environment of the Solana ecosystem, deBridge achieved a prosperous period of returns.
Of course, these are Brother Bee’s personal observations; in contrast, @AlexSmirnov’s article doesn’t emphasize deBridge much, it’s more of a retrospective.
┈➤ Projects, KOLs, and individuals also need "solid accumulation"
Alex’s article is not limited to retrospection; after the review:
First, taking Hyperliquid as an example, he talks about the key point of product development—user experience.
Second, he summarizes the difficulty of Web3 applications—complex processes.
Finally, he proposes key technologies to solve these difficulties: user intent-oriented design, gas abstraction, and cross-chain routing.
This is essentially a design and outlook for the development direction of deBridge.
Alex’s series of content actually provides everyone with a framework for "solid accumulation."
As traders, we also need such a process in the bear market:
Review → Find key points → Identify problems → Develop solutions → Take action
If you don’t work hard in the bear market, you’ll regret it in the bull market!
