Does anyone still remember how people socialized before Facebook appeared in 2004?
According to unscientific statistics: there are about 7 billion people on the earth, the probability of two people meeting is 0.00487, and the probability of knowing each other is only 3 in a billion. This means that 20 years ago, we had almost no chance to know a person in a different geographical location without a third party. However, the launch of Facebook connected people from all regions into a network through the Internet, and social networks were born.
People used to be able to socialize only through letters and face-to-face communication, but now they can get to know strangers on the other side of the ocean by just tapping on the screen, which greatly shortens the distance between people. As a result, Facebook has become a dazzling star in the revolutionary Internet wave in the late 20th century and early 21st century.

The Sol chain has been booming in the past week, and the price of Jupiter's token $JUP in the secondary market has almost doubled in the past two weeks, following the pace of Solana.

The research on Jupiter and $JUP in the market is more from a secondary perspective. Behind the outstanding (or temporarily outstanding) market value performance, in addition to excellent dog farms and communities, it is also inseparable from the support of its excellent product design. So today, let’s take a look at Jupiter’s product design ideas from a product perspective.

During the last bull market, DeFi was widely regarded as one of the most disruptive innovations in blockchain technology. However, great concepts often face many challenges. Due to imperfect technology or structural flaws in the design of the economic model, many projects eventually fall into a death spiral and eventually fail to return to zero.

At a time when Meme and Dogecoins are rampant, how can Defi regain its former glory? Syncus may be a potential solution.
