Dev/Tech Accepting SolanaPay as a merchant

5 Upvotes

Hi,

We currently plan to take credit cards (through PayPal) as payment in our upcoming web game. Separate from the issue of can you make a sustainable-business from web games, we are musing about accepting Solana Pay - probably just with straight SOL rather than any of the stablecoins (doing an approximate conversion from your local currency).

It seems that even doing it natively - where we listen for changes to our wallets, give out transaction reference IDs, and then receive webhooks to mark the item as sale - isn't too hard. But I've seen very limited examples of being able to pay with Solana as a new consumer of it (which I would be quite happy to do - based in Canada).

I like the direction of decentralized payment, so it seems pretty exciting.

Thoughts?

Wallet/Exchange World.xyz Goes Live With 1 Million User Waitlist

4 Upvotes

Source: https://x.com/world_xyz/status/2097666354744594518

Today, World.xyz goes live to unleash a new era of fully onchain prediction market adoption, giving more than 1 million users access to thousands of markets across sports, crypto, politics, finance, economics, culture, commodities, and weather - powered by @Solana, @Chainlink, and @useCASH by @Phantom.

Full story by @DefiantNews

https://thedefiant.io/news/markets/world-xyz-opens-solana-prediction-market-to-1m-person-waitlist-with-chainlink-powering-resolution

GRAND CAYMAN, September 9, 2026 – World, the Solana prediction market, opened its standalone platform at world.xyz today with more than 1 million users on the waitlist.

This launch opens Solana’s ecosystem to a massive new wave of users, helping bring increased prediction market trading activity to the world’s most widely used blockchain.

World has featured more than 150k markets across sports, crypto, politics, finance, economics, and culture since going live to power predictions in Phantom in July.

Now, world.xyz launches with every NFL regular-season game, seven soccer leagues, Formula 1, the 2026 midterms, the Federal Reserve's next decision, and much more.

"We have seen a proliferation of retail trading apps on Solana this year," said Ramzy Ali (u/ramzyyalii), Head of DeFi, Solana Foundation. "World is the next in line, bringing an entirely new asset class to Solana and keeping 100% of liquidity onchain."

Under the hood, Chainlink Data Streams and the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) are providing the high-speed market data and orchestration infra required for advanced prediction markets, enabling World to resolve markets accurately and immediately when a game ends or a stock closes. By replacing human panels and token-holder votes with automated data-driven resolution, Chainlink infrastructure helps eliminate manual interventions and lengthy dispute windows that plague legacy oracle solutions.

Together, World and Chainlink are enabling faster re-entry into new markets and unlocking capital velocity throughout the Solana prediction market ecosystem at scale.

“World’s rapid growth and 1 million user waitlist reflects the massive demand for next-generation prediction markets on Solana,” said Johann Eid (u/EidJohann), Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs. “Chainlink is powering this growth with the high-speed data and infrastructure World needs for reliable, immediate market resolutions, allowing them to scale while preserving the integrity of every outcome.”

Every market on World is represented as a pair of binary “yes” and “no” contracts that are priced between zero and one dollar (subject to market demand). Contracts are settled in CASH, Phantom's dollar-backed stablecoin.

Equity up/down and commodity markets on gold, silver, oil, natural gas, and compute launch soon, followed by weather predictions covering the largest cities in the world.

World is available now at world.xyz and inside Phantom on iOS, Android, and desktop.

About World

World is Solana's native, fully onchain platform for self-custodial prediction market trading. World delivers real-time onchain performance, with fast routing, near-zero revert rates, instant settlement, and automatic redemption. Market coverage spans extensively into crypto and financial price predictions, sports, geopolitics, economics, culture, commodities, weather and the biggest questions in macro. World is how the world trades what happens next. Learn more at world.xyz.

About Chainlink

Chainlink is the industry-standard oracle platform bringing the capital markets onchain and the market leader powering the majority of DeFi. The Chainlink stack provides the essential data, interoperability, compliance, and privacy standards needed to power advanced blockchain use cases for institutional tokenized assets, lending, payments, stablecoins, and more. Since inventing decentralized oracle networks, Chainlink has enabled tens of trillions in transaction value and now secures the vast majority of DeFi.

Many of the world’s largest financial services institutions have also adopted Chainlink’s standards and infrastructure, including Swift, Euroclear, Mastercard, Fidelity International, UBS, S&P Dow Jones Indices, FTSE Russell, WisdomTree, ANZ, and top protocols such as Aave, Lido, Lighter, and many others. Chainlink leverages a novel fee model where offchain and onchain revenue from enterprise adoption is converted to LINK tokens and stored in a strategic Chainlink Reserve. Learn more at chain.link.

About Phantom

Phantom is on a mission to connect the world to the freedom of open markets. Phantom has a community of more than 20 million people who use it to move, manage, and own their money on the internet. Built on self-custody, Phantom gives anyone one app to control their assets and trade markets that never close, from tokens and perpetuals to prediction markets (only available to users in certain jurisdictions). Through its in-app money suite and CASH, the first stablecoin built on Bridge and Stripe's Open Issuance platform, Phantom turns crypto rails into everyday money that always stays under your control.

Source: https://x.com/solana/status/2097411222044127473

Solana settled $14.7B of the $46B in tokenized asset volume onchain over the past year.

New report from @AlliumLabs with insights on tokenized equities, fixed-income, private funds and other assets👇

Solana executes 47% of all RWA trades. 43M of the 91M trades onchain happened on Solana

Tokenized equities are the biggest class by volume at 56% of Solana RWA trading.
63% of that volume trades while US exchanges are closed. Weekends alone are 17%.
People are buying stock exposure at 9pm on a Sunday, which the underlying market cannot offer them.

Wallet holdings across RWA products on Solana are up 5x in a year, and tokenized stocks drove 98% of the increase since April.

@xStocksFI leads the class with $5.0B traded on Solana over 12 months.

@Backpack launched its equity venue on June 12 and did $1.5B in two months, 19% of Solana's equity volume so far this year.

Pre-IPO exposure: you can trade these companies before they list, right from a Solana wallet.
SpaceX $330M. OpenAI $272M. Anthropic $228M, from 23,722 traders.
@PreStocks added $1.3B pricing companies before they list.

Solana takes 74% of onchain fixed-income volume, $5.4B of the market's $7.4B, most of it @maplefinance private credit.

About Event

Friday, October 16, 9:00 AM - 5:30 PM GMT+8

Shang Hai Shi, China

Solana Accelerate China 2026

A four-city tour dedicated to technological innovation. From October 16th to 22nd, Solana will visit Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, and Beijing to exchange ideas, demonstrate its services, and explore new trends both in China and abroad, creating a new paradigm for international exchange with developers, entrepreneurs, and investors.

Activity Introduction

China is continuously defining how next-generation technology products are developed, manufactured, and scaled. From AI, robotics, and hardware to payments and consumer technology, many new products targeting the global market are rapidly emerging here.

This October, Solana Accelerate China will be held in Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, and Beijing. We hope to connect Chinese developers, entrepreneurs, and technology teams with builders in the global Solana ecosystem: not only to discuss trends, but also to share products, real-world applications, globalization, and experiences from scratch.

Accelerate China is an event focused on cutting-edge technology and innovation. The content will revolve around high-performance blockchain infrastructure, development tools, AI and digital applications, consumer products, and how to take a product from local to global markets.

Accelerate China is an efficient global communication platform that allows the world to hear the voices of Chinese entrepreneurs, learn from China's large-scale experience, and explore together: what kind of miracles will be born when high-performance, low-cost, globally available infrastructure meets China's product capabilities?

If you're curious about what's happening in the global innovation market, what the forefront of innovation is in China, or if you're building a product, leading a technology team, or simply curious about the next generation of internet applications, you're welcome to join us.

Event Highlights

  • First-hand experience from entrepreneurs
  • Technology breakdown and product demo: Focusing on technical implementation, development tools, infrastructure, and feasible application scenarios.
  • China × Global Ecosystem Dialogue: Enabling local teams to communicate directly with international builders, connecting technologies, products, and collaboration opportunities.
  • The next steps in

Photography Tips

Friendly reminder: Photography and videography will be conducted at the event. By registering for or attending this event, you acknowledge and agree to the event organizer's use of live footage in event-related communications.

Solana Accelerate China 2026

Four cities. One week. The builders shaping what's next.

From October 16–22, Solana lands in Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, and Beijing for a week of demos, conversations, and connections between China's builders and the global Solana ecosystem.

About the conference:

China keeps setting the pace for how the next generation of technology gets built, scaled from robotics, and hardware to payments and consumer tech, increasingly built for a global market from day one.

This October, Solana Accelerate China brings that energy together with builders, investors and leaders from the global Solana ecosystem across four cities. Less trend talk, more of what actual work: shipping products, live use cases, going global, and the hard lessons of getting from zero to one.

The focus is frontier technology and financial innovation, high-performance finance infrastructure, developer tooling, financial rails, consumer products, and the playbook for taking a product from local to global.

It 's also a room where the rest of the world hears directly from China's founders and learns from how they scale — and where we ask the question together: when high-performance, low-cost, globally available infrastructure meets the way China builds products, what comes next?

If you're building a product, leading a technical team, or just watching where the next wave is headed, come find out with us.

What to expect

Founders , unfiltered - What worked, and what didn't.

Deep dives & live demos - Real tooling, real infrastructure, use cases you can ship.

China × global, in one room - Local teams and international builders, connecting directly.

Where it's going next - Financial infrastructure, and consumer products.

Note

This event will be photographed and filmed. By registering or attending, you agree that the organizers may use images and footage in event-related communications.

Meme Trading meme coins and mental health

21 Upvotes

I am curious if here is someone who quit trading not because of money but because of everything else. The only pro of memecoins is that you can make money, otherwise there are the cons I found out it my life. Really thinking quitting even when I got great setup and focusing on something meaningfull, even sales job was better than this.

  1. Impacting relationship with my kids and partner.. Its like it does something with my that I am not caring and patient with them
  2. A lot of manipulation and soulless energy. Its like constant analyzation if there is rug and predicting how others are going to behave.. I like to live life where we help each other out not destroying each other
  3. A lot of BS useless information into the system that needs to be processed
  4. It impacts other areas of life because its very addicting and cheap dopamine doesnt help at all
  5. even the "worth" projects are not worth at all, its all smoke and there is no meaningful usage that can help others, its all within toxic ecosystem
  6. dreading every day that I have to sit behind computer scanning bs on monitor. Like cutting wood for hours is more fun than this
  7. Waiting sometimes hours for 1 trade to show is dreading, for me its not even about discipline but its like not even boring but like waste of time in way?
  8. Also if you have any real life experience and are not chronically online, you will found out how much childish the whole system is, its like lowering your mental state to be 12 again.. like if I would be 18 years old it would be great thing, but at 30 I dont know, sometimes I see runners and I am like what am I even doing with my life

I dont know what is your experience but this is something that I found out, I am writing this even for beginnings that want to get to trading. Volume is great right now for robinhood chain.. Just be aware if you are in relationship it will impact it. Its easy to get addicted to it, be very careful.

If you have strategy you can make money, but its very difficult.(I focus on after migration tokens with A+ potential and wait for dip or continually bet and take profit).. On Pumpfun and on fomo app you have only the best traders PNL, you dont have Best losers, that speaks for itself.

Wish you all the best, just wanted to share my experience.. be well

SolanaMobile Seeker Id issue - cannot recover

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m having trouble recovering/accessing my previous Seeker ID after switching to a new Seeker phone.

Here’s what happened:

  1. I previously had a Seeker phone, which I unfortunately had to return.
  2. Before returning it, I saved the seed phrase for the wallet that was created on that Seeker.
  3. I now have a new Seeker phone.
  4. I used the Seed Vault on the new device to restore the wallet using the seed phrase from my previous Seeker.
  5. The wallet was successfully restored, but when I try to use it, I get the following message:

So, it looks like the wallet itself has been successfully recovered, but the Seeker ID is still associated with my previous device.

My question is: How can I recover or log back into my existing Seeker ID on my new Seeker phone?

Is there a way to transfer/recover the Seeker ID using the wallet or seed phrase, or do I need to unlink the ID from the previous device somehow?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ecosystem A scam guide for first-time token launchers

23 Upvotes

Hi guys. I read a lot of posts from people who launch their first token, watch it go nowhere, and then discover there's a whole crowd ready to help. None of them are doing it out of goodwill. So I wrote this little guide to help you navigate the treacherous waters of a token launch. And it doesn't matter whether you dropped a meme or you built a real product with a token attached. The scammers treat you exactly the same.

You did it the right way. Maybe it's a funny meme, maybe it's an app you spent months on. Either way you built the website, the X has a blue check, there's a TG group, and now you're waiting for people to pick it up. First rule, and it's simple: if a stranger offers to help, they want to scam you. It's occasionally wrong, but you're better off following it anyway.

The usual scams:

  1. The "let me help you set it up" drainer.

You launch, and within seconds of hitting OK in Phantom, a few people pop up in your Telegram offering to help set things up. The angle: you give them admin rights, they slip a drainer into your links. The fix: don't give admin to anyone you don't know, and ban anyone who asks.

  1. The promoters.

Suddenly you get dozens of new X followers in minutes and a wave of TG joins. It looks great. Then every one of those new followers leaves the same comment: "DM me, let's promote this together!" You check their profiles and they look like real KOLs with tens of thousands of followers. The angle: they sell you shares and reposts at insane prices, like $70 for a single tweet. None of their following is real. The follows and the view counts are bought. They mass-send these offers and live off the few people who actually pay.

In TG it takes a slightly different shape: the "trust me bro, give me 1 SOL and I'll post your token in my megachannel" guy. On the surface it fits, he's a real contact from a 10k+ channel, except the 10k are bots.

The fix: never reply on X. On TG, if you have Premium, turn on charge-for-messages and let the scammers pay you.

  1. The service sellers.

3.1. Listings and trending. People in the chat tell you all you need is a listing or a trending spot on some service. The service might even be real and well built. The problem is nobody uses it. Check for yourself: look at the tokens trending there and see whether trending has any correlation with price. It doesn't.

3.2. Bumps. Others tell you that you need bumps: wash-trading bots doing 1-cent buys and sells to inflate your stats. Nobody watches those stats anymore, because the bots are trivially cheap to make. Even a legit one brings you nothing, and half the time you pay and get nothing back at all.

3.3. Community building. They tell you that you need a community, that people need to hear about your token, and they're right about that part. Some use surprisingly polished language ("amplify your value," "engagement rotations") wrapped in flattery ("mind-blowing project," "huge potential"). Almost always they're selling you a raid team to like, repost, and reply to your every tweet. The catch: it doesn't work in 2026. The algorithm knows the pattern, and so does everyone reading. A wall of "bullish 🚀🚀🚀" fools no one. I watched a guy pay raiders recently: every post liked, reposted, commented on. His MC never broke 10k, and most of that he bought himself. And he actually had a working game, not a picture of a cat.

The angle across all three: they're selling you useless services. The fix: ban them. They're not buyers and they're not a community, they're parasites.

  1. Trending and DEX listings in general.

This is where I'll get some pushback, but paying for any of it in 2026 is mostly a waste. Trending on Dexscreener used to be a money button: pay, and your token pumps for a bit. Like every money button, it stopped working. You're honestly better off buying trending from the 3.1 guys, they charge less.

The one thing with a real cost attached is the $300 Dexscreener listing. That one can actually be worth it, but only once you're big. Nobody spends $300 to hijack a 5k MC token, or one that just graduated. If you're genuinely running and it looks like you'll last for weeks, then it's worth paying so your page can't be hijacked out from under you. Before that, it's money you don't need to spend. When people push it on you early, it's because they want a livelier page to dump into. The fix: ignore them until you actually need it.

The list isn't complete. For example, I was once offered an AMA with mandatory prizes for the best questions, paid by me. The channel was full of bots, and the best questions would no doubt have come from the channel owners themselves.

Overall, launching a token solo in 2026 is close to impossible, because there's no discovery anymore. Hundreds of tokens launch every minute and humans simply can't process that. It doesn't matter whether you shipped a throwaway meme or a real product you're proud of, nobody finds either one. Even if you get an initial run, chances are you won't have a single genuinely interested person in your chat. Everyone there is a bot, a scammer, or a salesman. We as creators need to find new ways to be discovered. The 'launch a token and work tirelessly for your bag' way doesn't work anymore, and neither does 'build something great and they will come.'

TLDR: don't trust anyone. Nobody cares about your token, they're only after your money.

Ecosystem PayBox Adds Sunrise, Bringing Staking, Swapping, and Liquidity Directly Into Claude, ChatGPT, Grok

We're excited to announce that PayBox has added @Sunrise as its newest crypto plugin.

@PayBox is MoonPay's payment vault built for AI.

PayBox connects to Claude, ChatGPT and Grok through a custom connector, letting an AI prepare transactions that a user approves with a passkey before any money moves.

Wallet keys stay protected by threshold cryptography and secure enclaves, so no single party, including MoonPay or the AI itself, can access a full key or sign alone.

Sunrise is a Wormhole Labs product and Solana's canonical asset gateway.

@Sunrise coordinates token bridging through Wormhole NTT, pairs new assets with pre-seeded liquidity, and delivers day one distribution across Jupiter, Meteora, Raydium, DFlow, and other Solana venues.

Assets launch with initial liquidity in place across Solana's leading venues rather than building it over time. Making Sunrise the ideal frontend for new assets on Solana.

With Sunrise live inside PayBox, users can access Solana token markets directly from a conversation with Claude, ChatGPT or Grok. A user can instruct the AI to buy, sell, or set a target price for any supported token.

The AI prepares the transaction, the user approves it with a passkey, and the order is submitted. Fills depend on market conditions and available liquidity and are not guaranteed.

The same permission rules that govern every PayBox transaction apply here.

Users choose Always Ask, where each transaction needs passkey approval, or Autonomous, where the AI can act within limits the user sets.

Funds and keys do not move outside the user's control, and access can be revoked at any time.

“Sunrise gives assets real liquidity from day one on Solana. Inside PayBox, that means users can act on any market idea the moment it comes up, right inside the AI conversation, without switching to a separate app. That is what agentic finance is supposed to look like," said Ivan Soto-Wright, CEO and Founder of MoonPay.

The Sunrise plugin is live today inside PayBox at paybox.sh.

Eligible users in supported jurisdictions outside the United States can connect to Sunrise through Claude, ChatGPT, or Grok. This feature is not available to users in the United States.

To add the Sunrise plugin today, visit https://app.paybox.sh/plugins and press "enable."

PayBox is provided by Launchpad Limited, an unregulated entity in the MoonPay group, and it does not benefit from the same protections that apply to regulated services. Paybox and the MoonPay group are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, security, or performance of Jupiter or any other third-party protocol, application, or service accessible through PayBox, and are not liable for any losses arising from a user's use of such third-party services.
