1. What is this thing for?
$SOLO is the "boss stock" issued by Solomon Labs, a project that has created a thing called USDv on Solana, which "prints its own money". You can put in USDC, USDT, or SOL and exchange it 1:1 for USDv; it is always worth 1 dollar, but automatically earns interest through arbitrage strategies, currently with an annualized rate of 12.9%. The money goes directly into your wallet, and you can spend or exchange it at any time, completely unlocked. Backed by the top incubator MetaDAO on the Solana chain, it has only been online for 1 month, with a TVL of just 2 million dollars (a small pool).
2. Why do some people shout cow?
"Solana's dollar will finally make money, this is the invisible foundation of the MetaDAO ecosystem." The narrative is riding the RWA wave, but it's still in beta, whether the TVL rises or not is the real issue.
3. Three unique skills
1. Interest automatically drips into your wallet (YaaS), wake up after a sleep and your wallet is fatter, now at 12.9%.
2. Go to Raydium to add SOL/USDv pool, not only collect transaction fees, but also share in USDv's interest, annualized can pull 15%.
3. The official design is to let new MetaDAO projects prioritize using USDv for liquidity, theoretically it can form a spinning wheel, but the current TVL is only 2 million, the spinning wheel is still in its infancy, whether it can turn depends on the actual adoption rate, if it can turn, then it will take off.
4. The relationship between $SOLO and USDv
USDv = Your bank deposit: steadily earning 12.9% interest, can play alone, redeem anytime and leave. $SOLO = The stock of this bank: play alone to bet on the price increase of the rotating wheel, earning buybacks + dividends + voting rights. The two brothers are completely unbound!
* Want to sleep well → only hold USDv to earn interest, don't touch $SOLO.
* Want to bet on getting rich → only buy $SOLO to wait for 5-10 times.
* Want to eat from both ends → 70% USDv as a safety net + 30% $SOLO to chase profits, most comfortable.
5. Token economics
A total of 25.8 million tokens, will never print new currency. Currently circulating 12.9 million tokens (50%), the 10 million tokens from the public sale have all been unlocked. The team has 12.9 million tokens locked in a safe, they will start to slowly release them monthly after May 2026, and it will be until May 2028 before they are fully released. The platform will use 20-30% of the profits to buy back $SOLO to burn or distribute to stakers, with staking yielding 10-15% real USDC. Spinning wheel: use USDv → make money → burn $SOLO → price rises → more people come → TVL explodes. Now TVL is only 2 million, the spinning wheel is currently slowly heating up, the small TVL is a bottleneck.
6. Who is the big player? (Concentration)
Super concentrated! The top 10 wallets control 45-50%, the top 100 control 75-80%. Whales + MetaDAO internal wallets hold the majority, while retail investors (3962 people) only hold 20-25%. When it rises, it's a rocket; when it drops, it's lightning, selling large orders easily slides 10-20%.
7. Unlocking selling pressure
In the short term (until May 2026), selling pressure is low, team tokens are locked tightly, whales can only make small disturbances. Bad news: In May 2026, 6.45 million tokens (25% supply) will be released all at once, possibly teaming up to crash the market, retail investors may pick up the slack. Good news: Locked positions have stabilized the current price ($1.22 sideways), buying time for the spinning wheel.
8. Market cap estimate
Current price is 1.22 dollars, market cap 15.8 million dollars (little fresh meat). By the end of 2025: $18-30 M (price $1.4-2.3, relying on TVL to steadily rise to $10M, neutral forecast).
2026: $20-50 M (price $1.55-3.88, optimistic spinning wheel/TVL breaking $50M; conservative cap $20M, if competition intensifies or bear market drags down). Bad scenario: drop to 0.8-0.9 dollars, market value dropping to 10-12 million (controversy erupts or Solana dip)
9. How do experienced drivers play?
Total position ceiling 5-10%, can't sleep with more. 70% change to USDv to earn 12.9% interest (most stable, Phantom → app-solomonlabs.org) 30% buy $SOLO to stake for buybacks (Raydium address SoLo9oxzLDpcq1dpqAgMwgce5WqkRDtNXK7EPnbmeta, slippage 10%) Newbies can just play with USDv! Stop-loss at 0.7 dollars, if it breaks, run completely. Wait for TVL to break 10 million + YaaS officially launched before adding positions, now is just betting early.
10. Risk warning 🔔
1. TVL is only 2 million, the pool is as thin as paper, selling large orders directly causes slippage and blood loss.
2. ICO oversubscribed by 8 million dollars, whales dilute retail investors, Polymarket insiders manipulate, the community is torn apart.
3. Completely dependent on Solana, if there is a problem with the chain, you are done, if the arbitrage strategy fails, interest becomes negative.
Summary:
$SOLO is like a newly hatched little fresh meat chicken, will lay golden eggs (USDv) + spinning wheel potential ($SOLO), but the chicken is still small and controversial. Want to steadily earn eggs → only hold USDv. Want to bet on the chicken growing to sell at a high price → buy a small position of $SOLO. Want to sleep well → just wait until it breaks 10 million TVL to see. Risk is half and half, DYOR, good luck!
