Mike Dudas highlights that successful applications on platforms like Solana and emerging ecosystems such as HyperliquidX are often built by new entrants, not early insiders. This suggests that the barrier to entry for innovation and significant growth in these crypto ecosystems is low, potentially offering opportunities in newer projects or tokens within these networks. Investors should look for novel applications on Solana and HyperliquidX as they may represent the next wave of high-growth assets.
