Solana is currently rife with multiple presale projects that have become a major cause of concern for the network. The growing number of presale schemes is jeopardizing user safety and the credibility of funds, a cause that has been recently outlined by Solana’s co-founder, Anatoly Yakovenko.

Yakovenko took to social media to voice his stark opinion. The Solana Co-Founder reposted ZachXBT’s post on X, consisting of the total number of presale projects live on Solana. He reiterated his strict stance, adding that he would like the community to stop engaging with such projects at once.

Yakovenko’s strict stance echoes the layers of safety and security that an investor should feel while exploring the cryptocurrency market. Such projects have notoriously been known to sabotage user safety and funds, with some of the projects causing “FUD” within the community.

Additionally, the tightening stance on presale projects might have partially impacted the meme coin market. At press time, leading meme coins, notably PEPE, BONK, and BOME, fell sharply, portraying a sporadic user interest metric.

Furthermore, the recent SLERF meme coin fallout further solidified the demise of the presale project theory.
