The collaboration between social giant and Solana's Smart Cashtags is not the end, but the beginning of layout in the crypto ecosystem.
From the perspective of cooperation logic, once a platform establishes a foothold on a certain public chain, it will naturally expand to other mainstream ecosystems — this is not only about ecosystem diversification but also an inevitable choice to cover users. And when traffic and attention gather, the temptation of spot trading markets becomes evident. With a user base of daily active users and payment infrastructure, the threshold for entering the spot trading market is much lower than starting a new exchange from scratch.
A deeper implication is that once the platform has mastered spot trading users and data, the derivatives trading market becomes a natural extension. The high frequency and high liquidity of derivatives trading are attractive to any participant aiming to maximize platform value. As a high-performance public chain, Solana happens to have the technical foundation to support such trading. The significance of this collaboration may far exceed initial functional innovation.

Well, this logical chain is laid out so clearly. On social platforms entering the crypto space, there's no such thing as "doing only this one thing." Spot → Contracts → Derivatives, step by step, they understand user data and liquidity. This time, Solana is probably being used as a tool, huh.

Wow, is this social giant planning to directly take over the exchange market?
Spot → Contracts, the logical chain is so clear that nothing can stop it.
Solana has finally found the right backer this time.

Exactly right, this is the strategy... From cashtags to spot trading and then to derivatives, it’s only a matter of time before social platforms take a share of the exchange's cake.
