Objective: Create a high quality research post or thread on X (Twitter) that explores how $MNT lives on Solana. Deliverable: A research post or thread on X (Twitter). Content to include: Pick ONE path to show how you would utilise $MNT on Solana: 1) What Exists Today — "Present and showcase how you would utilise $MNT on Solana right now, with existing opportunities supported on: Byreal; Bybit Alpha; Any current supported flow (Backpack, Drift, etc)". 2) What Should Exist Tomorrow — "Propose how $MNT could be used across Solana-native dApps (E.g. Jupiter, Meteora, Kamino, or any other dApps, infra, protocols across Solana you believe can be scalable)". Think like a founder. Speak for the user. Ship like a builder.
