Video Recap of the Solana Ecosystem in 2025

About the Bounty

Here’s a bounty for the Founding Creators — storytellers who can deep dive into a topic and communicate their ideas in a visually engaging format.

With Breakpoint around the corner, we are inviting you to bring out the camera and become Solana’s nCMOs.

Your mission is to create a Video Recap, diving deep into the Solana Ecosystem in 2025. The ideal submission will be:

1. A talking-head style/storytelling video diving deep into all the action that took place in the Solana Ecosystem in 2025.

2. An engaging, fun-to-watch, and easy-to-understand resource for anyone to learn about all key product developments, partnerships, launches, protocol-level upgrades, events, and more in the past year.

3. Covering key metrics, app and developer ecosystem, along with a network and financial analysis.

4. Suggesting areas for improvement, metrics to focus on, interesting themes for 2026, and opportunities on Solana in the next year.

5. Featuring one or more people vs just being an animated video

Other Evaluation Criteria

In addition to the criteria shared above, our judges will use the following criteria to judge your submissions:

• Did you give a compelling introduction and a satisfying conclusion?

• Is your video easy to understand?

• Did you avoid overly complex jargon?

• Did you explain concepts in a way a person new to crypto could understand?

Submission Requirements

• Your submission needs to be a video featuring one or more people published on a public platform like X or YouTube. Google Drive and other draft links are not acceptable for this bounty.

• Your submission should be at least one minute long. The ideal submissions would be 1-3 minutes long.
