What is the purpose of integrating a token, and how should it be designed from a first-principles approach in order to accomplish that goal? Is raising via equity sale a viable option as opposed to launching a token? Under what circumstances? Common tactic of Trading Firms to make large investments in locked tokens and goad ppl into pumping in short- and medium-term and then not caring if it's down significantly in secondary market because even if its -90% they are up 10x We are not in a capital-constrained market environment: teams with solid devs and ideas dont "need" VC money, theres plenty in the broader space but often limited to secondary market Pre-product vs post-product team strategies

Tell us about your journey as a team and project from BSC to Solana Investin allows for anyone on chain to create a fund and take investors and generate returns -- tell us how this works from: accounting properly for different tokens that people invest with (SOL, USDC, etc) normally when someone is running a Fund, there is a "home currency" like USD that does all the accuonting, so if someone sends EUR it converts to USD. is this the same for Investin Pro ? Who controls the keys? How does the fund manager engage in trades without being able to just withdraw the moeny of investors?

Background The SPL governance program that Mango uses for its DAO, allows for vote delegation. This means users who deposit their MNGO tokens to the Governance realm can choose to delegate their tokens' votes on proposals to a given account. Whalepool Freedom Party will set up an account, seeded with 1 million MNGO tokens, which any member can delegate their votes to trustlessly. The votes delegated to not augment governance power (so the pooled tokens dont contribute to power to create proposal), but the 1 million MNGO in the account will reach the threshold for creating proposals, and as a party we will agree on what is worthy to create. Benefits Will have enough MNGO to create own proposals that the party decides for

Bugs Transactions do not show a success message using Sollet.io wallet, they show error instead -- but it does work anyway... Update: confirmed on Phantom as well: When a transaction fails to show success, the UI will not update, requiring user to refresh to show that tokens are available or vote has been properly registered.

How practical is it for Solana as a network to be forked where the network of validators and complexity of code may make it difficult to continue?
