Building the NASDAQ of Solana!

We sat down with Tristan Frizza, Co-founder of Bullet.xyz, at Crossroads Istanbul to unpack why Bullet is being called the "Hyperliquid of Solana." Tristan explains how Bullet reduces execution latency by 200x, how it solves critical congestion issues for traders, and how Bullet fits into Solana’s vision of becoming the NASDAQ of onchain finance. We also hear about Bullet's testnet launch, plans for growth, and what success looks like in 2025.
