What does this mean for Solana?

Story of bitcoin There is also evidence that the public perception, no matter how negative, will be correct over time, provided that the project has a solid foundation. So the same thing applies to Solana, Ayelo believes:
‘Similar things happened in the previous cycle with Opensea, Coinbase and others, this is a ever -repeated story. I know that you do not get a good engagement if you make a sound to a nuance, but every person associated with Solan is not bad just because some criminals and some employees have done bad things. […] Anyway, it will also pass. As it always does. Ayo said X post,
Keeping this in mind, Solana’s new layer 2 upgrade, solaxi, is looking to get, and how can it affect the meme coins and crypto market?
