This wave of mutual roasting is indeed funny.

Here's what happened: Solana just posted a rant on X — Starknet has only 8 daily active users, fewer than 10 daily transactions, yet its market cap is 1 billion. Before they finished speaking, Starknet responded with a gorilla emoji meme: Who the heck told you this data, you little dwarfs?

Starknet's CEO took it even further, directly saying Solana has 8 bald interns who spam 10 tweets every day. Then Toly also chimed in, and the topic eventually turned into a discussion about who is balder.

Neither project is a pushover. These kinds of "internet table-flipping" conversations between communities actually reveal the activity level and cohesion of each community. Sometimes, gossiping and roasting can bring projects and users closer more than cold technical discussions.
