Fact Check
The statement is strongly supported by the evidence. Source 2 (CertiK Pulse) explicitly states, 'Solana founder and official account promote Chinese name campaign on social media.' This directly confirms the campaign's existence and its promotion by key figures. The other pieces of evidence are either irrelevant, referring to a city named Solana Beach, a person named Javier Solana, or legal terms for a different campaign (Solana Name Service), and do not contradict the primary evidence.
Summary
Solana’s community is invited to participate in a contest organized by Trends.fun to propose a Chinese name for Solana, with a total prize pool of 100 SOL. The top proposal will win 66 SOL, second place earns 33 SOL, and one random participant will receive 1 SOL. The event runs until October 17, 2025, and considers social media and platform engagement in the evaluation. Solana’s official X account and founder Toly have endorsed the campaign, which aims to boost the network’s cultural presence in East Asia.
