The Chinese name “Solara” was born. Is Solana sounding the clarion call for a counterattack?

On the evening of October 20, 2025, Solana’s official account retweeted a tweet about its Chinese name, “Solala,” marking official recognition of the community-initiated Chinese name. Subsequently, the meme coin of the same name saw a significant price increase in a short period of time, with its current market capitalization currently reported at approximately $15 million, according to GMGN.

The naming process began on October 14th, when content tokenization platform Trends.fun launched a “Chinese Name for Solana” campaign, offering a 100 SOL prize pool. The rules required participants to retweet an official tweet and submit a proposed Chinese name. The best proposal would receive a 66 SOL reward.

Mable, founder of Trends.fun, said at the launch of the event that someone reminded her that Solana did not yet have an official Chinese name, and that Ethereum’s Chinese name “Ethereum” had helped ETH spread better in the Eastern market.

On October 15th, Solana Foundation President Lily Liu commented on a tweet about “Solala,” noting the connection between her Chinese name, “立立,” and “Solala.” She explained that her parents chose the neutral character “立,” perhaps hoping she would become a builder.

On October 19th, user muper announced that he had won a prize in the Solana Chinese name campaign and pledged to donate the prize to the Chinese community. He explained that the name “Solala” was inspired by a post by the president of the Solana Foundation. His team created the name to represent the image of a long-haired builder girl, symbolizing every builder working on Solana.

On October 20th, Lily Liu responded to muper’s tweet, calling it a “cute picture,” and changed her profile picture to “Solala.” That same evening, the official Solana account quoted muper’s tweet with the caption “Solala,” officially endorsing the Chinese name.

This series of interactions has attracted market attention to Trends.fun’s meme coin of the same name, “Solara”.

On the morning of October 21, muper posted again that he had earned over $20,000 in transaction fees on Trends.fun in just half a day. He expected this figure to reach $100,000 soon and promised to return the transaction revenue to the community.

Other suggestions during the naming process

During the naming campaign, the community proposed several different names. Solana Labs co-founder Toly stated in Chinese on the 16th that he personally thought “Solana” was a good choice, “Solala” was cute, and “Suona” was also quite funny.

These suggestions reflected the community’s diverse perspectives on Solana’s Chinese name. Ultimately, “Solala” stood out due to its interaction with the Solana Foundation’s chairman and its widespread popularity within the community.

Interpretation of the Chinese name “Xuanxue”

The influence of naming culture in the mật mãcurrency field is not an isolated case. According to the “Bu Yi Ju Name Test” analysis, after comparing Chinese names such as “Solala”, “Bitcoin”, and “Ethereum”, it was found that

The name configuration of “Solara” is interpreted as “a stable foundation, good luck in success, wealth, fame and great development.”

In contrast, Bitcoin was analyzed as “easy to achieve goals successfully, but lacking endurance”; Ethereum was considered “difficult to be recognized and appreciated, and futile, even if it has strength”; and Binance Life was considered “strong as iron, stubborn, and unwilling to give in, with deep strength and talent, creating a brilliant and glorious future.”

As cryptocurrency continues to globalize and Binance Futures launches its first Chinese-language token, “Binance Life,” localizing names and cultural adaptation will likely become crucial aspects of project development. Just as the Chinese name for “Ethereum” helped spread its popularity in the Chinese market, whether “Solara” can provide new growth momentum for the Solana ecosystem remains to be seen.
