CORE WORK

Products, media, events, and education.

A brief record of the main areas Step contributed to across Solana.

2021 onward

Portfolio dashboard

Step's original product gave Solana users a single place to track wallets, LP positions, farming positions, NFTs, and onchain activity when the ecosystem was still fragmented.

CoinDesk covered Step in April 2021 as a Solana dashboard born out of the Solana hackathon.

2021 onward

Analytics and portfolio API

Step expanded beyond a wallet UI into analytics and developer data, including portfolio and position APIs for Solana wallets.

Step's Portfolio API covered token balances, yield assets, NFTs, farms, DEXs, staking, lending, vaults, and margin.

2022 onward

SolanaFloor

Step expanded into ecosystem media through SolanaFloor, pairing product work with reporting, research, and broader Solana coverage.

CoinDesk covered the SolanaFloor acquisition in 2022 as part of Step's expansion into media and ecosystem coverage.

2023 onward

Solana Crossroads

Step built one of the most visible in-person Solana conferences, bringing teams, founders, and community members together around the ecosystem roadmap.

Crossroads has been presented as a major event in the ecosystem for over three years, with the 2025 edition planned for 2,000+ attendees in Istanbul.

2023 onward

Solana Allstars Academy

Step backed local education and community growth through Allstars Academy, pushing Solana onboarding and product education far beyond crypto-native hubs.

Allstars had hosted 1,240 events in 98 cities across 6 countries, engaging 128,000+ attendees as of July 2025.

2025 onward

Remora Markets / RWAs

Step expanded into real-world assets through Remora Markets, a Solana venue for tokenized stocks and metals. It entered the same tokenized-equity lane as xStocks, with Ondo arriving on Solana later.

Remora's own site positioned it around tokenized stocks on Solana, and January 2026 coverage highlighted metals including gold, silver, platinum, palladium, and copper.

TIMELINE

Step on Solana since 2021.

A short timeline of the products, media, events, and community work behind the brand.

Early 2021

Early Solana dashboard

Step emerged in the early Solana product wave and quickly became one of the more visible consumer brands around wallet and portfolio tracking.

2021

Analytics + aggregation

The product expanded from portfolio views into aggregation, analytics, and developer-facing data for wallets and onchain positions.

2022

SolanaFloor acquisition

Step added SolanaFloor, extending the brand from dashboards and analytics into media, NFT data, and ecosystem coverage.

2023-2025

Crossroads + Allstars

Crossroads and Allstars turned Step into more than a product brand, with recurring conferences, meetups, and education programs across multiple countries.

2025 onward

Remora Markets

Step's product footprint also extended into RWAs through Remora Markets, bringing tokenized stocks and later onchain metals to Solana.

Now

Validator-focused site

The public site is much smaller today, but the validator sits on top of years of product, media, and community work across Solana.
