A Quick Explanation
It’s been about nine days since my last post, so I want to be transparent about the pause.
During this period, I transitioned into a new role at a new company. While it’s not in the Web3 space, the onboarding process required a significant amount of focus — getting familiar with the codebase, internal tooling, and the team’s workflow.
Rather than rushing low-quality updates, I decided to temporarily pause publishing and give myself the space to properly settle in. That context switch took a bit longer than expected, but it was necessary.
Now that I’m back in a stable rhythm at work, I’m ready to continue this 90-day learning experiment.
I’m Back to the 90-Day Experiment
This pause doesn’t change the original intent of this series.
I’m still committed to the 90-day learning experiment and to learning Web3 in public — documenting what I learn, what I misunderstand, and how my mental models evolve over time.
That said, I want this journey to be sustainable. Instead of forcing updates just to keep a streak alive, my focus will remain on consistency and quality. Some days may go deeper than others, but every post will reflect real learning and hands-on understanding.
With that in mind, I’m officially back and continuing from where I left off.
What I’ll Focus on Next
Over the past few days of reading and exploration, I’ve become increasingly interested in the Solana ecosystem.
After covering the fundamental concepts of Web3 and blockchain — such as how blockchains work, trust models, and smart contract fundamentals — I plan to gradually shift part of my focus toward Solana-specific topics.
The reason is simple: Solana presents a very different set of design trade-offs compared to EVM-based chains. Its execution model, performance characteristics, and developer experience raise questions that are especially interesting from a systems and engineering perspective.
To support this direction, I’ll also start learning Rust, which is widely used in the Solana ecosystem. This will be a longer-term investment, and I’ll document both the conceptual learning and the hands-on challenges along the way.
If you’re curious about Solana, Rust, or how different blockchain architectures compare in practice, I hope this part of the journey will be useful to you as well.
What You Can Expect Going Forward
Going forward, I’ll continue sharing concise, hands-on learning notes as part of this 90-day experiment.
Each post will focus on understanding core concepts, building correct mental models, and connecting theory with practical implementation — whether that’s through code snippets, diagrams, or small experiments.
This series remains a learning log, not a set of polished tutorials. Mistakes, confusion, and course corrections are all part of the process, and I’ll document them honestly as they happen.
If you’re on a similar path, I hope these posts can serve as a useful reference — or at least a reminder that learning complex systems is rarely a straight line.
