Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko tells data centers to pivot to crypto

A nine-word post on X from the Solana co-founder offered a blunt piece of business advice and very little else Anatoly Yakovenko has some career advice for the people who run the world’s server farms. On November 4, 2026, the Solana Labs co-founder posted a single line on X: “If you are in data centers, pivot to crypto.” That was it. No thread, no chart, no follow-up. Nine words, delivered with the confidence of someone telling a friend to sell their minivan. The post went up at approximately 03:54 UTC. For most of the Americas, that was well past midnight.
