According to @KookCapitalLLC, there are currently 24 launchpads operating on the Solana (SOL) blockchain, which the source suggests is relatively few given the pace of ecosystem growth. The commentary highlights potential market demand for additional launchpad platforms and even proposes the idea of a 'meta-launchpad' that enables the creation of new launchpads. This trend signals increased competition for early-stage token launches on Solana and may present new trading opportunities for investors seeking exposure to high-yield project launches and related tokens (Source: @KookCapitalLLC).
