Eternal Hodl: Trader Stakes Pennies in SOL for the Next 3 Millennia

In a move that’s part meme, part madness, and all blockchain, a Solana user has locked up just $0.05 worth of SOL—but here’s the kicker: the stake won’t unlock until the year 5138.

Yes, you read that right.

On-chain sleuths recently uncovered the time-defying stake via Solana’s blockchain explorer, and the crypto community quickly ran with it. Twitter (or X) lit up with theories, jokes, and even philosophical takes about what the world — or blockchain — might look like three thousand years from now.

The exact unlock date? Over 1.1 million days away.

While the amount staked is negligible, the time horizon is what caught everyone’s attention. Was it an epic troll? A coding slip-up? Or maybe a truly long-term bet on the future of Solana?

“It’s the ultimate hodl,” joked one user on Reddit. “Either this person believes in Solana way more than anyone else — or they fat-fingered a date and now they’re a meme.”

Some speculate it could’ve been a test transaction, or even a deliberate way to generate attention. Others are having fun imagining the sci-fi future this stake might live to see — decentralized AI-run cities, interstellar smart contracts, or Solana still waiting to reach $1,000.

While most traders are busy checking charts on the hour, this anonymous staker has become an instant legend — a symbol of patience (or satire) in a space often driven by FOMO and fast flips.

Until the year 5138, though, one thing’s certain: that $0.05 is going absolutely nowhere.
