Ever wondered what Solana's official symbol actually is? A lot of folks think it's ◎, but let me clarify—that's actually the Unicode circle symbol people commonly use as shorthand online. The real deal is that Solana typically goes by SOL as its ticker symbol on exchanges and most platforms. The ◎ has become more of a cultural thing in the crypto community, a visual representation traders and enthusiasts use casually. If you're looking at it from a technical standpoint though, SOL is what you'll find listed everywhere. Pretty neat how the community sometimes adopts its own symbols, right?

Huh? I really thought ◎ was official, turns out it's a product of internet culture.

Wow, I always thought ◎ was official, but it turns out it's something the community came up with?
Haha, now I understand. SOL is the real ticker, and ◎ is just a cultural product of our crypto圈.
The community creating symbols themselves is pretty interesting.
To be honest, the name SOL is indeed a bit boring, no wonder everyone prefers to use ◎.
But as long as exchanges recognize SOL, ◎ looks good and all.
This is the spirit of Web3, everything driven by the community.
After all, it still depends on trading pairs; ◎ is cool but it's useless without them.
The Solana community's creativity is truly amazing.

Ha, I always thought ◎ was for official, but it turns out it's a meme created by the community.

Haha, I've confused it before too. ◎ This thing looks fancy but is actually just a meme created by the community.

Haha, I already knew. ◎ This thing is just a convention among everyone. To actually list on an exchange, it still depends on SOL.
