According to Odaily Planet Daily, Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko stated that only about 6 underlying smart contracts are important, and increasing developer optionality adds business risk.
Jesse Pollak, head of the Base protocol, believes that the philosophical differences between Solana and Ethereum in the use of smart contracts are significant. Solana reuses a small number of contracts, while Ethereum believes there are infinite contracts to be built.
Yakovenko added that the main on-chain uses currently are tokens, NFTs, and AMMs, with no other factors seen as decisive drivers.
