Solana Set to Open IRL Retail Store and Web3 Embassy in New York

The Solana blockchain is opening an embassy in New York City. Not like a United Nations embassy with ambassadors and diplomats and flags, but a storefront that seemingly doesn’t plan to sell much of anything. Solana Spaces, located in the high-end Hudson Yards real estate development on Manhattan’s West Side, is a “culture center.” It’s a place where the Solana Foundation imagines people will go to hang out and get educated about crypto.
