Assylum Labs is a group of Solana devs building the stuff nobody else wants to touch—the high-value, low-priority problems that slip through the cracks because they're either too niche, too technical, or just not sexy enough for the big teams to care about.
Most teams are busy chasing the next token launch or building clone #47 of whatever's trending. We're more interested in the unsexy infrastructure work that actually moves the needle. The kind of tooling that 100 projects need but can't justify building themselves. The protocol improvements that save compute units network-wide but don't get you on CT. The research into primitives that could unlock entire new categories but require actual R&D time.
We pick projects based on impact, not hype. If it's technically interesting, fills a real gap, and nobody else is working on it—we're probably interested. Could be developer tooling, could be protocol optimizations, could be novel compression patterns or better ways to handle cross-program calls. Basically: hard problems that matter.
Everything gets open sourced. Everything gets documented. If you're building on Solana and hit a wall because the tooling doesn't exist yet, there's a decent chance we're already working on it or should be.
