- The meme "Star Atlas is inevitable" first surfaced in 2023, coined in an X post by Star Atlas Senior Community Manager, Dominic Vain. What began as a tongue-in-cheek meme quickly evolved into a rallying cry—“inevitable” became a badge of stubborn optimism and unshakable conviction. Through the turbulence of Web3 gaming, the community held fast to the belief: Star Atlas will endure.Few communities in Web3 gaming are as distinct as Star Atlas’s. That uniqueness is no accident. It’s rooted in deliberate choices—transparency, decentralization, and radical honesty. Even in times of economic uncertainty, those values remained non-negotiable.In the spirit of that resilience, this shirt had to exist. Because if Star Atlas is inevitable…so is a shirt with this meme.
- We are curious here at Galia Merchants. Recently, we read an interesting article in New York magazine about Polymarket founder Shayne Coplin. In that article we came across the word: futarchy. The founder of the term is a George Mason University economist named Robin Hanson who published a paper in 2013 titled: Shall We Vote on Values, but Bet on Beliefs?
In futarchy, democracy would continue to say what we want, but betting markets would now say how to get it. That is, elected representatives would formally define and manage an after-the-fact measurement of national welfare, while market speculators would say which policies they expect to raise national welfare.

- We at Galia Merchants are big fans of the Solana blockchain. That makes sense since we have been big fans of Star Atlas since the very beginning. We've created a tshirt that celebrates the Solana ecosystem, Solana Summer and the famous beach in southern California where Solana co-founders, Anatoly Yakovenko, Greg Fitzgerald and Stephen Akridge used to surf when they worked at Qualcomm. In other words, this is the ultimate Solana insider fan tshirt. It's also "soft af" according to some of our customers.
