What is The Phalanx?

We are a group of very selected Multichain web3 enthusiasts. We do not pick a Blockchain, we grind our way to where the money is, and have fun doing it.
We are all investors but also degens at heart.
We began as "TaiyoETH," an ETH focused approved Subdao of @TaiyoRobotics, a Bluechip NFT collection on Solana. Initially, it faced challenges and was rugged by early owners. However, @SolportTom intervened, derugged it, and turned it into one of Solana's foremost tech-oriented collections.
As TaiyoETH, we were ETH focused hence the name. Capitalizing on the Blur stimmy era on ETH, while the SOL NFT space experienced a slowdown. For nearly four months, we excelled in ETH space, establishing a strong presence.
A significant turning point came when we absorbed the Black Pyramid Alpha DAO (https://twitter.com/BLKPYMDGroup) , taking over the project from its previous owners who struggled to deliver value to their holders. This unexpected development brought Black Pyramid Origins into our fold as a genesis collection.

The deep bear market arrived, bringing with it a period of relative inactivity. In response, we made a strategic decision. Recognizing the value of airdrops, we shifted our focus. We restructured our Discord community and introduced an unparalleled airdrop forum, setting a new standard in the space. We embarked on a relentless journey to claim airdrops, and this grind continues to this day.
The deep bear market hit hard, with Bitcoin plummeting to 14K and Solana dipping below 10 USD Many left the web3 space, and yet, through sheer determination and resilience, we not only survived but thrived. Then we started seeing some green candles. And a shift in money flow.
As Solana's NFT began to experience a resurgence, fueled by the rise of gaming, we faced a critical choice. To thrive in this evolving landscape, we understood that we had to adapt and embrace a multichain approach. ETH alone was no longer sufficient. Hence, we made the monumental decision to undergo a rebrand, shedding our former name, TaiyoETH, and emerging as the dynamic TaiyoX
As the market matured, so did we. We recognized the need for a shift, a transformation. To overcome challenges and accelerate our growth, we initiated a purge. Around 200 Taiyo Robotics holders were removed, making way for a more active and focused community.
Now, after a year of relentless dedication, we stand stronger than ever before. We now know the beginning was the toughest part of this journey.
Finally we removed Taiyo from our name to become The Phalanx and continue on our own path.
This transformation wasn't a rejection of our roots but a necessary evolution. While Taiyo Robotics and the Taiyo name have been integral to our story, they have also become limiting factors. The rebrand is a strategic move to establish our unique identity and consolidate our position in the metaverse. It's a step towards independence, enabling us to chart our course and garner recognition for our achievements and ambitions.
If you seek to be part of something great that demands patience, The Phalanx welcomes you. Now... Now, let them tremble.
