And this boils down to other “expert-ish” needs

Companies and even startups need to expand their time scope. In 2026 is not realistic to ask for 90 days results or closing enterprise deals in 6 months.

Give time and flexibility to experiment.

This is why KAST is the best at marketing

Crypto Twitter is landing in Singapore for TOKEN2049, and the timeline is full of the same photo: a black van with KAST on the door

What they did:
- invited members got a free private ride from Changi airport to the hotel, with a driver holding their name on a sign
- all spots were taken a day before the deadline
- from Oct 7 to 9, 10 @KASTxyz cars give free rides from the TOKEN2049 entrance, no booking needed
- they did the same at Consensus in Hong Kong in February

Then the guests do the marketing: "W stunt", "best VIP treatment as always", "not even 20 minutes after I landed"

Even the ones who missed out post about it: "Got a grab like pleb", with a SGD 45 receipt

Other cards pay for posts. KAST sends a car, and the posts write themselves

Has your Crypto Card ever done something like this for you?

E180: KAST Founder: Most crypto neobanks will be gone in 12 months

@raagulanpathy is the founder and CEO of @KASTxyz , a global stablecoin neobank, and a former Circle exec. He raised $80 million at a $600 million valuation on the thesis that the real prize isn't the stablecoin - it's the bank you build on top of it. We get into the money, the grind, and the token decision that pissed a chunk of his community off.
