Proud to be part of @GCCofCommons Cohort 2.
It has been an inspiring journey building alongside a community pushing forward privacy, open infrastructure, and digital sovereignty.
GCC is now opening applications for Cohort 3. We highly encourage builders in Silicon Valley and beyond to apply.

As a public goods fund supporting blockchain and open technologies, GCC is creating space for meaningful innovation at the intersection of AI and blockchain.BETA is honored to build alongside GCC in strengthening the Chinese-speaking blockchain ecosystem.

At BETA, we are also preparing for our April OpenClaw and Web4.0 Hackathon. We look forward to exploring the next generation of AI agents and decentralized systems together.
