Tomorrow's onchain founders could be today's undergrads.
So we met some of the best at @CalBlockchain’s B@B Hacks 2.0, alongside teams like @SpaceX, @Ripple, powering them with the tools and playbook to build on the open financial network.
Early is the whole point.
We are taking Zcash to UC Berkeley with @CalBlockchain.
There will be technical sessions on Zcash, why it matters, what is coming, and how you can contribute!
We are so excited to see you all there.
@ykr_sigi and I built Jarvis, an iMessage agent you can text to pay someone, order on Amazon, and much more!
It never holds your keys. Every action pops up on your @Ledger and only goes through once you approve it.

Excited to announce @nemild (@ycombinator) and @SpagnoloAlyssa (@FoundationCap) as our guest judges for B@BHacks 2.0!
Berkeley's highest-caliber hackathon with over $10,000 cash in prizes is this Sunday. See you there!
The next killer app on Mantle could be yours to build.
And there’s no better place to start than @CalBlockchain’s B@B Hacks 2.0 on Oct 11, where top hackers are coming together alongside @withAUSD, @Ripple, @Gemini, @Lighter_xyz and more.
Come get the inside track on building on Mantle, plus merch.

[B@B 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY] 🎊
10 years ago, a group of Berkeley students came together to learn about Bitcoin and educate each other on a technology they believed could change the world.
They probably didn’t know that, a decade later, that little group would blossom into one of Berkeley’s top tech communities and bring together some of the most ambitious, thoughtful, kind, and absolutely cracked people we know.
Over the last 10 years, B@B has been home to some insane startups and even crazier ideas. But more importantly, it’s given us lifelong friendships, unforgettable memories, and a ridiculous amount of laughter along the way.
B@B turned 10 this year, and one reunion simply wasn’t enough. So, in true blockchain fashion, we forked it, hosting anniversary celebrations on both coasts and bringing together alumni from across a decade of B@B.
Some highlights:
- A photo wall of 10 years of our most wholesome moments, walking down memory lane
- Custom engraved Ledgers for our alumni made by our own @DivijMot@createdbymason
- A tres leches “10 Years of B@B & Boujee” cake courtesy of former-pres @Ridddhiiii
- Lots of old lore, reunions, and questionable stories resurfacing
@CalBlockchain had a great time this weekend running Berkeley's Robotics Hackathon! 🦾
Some project highlights:
> Robots emulating actions from egocentric video
> Post-trained VLAs for automated food consumption
> Raspberry Pi based rover for monitoring plant health

How secure is your crypto in cold storage? 🔐
We sat down with Charles Guillemet (@P3b7_), CTO of @Ledger, to discuss hardware wallet security, post-quantum cryptography, and exploit-resilient agentic payments.
