I won the hackathon.
But what really matters to me isn’t just the trophy.
It’s the incredible builders, supporters, and users I met along the way.
This experience made one thing clear: @superteam , @colosseum , and the Solana ecosystem have built one of the strongest builder cultures in the world.
It’s not just about tech. It’s about energy, generosity, and people pushing each other to go further.
I'm proud to be a small part of it.
Bullish on Solana 🫡🔥
Interestingly, something like "intents" was once proposed even in traditional finance.
SEC’s Proposal 615 aimed to introduce competitive auctions for retail stock orders before execution—pushing for more transparency and better pricing.
In contrast, crypto protocols are already running similar auction-based intent systems—live, permissionless, and composable.
So in some ways, crypto is not just reinventing finance—it’s moving ahead of it.
I got into finance through crypto, so when I found out after using DEXs that international transfers take days and stock markets aren’t open 24/7, I honestly couldn’t believe it at first.
Crypto is making it possible for anyone to own a bank account.
Even with a 5-year visa and all the documents, I got rejected by 6 banks in Bangkok before finally opening one.
The real problem isn’t being rejected — it’s that vague policies leave everything to human discretion.
Some say the future of intents is that they’ll automatically invest your funds — for example, into whatever yields the most.
But I’m skeptical.
No one opens Uber Eats and says, “Just give me the tastiest food, I don’t care what it is.
Decided to relocate to Thailand after Devcon.
After two years of nomading with our CTO, I felt the need to settle down and focus.
Thanks to the DTV visa, the process was surprisingly smooth — happy to share advice if anyone's struggling with it!

Crypto mass adoption won’t come from cleaner UI alone.
It’ll come from building experiences that don’t demand users to become engineers or economists.
That’s the real unlock.

Grok isn’t just a toy for geeks or early adopters.
It’s a mass-market AI product.
Yet, I’m now convinced that only half—maybe just 25%—of the world can truly use AI meaningfully.
Here’s why:

Solving UX or gas fees isn’t enough.
We need frameworks that work even when users don’t know what they want.
Systems that guide, adapt, and minimize friction at a cognitive level—not just on the frontend.
