@remitt_ease - 2nd Place ($1,500)
Remitt Ease is solving cross border payments with real traction from day one.
Early users were drawn to fees below 1% and fast, transparent transfers. A cleaner way to move money across Africa.
Behind every good product is a builder who refuses to accept “this is just how it works”
For @remitt_ease , that builder is Magnanimous.
In our case study, he breaks down:
→ the idea
→ the challenge he’s attacking
→ where Código shaved weeks off the build
Cape Town’s Shipyard event was a win for the builders and a proud moment for our Project @YenaPredict team.
Big thanks to @ShipyardSA, @superteam and @solana for hosting.
Still buzzing from the prize, the chats & the connections. @ellihandro@Eman_sol_@fresh0x@KingMaggerz
Keep building & watch this space!
