2nd day at Stellar House Mexico City, and the momentum is real!
This is the first stop of our tour, where conversations with investors and partners start turning into real opportunities.
@devmonsterb, @esteblock_dev and @coderipper are on the ground with @buildonstellar, open to talk with wallets, neobanks, financial apps, and investors exploring what’s next on @stellarorg.
Let's connect! 💫
Arrived in Stellar House Mexico City 🇲🇽
This is where online conversations turn into real deals.
If you’re around, @devmonsterb and @coderipper are here and open to connect, whether you’re exploring yield or just curious about how @defindex_ works.
Let’s see what gets unlocked this week with @stellarorg 💫
6 months after that I bought a one-way ticket to Miami with no return. Coded from a rafting center in Bosnia, cafes in Sarajevo, apartments in Germany.
The fastest way to learn is to need it right now.
#DeveloperBacklog #2
I learned Python in 2 days because someone needed their Bitcoin portfolio managed with software instead of Excel.
6 months later I was writing Solidity on Avalanche with @DevMonsterB and @esteblock_dev.
@0xkaankacar Nice! I built a deep-dive Stellar CLI skill that covers every command and workflow -- simulation, tx pipeline, deployment, etc. Could complement the CLI section here. Happy to PR if useful!

¿Cómo funciona el rendimiento en @somosmeru?
Simple.
Depósito → Estrategia → Ganancia
Detrás de escena, los vaults de @DeFindex_ asignan automáticamente los fondos a estrategias DeFi diseñadas para generar intereses.
Sin pasos complejos.
Sin saltar entre protocolos.
Solo una forma más inteligente de generar intereses ✨

Before the PS3 I was already doing this stuff without knowing it. Blogspot sites at 10. Jailbreaking iPods for classmates. Proxies at school to unblock websites.
At 17 I started KustomGaming. Custom PS3 controllers, soldered paddles, paint, branding. Gave a talk at a university.
Started building my own RTM tools in C#. When new Call of Duty games dropped, I was in pre-release lobbies hunting memory pointers alongside other hackers.
Sold leveled-up CoD accounts for $5. First revenue ever.
Great to join the Stellar Hackathon last weekend as mentor and judge.
I mentored teams in the Genesis track and also supported some in Scale. Great experience overall.
Thanks @TheBAFNetwork and @BuildOnStellar. Glad to be there with @_mr_doom representing @defindex_
I’ll be attending @MEXICO_MBWEEK.
At @defindex_ we’re building savings infrastructure for wallets and fintechs, helping them offer stablecoin savings to their users through a plug-and-play API.
If you’ll be there and want to connect, send me a DM.
One of the highlights of @mmerge_io was a great discussion about the future of financial infrastructure and blockchain adoption in emerging markets 💫
Conversations like these reinforce something we strongly believe at @DeFindex_:
The next generation of financial apps will integrate on-chain earning directly into user experiences.
And infrastructure will be the key layer enabling it.

.@mmerge_io = Institutional sumit in São Paulo is in full swing 🇧🇷
Amazing to see so many institutions and fintech leaders discussing the future of digital finance in LATAM.
Conversations like these are exactly why we’re building @DeFindex_, the infrastructure that allows these institutions to integrate automated on-chain earning.
If you’re here, come say hi to @esteblock_dev and @coderipper 👋
@stellarorg@buildonstellar
We’re here at @mmerge_io! 💫
One of the largest Web3 and digital finance gatherings in LATAM.
@esteblock_dev and @coderipper on site connecting with institutions and fintechs, and exploring the future of on-chain finance.
At DeFindex, we’re building the infrastructure that enables institutions, financial and fintech apps to offer automated earning directly to their users.
Are you in São Paulo? Let’s connect!

In DeFi, compensation isn’t an expense. It’s an investment in reputation.
In less than a week:
• Price manipulation vector was identified.
• Coordinated remediation together with @script3official
• Reimbursed 100% of affected users.
• Completed all transfers today as of 19h00 UTC.
Transparency matters → https://t.co/7otahwQrQ7
Earn balances are fully operational again.
If you withdrew last week, we’d love to welcome you back.
DeFindex is infrastructure.
Trust is built through action.
