1/ Spotlight on, pls 💜
Today we're chatting with @alieneliane - 11 years in marketing. 4 years in crypto. 0 plans to stop building.
Our sis went from "Solana looked so fun. I wanted to be part of that." to entering her builder arc at @dev3pack & @colosseum, where Future You was born: an app helping you stay consistent without the shame spiral.
Her convo with @inks will probably make you wanna ship. Watch at your own risk!

GM, haven't given the weekly recap for @solbreach_app so let's dig in to it.
1/ This week was all about GTM and marketing on @dev3pack accelerator and @waylearnlatam, and had some updates as well regarding the app.
I'm glad about one more workshop
Thank you, @dev3pack team, @_SDAV for bringing so many insightful and important workshops
The bridge program nailed it!

The entity you choose on day one quietly decides three things:
- how you're taxed
- what your regulatory exposure looks like
- how painful your next raise is
Most founders find this out when its too late. Happy that @dev3pack is making sure these entrepreneurs think about structure from Day One.

Hoy se realiza el cierre simbólico del hackathon #Build4Venezuela.
Durante estos días, distintos equipos trabajaron en herramientas reales y funcionales pensadas para apoyar a quienes más lo necesitan dentro de Venezuela tras la catástrofe que atraviesa el país.
Hoy se presentan esos proyectos en un Build Showcase abierto para toda la comunidad.
El objetivo es que estas soluciones lleguen a más personas, se puedan usar, mejorar y compartir.
📺 Transmisión por YouTube, Kick y Twitch.
🕕 6pm México | 7pm Perú | 8pm Venezuela/Chile | 9pm Argentina
La iniciativa no termina acá. Se sigue trabajando!
En lo personal quiero felicitar a todos los que prestaron su tiempo en crear, llevar el grupo y realizar las transmisiones en vivo.

You think crypto is a scam because your bank works.
Living in Paris, I used to nod along when people called it a scam or a solution looking for a problem. Our transfers are instant. Our currency holds its value. Our banking just works.
Then I read @VittoStack 's article, "You Think Blockchain Is a Scam Because Your Bank Works," and it named something I had been circling in my own conversations for months: we judge financial technology from the comfort of the system we happen to live inside.
Move that same person to a country where the currency loses a fifth of its value in a year, and stablecoins stop looking like speculation.
They start looking like protection.
That shift in perspective is why @Kheirabkcn, my co-founder and CTO, and I are building @safehavenmoney_ in the @dev3pack Accelerator right now.
Not for traders.
For the freelancer in Argentina who simply wants to keep what they earned.
➡️ Current roadmap: we already have a working prototype, and we would love for you to try it.
➡️ We are also looking for 10 people to shape what comes next: if you are a freelancer or solo business owner in Argentina who feels the peso problem every single month, comment or send me a message.
Your feedback will go straight into the app 😃
(Vitto Rivabella's article + prototype linked in the comments.)
