Just coming to read this masterclass. As someone who grew up selling "provision" with my mum, I saw this play out.
We had many suppliers who supplies us and come back for their money, still see this play out with a number of stores around.
Also discovered that majority of big distributors for pet drinks have "marketers" assigned to them by the regional offices, these marketers go out to look for other wholesalers and offer them discount and some times credit for buying full trucks, half trucks or some good amount of pallets in order to help the distributor increase their own sales and meet their target.

We've been quiet.
Here's why.
Since 2023, founders who came through AyaHQ have processed $5M+ in transactions. $200K+ in revenue.
10 named companies moving real money across Africa.
Against $500K deployed.
That's a 10x multiplier, built by African builders most of the world has never heard of.

Every founder dreams of hearing one sentence: "We're in."
But before an investor says yes, they've already asked and answered hundreds of questions in their mind.
What makes one startup irresistible while another gets ignored? Why do some founders raise millions with ease while others struggle to get a second meeting?
At the Olorire Founders Retreat, @Ssaasquatch will pull back the curtain.
An investment banker and seasoned angel investor, Dalu has spent years evaluating businesses, spotting opportunities, and backing founders with the potential to build category-defining companies.
In this session, he'll reveal exactly what angel investors look for before they write a cheque from founder psychology and market size to traction, business models, and the subtle signals that separate investable startups from everyone else.
If you're building a company you want investors to believe in, this is one conversation you cannot afford to miss.
Today, we’re officially launching @theblock_hive.. newest co-working and blockchain innovation hub in🇳🇬🔥!
Opening with a private launch mixer today & access to general public kickoff from 5th July, come visit and explore!
One block, Endless Possibilities🤍🫡

🚨ANTHROPIC CEO: OPEN SOURCE AI IS GETTING DANGEROUS
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei told lawmakers that open-source AI is moving down a “very dangerous path.”
His warns that once powerful models are released openly, companies lose the ability to monitor misuse, revoke access, or update safety guardrails.
For a while now, I have been quietly building something I think matters.
Blockchain has come far. It moved money without banks. It let strangers agree on things without trusting each other. And that’s not small.
But if you actually use this stuff every day, you feel where it bends. You pick a chain, you marry a language. Solidity here, Move there, Rust somewhere else. Migrate and you start from scratch. Security often feels like an afterthought until something breaks. Decentralization at the core is questionable on most chains once you actually look. And every new chain that ships seems to deepen the fragmentation, with most of the tools that move assets between them being centralized bridges sitting on multisigs.
That is why we are building Pyde(@pydenet )
Pyde supports multiple languages for its smart-contracts by default, so you can write your contracts in Rust, Go, AssemblyScript, or C, compile to WebAssembly, and ship, no forced rewrites the next time you move chains. Security comes on by default too, not as something you opt into later, with FALCON-512 signatures under the hood, Kyber-768 threshold decryption, an encrypted mempool whenever you want MEV defense, and reentrancy guarded out of the box unless you explicitly turn it off. Decentralization is taken seriously at the validator layer, with equal-power voting where one validator gets one vote, not stake-weighted plutocracy, and anyone meeting spec can run a node, or even run a parachain. Parachains give apps their own rails inside Pyde, so workloads stay isolated and apps can talk to each other without leaning on external bridges. And v1 already reserves the surface for session keys and programmable accounts, which ship in v2, so wallets can finally stop asking you to sign every single click.
Pyde fixed the gaps above, natively, without patches.
So if you have a laptop, congrats, you are a potential validator once we’ve launched a public testnet. Coming up at the soonest.
Auditing cross-chain tech is no easy task. especially with a project like @PushChain where there are so many complex moving parts and components that interface with not just one but almost every major EVM and non-EVM chains.
Also as an industry, we’ve lately taken a barrage of hits from hacks, so we had to be extra careful in ensuring our tech is tested and reviewed by the best in the game. Hence we partnered with @hackenclub, the best team in the business.
Next step: Mainnet
Push Chain has successfully completed its security audit with @hackenclub.
By the numbers:
- Zero critical-severity findings were identified
- 300 hours of audit work
- 3 smart contracts and full chain audit completed
- $100,000 bug bounty launching soon
Held the second alumni townhall meeting today, and one of our alumni told @Ebunayo08 “Thank you for never waiting to get to the bridge before you started crossing it.”
A perfect description of someone who creates pathways before they exist.
Maybe that’s why we’re called Web3Bridge. ❤️
We decided to make @Web3Bridge alumni townhall a 2-day event to make room for those who are able to attend on either of the days.
Today again, we had an interesting time catching up alumni from cohort 3-14!
Next month, we will switch to proper Web3bridge townhall design of gists and talks, we will also be discussing progress
Held the first @Web3Bridge alumni townhall today, the meeting had alumni from cohort III to XIV of Web3bridge.
We took the time to introduce everyone (their name and cohort), share updates from Web3bridge since the last time they were around, and we share the future plans for Web3bridge (we will share with you too soon).
Looking forward to next month's meeting! Missed this as an alumni? Look out for email from us
