We have had several conversations about the state of Africa's products.
Recent data have proven that Africa is the region with the lowest production - consumer ratio in terms of SAAS such as products with recurring payment systems and other aspects of the wider tech industry.
And there are various reasons for that. So many to point at and argue about.
But @ProjectSinan mission has always been to work out ways in spite of those challenges to help products in the African Market grow and shed more light on the real stories that could lead to honest conversations and ultimately, positive results.
The necessity might have been born out of past grievances but the mission nonetheless is important.
We haven't strayed from that...🧭
Solana in four charts:
1. Solana apps generated $68M in revenue in May, up 16% MoM.
2. Collectible marketplace & gacha @collectorcrypt reached $9M in monthly revenue (an ATH).
3. Tokenized asset volumes hit a new ATH in May at over $1.1B, with the majority coming from tokenized equities.
4. Stablecoin supply rose 2% MoM in May. @Ethena's USDe grew to over $500M in supply after launching mid-May.
Solana is permissionless by design, but the infrastructure it runs on is increasingly in the hands of private companies.
At our summit we will discuss about: "Public Chain, Private Stack: Who Controls Solana's Infrastructure?"
This debate asks the uncomfortable question: if a handful of players control the stack, how decentralized is Solana really?

You can now build onchain subscription & budgeting products on @solana:
- Give an AI agent budget and let it spend freely within your constraints
- Tiered subscription billing
- Recurring payroll
Feature parity with tradfi payment models is here for stablecoins.
Who will build onchain Gusto or Ramp or Stripe?
There’s only one way out:
Ship through the pain. Let your fingers bleed.
There’s too much to do. The world deserves a better financial system. The world deserves Solana.

Last time we at #teamMycelium said we'd show you @Qvac's stack working, or show you where it broke.
We are not going to read you numbers off a slide or docs, instead we will be running commands
So read on...
1. First question from Day 1: can on-device inference actually feel like a tool, not a demo?
Watch.
One of the most common questions we get from founders in the SuperteamNG community is:
“We’ve built the product. How do we get users?”
‘GTM School’ is our attempt to answer that question.
Whether you’re building a fintech, consumer app, AI product, infrastructure tool, or onchain application, understanding growth is no longer optional.
Join @A_Feranmi, Director of Growth at Timon, for a practical deep dive into what it takes to acquire users, create demand, and build sustainable growth loops.
🗓️: Monday, June 8th - Saturday, June 13th
⏰: 5pm - 7:15pm WAT
📍: SuperteamNG Product Guild
Building a great product is only half the battle. The other half is distribution.
Too many Nigerian founders on Solana learn growth through expensive trial and error.
And that’s why we’re excited to have Feranmi, Director of Growth at Timon, join us for the first edition of GTM School.
At GTM School, we’re bringing operators and strategists who have been in the trenches to share practical lessons on taking products to market.
Over six days, we’ll explore the fundamentals of go-to-market strategy, growth systems, user acquisition, positioning, community-led growth, partnerships, retention, and what it takes to turn a product people like into a product people actually use.
Whether you’re a founder, marketer, growth operator, community builder, or simply looking to understand how successful products scale, this is one session you don’t want to miss.
See you at GTM School 🚀
