I disappeared for 2 months because during uncertain times, posting constantly didn’t feel right to me.

Instead, I did what founders eventually learn to do, dig in harder, support the team, solve problems, and keep building quietly in the background.

This is Dubai doing what it does best in tougher times, stepping in early, backing businesses with real support, and reinforcing confidence across the ecosystem.

It’s not just about the AED 1B, it’s about creating stability and momentum when it matters most.

[Hamdan bin Mohammed @HamdanMohammed]

Today, I chaired a meeting of The Executive Council, where we approved an AED 1 billion support package for Dubai’s business sector, to be rolled out from 1 April over the next three to six months. The measures are designed to strengthen the economy's resilience, readiness and agility. We also reviewed Dubai’s 2025 performance, with GDP rising by 5.4% to exceed AED 937 billion.
Our message is clear: Dubai remains committed to supporting individuals, families and businesses with confidence and stability. With strong institutions and deep community ties, the emirate continues to grow, turning challenges into opportunities and emerging stronger than ever.

Biggest lie I've told myself...

Most people lose money in crypto not because they’re unlucky...

but because they don’t know the difference between a rug pull and a pump & dump.

AI alone will miss things

Humans alone will miss patterns

Due diligence needs both

Everyone’s talking about AI replacing analysts

That’s why we built MoonBase as a human+AI due diligence layer, not a black box.

Machines for scale. Humans for judgment.

Rug pulls aren’t “bad luck”

They’re predictable if you know what to look for.

The easiest way to lose money in crypto?

Ignoring these 6 boring questions.

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

Confession: I got rugged… by a blockchain dating app.

Now it’s a funny story and a checklist I use before investing a dirham or a minute.

Family is the real support system.
If you’re about to build or go all-in investing, tell them the truth—because if the money dries up, they’re the ones who adjust first.

Your biggest risk in business or crypto isn’t the market. It’s you burning out.
Fresh air, Walks, Training, Breathing, Family, Friends.
Protect yourself, or the whole system fails.

Investors look at many factors when evaluating a pitch, but after pitching to both Web3 investors and institutional (Web2) investors, I’ve noticed the same three questions come up most often, regardless of the market cycle or thesis.

As a founder who gave up the 9-5, the hardest part is getting off the fence and going on all in. You need the "No backup plan" mindset and commit! #startup #founder #dubai #entrepreneur #web3 #AI #recruitment

Billions of transactions. Thousands of wallets. Endless narratives.
Most investors drown in the noise.

Moonrig filters the flood. AI brings speed. Humans bring judgment. What’s left is clarity.

We’re opening the door for analysts who want both credibility and rewards.

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

Everyone keeps saying: “AI will fix crypto. ”
The reality? AI can’t tell hype from signal.

That’s why Moonrig blends both machine precision and human credibility.
Machines catch the patterns. Analysts test the meaning. Investors get intelligence they can actually trust.

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

Moonrig is no longer just a platform. It is becoming a complete Web3 intelligence ecosystem.

Moonbase delivers hybrid AI + analyst due diligence. BUIDL helps allocate and manage portfolios with precision. HODL tracks profit, risk, and performance in real time.

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

Better results start with better sourcing.

Moonrig merges AI insights on on-chain data, tokenomics, team history, and tech architecture with the judgment of verified analysts. The AI finds the patterns. The humans add the context.

The output is not just information.

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

Moonrig exists to answer the questions that matter most before you invest or onboard a project.

Launchpads and exchanges can filter for quality and attract better deal flow. Investors can reduce risk and gain early, credible insight.

From data to action in one platform.

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

In Web3, proper vetting is not an optional step. It is the only step that matters before committing capital.

Launchpads, exchanges, and investors all need processes that separate high-potential projects from the background noise.

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

We built a dedicated platform for Web3 influencers that values connection, credibility, and fair rewards.

Benefits for KOLs:
• Early access to vetted projects
• Partnerships that match your audience
• Streamlined workflows without cold outreach

[Praveen Pinto @pwashere]

Influence matters in Web3, but only when it carries credibility.

The strongest KOL partnerships come from alignment, not vanity metrics. Moonrig connects KOLs with vetted projects that value substance over short-term hype.

This is where influence starts creating measurable imp
