This channel is for all things Octant. Earning ETH yield, funding public goods, governance, and all things win win!

Excited for our next speaker, the media maestro and distribution whiz, Seyi Taylor.

seyitaylor.twitter is a seasoned entrepreneur and has previously scaled a media company. He’s also the founder of Snicketts, i.e. programmable coupons for modern retail brands.

Seyi will be talking about all things growth and distribution in his session this week.
It’s Marketing Week in the Accelerator! We’ve uncovered tons of insights on content + distribution, but one theme keeps popping up: Founder Brands! ™️

We really liked @jonwu take! 🔥

“The days of corporate brands being more powerful than founders are fading fast. The downside is people don’t attack the brand anymore, they attack the founder. But as founders, we’ve gotta grow a thick skin, because today’s users wanna hear from you, not just your project."
gm gm, another #Epoch5Spaces happening!

Massive value for our cohort in the Content and GTM session from @tpan today! Enough info to cover weeks of content!

Anyways, a small teaser…

“Distribution is key and one of the most important reasons for repurposing content and cross-posting on different mediums is because we all just learn differently”
⭐️⭐️⭐️ 23 sessions in. 10 left to go. We can’t believe we’re reaching the end of our accelerator program 😭💝😭

It’s been one of the most intense experiences we’ve undertaken but it’s been so so worth it. Our cohort has been heads down in founder mode (pitching, testing, growing). 📈📈📈

To celebrate this big milestone, we’re inviting you to our Demo Day.

Hear from these incredible builders, get an in-depth understanding of their growth and journey. We’ve got all that ++ a major surprise planned for that day.

gm gm if you can support Octant projects, please check out the Kiwi application!

Kiwi helps Ethereum builders find quality crypto content. From top news, essays, and products up to Dune dashboards, GitHub repos & security breach case studies. 

Our 120+ monthly curators go through hundreds of crypto sources - newsletters, podcasts, telegram channels, group chats, and so on - to provide as much signal as possible.

Kiwi has also been an OG Farcaster project since 2023. Our name comes from a Farcaster meme (you can learn the story at howtoeat.kiwi), and @timdaub.eth and I met in the Farcaster comments section :)

Our next speaker needs no introductions. She’s built one of the strongest web3 onboarding funnels and is directly responsible for making financial education and crypto accessible to women and femmes.

One of the most phenomenal builders in this space, we’re excited for a talk by Founder & CEO of /shefi, Maggie @love
Accelerator Cohort experienced an amazing session from @emilyxlai (Twitter) who dropped endless nuggets like this:

"You have to think strategically and one of the most important thing is to get your positioning super clear. Why do you deserve to exist? Who are you? What are you doing? Why are you building what you're building?"

Thank you Emily, it was a real pleasure to have you.

our BIGGEST redesign yet. Say hello to Octant 1.5 🥳🥳🥳

If you’ve been on our app, you’ll see it looks sooo much swankier. So here’s the tldr:

➡️ We’ve got a brand- new desktop UI

➡️ We’ve designed a better reporting display

➡️ An updated anti-sybil process

(we really encourage you to read the full blog for detailed updates)

💚 You asked and we delivered. A huge shoutout to all of you for the amazing feedback. Thank YOU for making time for interviews, surveys, and generously sharing your thoughts. It’s helped us drive changes forward. We’re committed to listening and making Octant better for you 💝

We’re sharing the changes in detail, our development process, and the why behind these changes.

All that and more (in the next tweet)
I’ve got the projects saved. See you Sunday 🫡
