we don't wait for regulations or policy changes to build. what we build determines the direction of policies.
some solutions are born out of necessity while some others are just for the flex of being able to create something.
one thing i find fascinating about writing code is the ability to take an abstract concept and make it visible and useable.
chain abstraction but not just in theory.
it is 'onchain', not 'on-chain'
it is 'offchain', not 'off-chain'

remember 'on-line' to 'online'?

yep, same evolution.
gm builders!

sharing the project we shipped within 2 weeks for the just concluded Onchain Summer Buildathon.

it showcases a real-world payment on a decentralized liquidity protocol. we've seen transactions go from wallet to bank in less than 15 seconds using Zap

i strongly believe there is nothing a person cannot accomplish with good graces, laser focus, and sheer determination.

where time becomes the only variable.
Real builders commit, and I just committed 9.77M $BUILD tokens to the BUILD Summer Fund. 🫡
it's all about distribution!
@macedo i'm unable to claim my build tokens because "The wallet associated with your nominations is: 0x69045fc2663d9b30f00cd985fa2d7aa54e56506a"

i've always used my farcaster wallet (chibie.eth) with build(dot)top. anyone else with similar issue?
congratulations @geeloko

our focus should be on creating value for people, not just raising capital. entrepreneurship is about solving real or perceived problems with solutions that people are willing to pay for — it’s not about chasing investors.

chase customers not investors!

imagine waking up in 2024 to find your life savings vanished because your bank went under. for many nigerians, this nightmare just became reality.

building onchain isn't a nice-to-have for africans,

it's a requirement!
heritage bank goes defunct and NDIC liquidation can only cover up to N5m (~$3.35k) of depositor's funds?

is this your cue not to hold more than N5m in a nigerian bank account?

onchain should indeed be the new normal.
let’s go!!! 🚀🚀

thanks for the immense support and inspiration for buidlers you provide @wbnns @jessepollak

@paycrest is building an open and permissionless liquidity protocol for crypto-fiat payments.
i’m so big on process.

if you say you want to signup 100 customers in a year, i’ll ask: what are you doing now to signup your first 5?

laser focus on execution while solving long-term problems.
