If you’re shipping in this ecosystem and want a clean film of what you’re building, I’ll shoot it. Or if you need advice on how to tell your hackathon product story feel free to approach me! Thank you @GuavaGlobal & @StellarOrg for making this happen. Stellar backed me with a grant so I could show up, film, and tell builder stories.

Coming to breakpoint in london?! time to book your bespoke videography studio today!
Won 2 bounties at @SolanaSummitOrg Germany. Genuinely honoured to be picked but the real story is how @SuperteamDE ran this. Instead of paying some KOL to phone it in, they opened content bounties and let creators compete. Interviews, panel write-ups, sentiment reports, event films. Real coverage with real prizes attached, actual innovative content happened. And that's the magic when there's an actual bar, slop stops being a viable strategy. Nobody cares about your montage at the venue. Great, you were there. What does that do for the organisers & sponsors? For the people who couldn't make it? Nothing. Interviews with builders, reporting the sentiment on the ground, breaking down the talks that's what the ecosystem actually needs. I've been saying this for ages. I wrote up panels so the alpha didn't die in the room, plus video coverage of the day itself. And I wasn't the only one loads of talented people delivered. Best part? Smaller creators who grind hard every single day showed up, shipped, and got rewarded. Not for their follower count. For their work. There were some amazing humans that deserved the W's. The Superteam Germany executed this with perfection with encouraging all creators to support posts and the team reposted and uplifted peoples content. this then reached event more people leading to a cascading event. The KOL shithousery is dead. Your pfp means nothing. People want content that teaches them something. @SuperteamDE executed this top notch and every event should copy it. It's fine to copy something that works when the whole ecosystem wins. Breakpoint, this is your opening. Run this model and CT is yours for weeks, not a weekend. @SuperteamUK I'd love to make some magic in London. Let's talk. And to the brands heading into the next run of events: I'm opening up collabs now. Interviews, panel coverage, same-day films, the lot. Calendar's filling fast get booked in before it's too late. DMs open.

The conversation around the Agentic Economy is shifting from theory to infrastructure Last week at @eth_milano , our CRO @Ludovico__Rossi took the Main Stage to tackle the hardest question in agentic finance: authorization. While autonomous agents can easily execute payments for compute or data, proving they are authorized to interact with regulated financial instruments is a different challenge. For tokenized funds, private credit, and treasuries, compliance and mandate eligibility cannot be assumed. Thank you to everyone who joined the panel and connected with us at the Museo Nazionale Scienza e Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci. The infrastructure where autonomous agents meet regulated finance is being built right now.

Who watches recap event videos? And who would post them over a month later? What a terrible marketing idea. We know we know. BUT we're reminiscing on ETHCC and all the great folks we met there, so here goes

“I didn’t plan any of this. I studied biosciences, then did a master’s in infectious diseases and immunity. After that, I started a PhD in bioengineering, working on early detection systems for airborne viruses. It sounds impressive, but the truth is I only did it because I didn’t know what else to do. I got one of the best scholarships in the country, so I thought, why not.."

making merch for your project? Check this out before you make your order!
Stop being the brand in the bin. Be the brand people get asked about. You spend thousands on a booth, flights, hotels then hand people a scratchy t-shirt with an ugly logo that goes straight in the bin. That's not marketing!! Spoke to Julien CEO @Broidr_Merch and he said cheap merch is an expense, Good merch is an investment. If someone wears it and gets asked about it, that's visibility you can't buy with ads. Everyone does the same t-shirts and tote bags. Be different. Embossed hoodies, retailer-quality pieces, stuff people actually want to wear. Your merch is the first physical thing someone touches from your brand if it feels like a rag, that's what they think of your project.

During ETHCC I spoke to @Lahannin, Product Marketing Lead at @Trezor. We broke down why a hardware wallet without a screen isn't a hardware wallet, what clear signing actually means, and the 5 security practices everyone in crypto should follow. jump straight to: 0:00 - Intro & why security matters: if you don't own your keys, you don't own your crypto 0:40 - The biggest issue: people still think hardware wallets are hard to use 1:28 - What makes Trezor different? 4 things no other wallet can say 2:22 - Innovation: BIP39, SLIP39 multi-share backup & quantum-resistant algorithms on Safe 7 2:45 - The screen problem: signing transactions you can't actually see 3:26 - Why a hardware wallet without a screen isn't really a hardware wallet 3:49 - What is clear signing? No more blind-signing random hex codes 4:58 - Lauri's 5 best practices for hardware wallet security 6:13 - Final message: if you hold more than you're willing to lose, get a hardware wallet
