This is PAT, a Solana-based offline payment system. You can reserve funds for offline spending. Sign PaymentIntents to the receiver when they lose connectivity. The receiver can scan the generated QR code or copy a payload to settle online. The sleek UI is all @jackdotsol_
I just completed my first @solana app 🥹 Now testing, tweaking, and improving the UI. I’m so proud of myself. 🥹😂

It's always: "Peter Obi is stingy" "Peter Obi doesn't know how to play the political game" "Peter Obi is too weak to be a president" It's never: "Peter Obi is corrupt". "Peter Obi mismanaged funds". That's a huge flex. Go and get your PVC, you know what to do. ✌🏼

I added MCP to @styleslibrary_. Now your AI coding assistant can search real website designs, inspect screenshots, and read colors, typography, spacing, and design systems. No more explaining every visual detail from scratch. Connect it to your AI tool and give it better references while you build. styleslibrary.site

Your next project doesn’t need a 2-week payment integration Install the Bachs SDK. Wire up your checkout. Start getting paid. We’ve done the work to make it that simple Now go ship something🥂

Broda Shaggi spent 4 months in a Nigerian hospital after being hit by a stray bullet, but couldn’t get the replacement surgery he needed. He travelled to Dubai and got it done in less than a week. Nigerian healthcare has a LONG way to go. 💔

I really need to get used to making decisions without overthinking the possible outcomes. worst case scenario, I get a negative response, best case scenario, it changes my life.

After my engagements in Manchester, I honoured another impromptu engagement in Birmingham, UK, with a group of Nigerians having their annual general meeting. Our discussions centered on achieving our collective purpose of building a New Nigeria that works for all, which is centered on tackling corruption and electing competent leaders with capacity, character, compassion and commitment, to unite, secure, and move the nation from consumption to production. A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

Building Brimble is the hardest thing i've done in my life and to be honest I am kind of suprised to see it's still standing, it's so crazy because we don't support local builders enough and if it's in S.F it's the other way round 1) You get constantly compared to vercel/railway and it's sad because if you want to get people in this space to use it to you need to ship features to the quality they have already set (either same quality or you go higher) 2) After shipping almost the same quality, local users here still force you to make decisions by cutting cost of your product, just because you want them to use it and at the end of the day, you still get compared and you even have no choice. 3) I and abraham have been constantly bootstrapping the product for the last 4 years, so we only scale on demand. We don't have the luxury to throw money into compute unncessarily. 4) There were different iterations of the product just to get PMF, the directions changed about 2-3 times between the years. 5) oh fine, "enterprise" has the money. But at the same time, you need a good amount of money to get the licenses to support enterprise and at the same time, some enterprise will look down on you especially when it's just 2 engineers managing the product, ever since we got the idea in 2022. You do performance and security audits yourself, you need to be extremely stable (just with a team of 2 and after all that, you still get compared. It's very much fine, but nobody gives a damn) 6) Brimble literally has everything (databases, sandboxes, fullstack deployments, autoscaling, static outbound ips e.t.c). Strived to succeed 7) You are also trying to pitch to investors, in a case where some of them don't have a clue or the nuances involved in what you are building. The best everyone has to do is support local products, supporting local products even gives you as a user a ton of advantage. You control the type of features you want, the prices is very affordable for you, you'd get the maximum support you need without having to send emails or wait for 3 business days to get feedbacks. A few angels really believes in the vision and fingers crossed, really love it. But at the end of the day, it still seems you aren't good enough for people to use you. I'm extremely grateful for people that took all of these out of their mind to actually support us in terms of using the product end to end. Sharing reasonable feedbacks and also sticking around even when it had issues. If i have the opportunity to do this again, i would peacefully decline.

Is your business outgrowing your manual tracking tools? 👇 If your team is still managing daily operations out of paper notebooks, chaotic spreadsheets, or messy WhatsApp chats, you are losing valuable time and money.

Whenever my inner voice tries to discourage me from building something because someone else has already done it, I remind myself that there are over 200 fintech companies in Nigeria, and they all have their own customers. Stop procrastinating. Build and launch that idea.
“someone already built that” your town has 14 pizza places. you’ll be okay.

Okay, I’ve seen some misunderstandings about Bachs’ compliance. I work on the compliance engine and related controls. We make verification easier with clear requirements, guided tasks and visible progress, backed by identity checks and payment access controls.
Paystack, Flutterwave are losing the new Nigerian market to a New Player…
