It's also worth noting that I'm a
1/n
Official Switch to Web3 ( Short story/long thread)
Switching fields isn't something that is new to me. I had already taken the plunge back in 2015 when I had switched from Medicine towards a hardcore technology switch.
Okay Solana community, let's try this. I thought it might be worth throwing out some positive infusion of thoughts from our side.
PS: Don't forget to check the poll at the end, in terms of Decentralised spin-off versions from Chingari-Gari ecosystem. We could help build this 1/n
Personally this has been an emotional moment, having worked on this extensively ♥️
Super excited to expand towards the

Stay tuned & congrats to the winners!
Amidst all the hype, I've picked up a few focus areas that are going to be the new market standards. One of them would certainly be Decentralised Physical Infrastructure

21/n The GARI team doesn't mess around, the killer swag got me super pumped and made me feel damn welcoming and supportive of my core strength.
Super excited to join GARIToken as the 'Lead AI and Blockchain Architect' and assemble a team of exciting buildoors.
Quite a beautiful POV and conversation enabled by
@baradwajrangan
. On a lighter note it's hard not to see it as a therapeutic session. It's highly therapeutic, especially those who want to listen to Vijay's POV and not just lamblast everything that enables their activist agenda
I'm about the enter the elevator (at the hotel, during IFFI) and out comes this clearly peeved actor. We chat. He asks if we can talk. I say I don't have a crew, so can we do a text piece? No, he says, it must be video. And this resulted
@fcompanionsouth
That was hell of a week at the SolanaHH ! Was fascinating to see what the young builders were upto at the biggest SolanaHH so far.
Also no more HH/Meetups for quite some time. Back to building 👨💻🥶

PSA: We also have a new Panda reveal - we call him, The Cyborgy 🤖
Being positive sum is the best virtue one can have in this market. It is also easier to find the 'crabs' who scoff/take shots at the misfortunes of others.
Can only hope this changes for the better in future cycles :)

#PandasAwakening
Made my first Eth NFT mint with
@huxleysaga
! Felt super pumped on being an early holder of the First issue
A thread on why the mint experience gave me a unique experience for someone who is very choosy (one can also say ...limited 😄) on aping into the NFT projects 👇
🧵
The most captivating project to me was
@ethereanslabs
! A project that
@Sir_Kedia
had opened my eyes on for quite a long time!
Had the chance to interact a great deal with Mad scientist
@toschi_eth
What they're building with Factory smart contracts is something very unique &
I feel that this is what folks need to hear or try out
If you wanna be a true builder trying to solve real problems with blockchain
DO NOT subscribe to maximalism/tribalism in Crypto!
A personal take on this probably incoherent thread, along with a few anecdotes 👇
The builder energy at
#EthDubai
was quite the spectacle, and a lot better than I had assumed to be.
It was great catching up with everyone & finally putting a face to a whole bunch of anon profiles & voices with whom I had been interacting for quite a while :)
When
@Chingari_IN
made the Web3 pivot, the value proposition was fairly simple, can you get paid for the time you consume as a value-add user/creator?
Thanks to Gari, we are able to support the dream. With a new ATH that we recently scaled in terms of # of daily Gari users
2/n
Was quite a fun pub quiz styled meetup. Fresh intuitive energy. We should do this quite often!
Got to talk about what we as a community have been building in an elite subset of the dev community
Kudos to
@shek_dev
&
@kirat_tw
for organising this
17/n Huge props to my journey, the butterfly effect & the mental energy has been largely due to Superteam who have been such a special community of builder friends who celebrate building and having fun and optimizing for happiness in Web3 (ironically true).
Be(a)st Squad
Thanks

Looking at the

I was pretty intrigued looking at some of the unique jargons
Ended up asking

for the meaning of 'Up Napa' and the response was pretty scary and humorous at the same time 🫠

The best compliment that a product/platform can get is a traction too good that key stakeholders find it hard to believe :-)
This is where the mighty verifiable Web3 metrics play a big role in due diligence. It's all verifiable data at the end of the day

When the nightingale singer
@Chinmayi
complied with the dedication request for my special one nivvyd ❤️ ! It was so kind of her !
P.S: It was courtesy the donation drive that she has been doing on Twitter. Please do…
^ Bear in mind that these are users who don't care about what is blockchain or anything about SOL. The sole focus is on user onboarding, value based retention. This is the reason we have been able to scale the numbers cumulatively on a non-custodial easy to use mobile wallet
3/n
While we largely think these are well known Product-forms in Web3 world, it's also important to grow the products along with active user feedback as opposed to launching them all at once
Upcoming Q developments
> Creator Guilds
> Decentralised Ad-Network
> Gari-Web3 Stack!
6/n
Creator Guilds
Re-imagining the concept of Axie Infinity model of Sponsor-Gamer towards a Creator centric model, where retail & reputed investors have a chance to bet on early stage content creators
Some sneak peak from the Guilds in-prod
7/n
Having interacted with quite a few knowledgeable community members, this is actually a valid point and it's a conversation we all need to have.
DePIN is not a GPT wrapper that just works on any proven usecases. Without strong market research fit and validation, it will crash
🔥GARI Network is pioneering a pilot project on
@Chingari_IN
app, with Chingari users minting a whopping 1 Million+ NFTs in under 3 weeks!

How can we help :) ?
Being a mobile first product long before SMS, we'll be glad to be a part on behalf of the Chingari & Gari ecosystem. We recently launched our own SDK too

Definitely humbling to get featured on

We're just getting started as we enter a hyper-focussed segment of such a large market
Was fortunate to attend the genesis brand event that was filled with super high quality brought together by
@akshaybd
&
@nasdaily

After having been to a number of crypto events, meetups & conferences this definitely right up there!
You know the drill!
Reach out to me on DMs if you wish to pursue the
@GariDevDAO
grant with an engaging project in Web3 Social Media. Select few projects get to be incubated within our ecosystem 🫡🔥
Additionally, If you are a student building in solana and in social media space you can also apply for developer grant of $10,000 from
@GariDevDAO
and also collaborate with
@Chingari_IN
for userbase to your project.
Here's an alpha on how Web3 ads would evolve.
To users who are tired of seeing Web2 ads?
How about reward users in real-time for using the partner products?
GARI quests are coming soon on Chingari, if you are an advertiser looking to advertise your business to the wide chingari web3 userbase (largest in the world) with native web3, DM me, we are piloting with only 20 apps to launch the quests feature soon.
vNFT Marketplace - This is probably my favourite
Bid & buy vNFTs, Bet on creators, get 10% share of their future earnings
We expect this to scale even further in Q1, with an ME version for Video NFTs

Hello Everyone 👋
As a Doctor in HealthTech for the past 7 years, I believe there's a lot I can support toward fellow Clinicians, Med-tech professionals, and enthusiasts who are looking to learn a lot about happening trends and innovations in the Healthcare industry

Over time my most favorite home-bases from 2021 were
@SuperteamDAO
(more on that slightly later) &
@OceanDAO_
where building deep tech was much appreciated.
I always liked building for problems and use-cases that were resilient for years rather than short term churns.
