Helium is one of the most underhyped things in blockchain
There are so many projects that lack real utility and
@helium
is out here providing a brilliant use case in the power of blockchain
Get yourself a cofounder who passes you challah through an uber window so that you don’t go hungry on your Helium IoT deployment trip to Kentucky

We’re building infrastructure for tangible assets starting with whisky. We store insure and authenticate all bottles in our vault then mint an NFT representing proof of ownership and authentication! We use the helium network to have real-time asset audits in our vaults. :)

Tonight on

we’ll visit with

and the innovative work happening at

and how web3 technology is improving the preservation of whisky and wine!
Last year, I was looking for a way to easily gift my father a bottle of whisky for Christmas.

Hi
@SlackHQ
high priority request:
can you please add to the Effects on a Huddle where if you all hit dolphin at the same time then they all jump together? Thanks much appreciated.
@RAnSacks
Me!! Founding a startup in web3 has completely levelled the playing field. In a world where 2% of vc funding going to female founders, web3 has enabled me to walk into pitches knowing that the men on the other side of the table can’t cast me aside for “inexperience”
So excited to be partnering with
@NeoSwap_ai
on the first ever
#RWA
Smart Auction 👊
Love working with folks like
@john_ennis_btc
on solving real world use cases on chain 🎉
1/ So much of web3 is driven by speculation as traded assets often lack real-world utility.
Speculation has bolstered infrastructure development, but it’s time for web3 to provide utility to mainstream users.
This thread highlights
@NeoSwap_ai
's partners doing just that.
I am going to be speaking at the
@SolanaConf
next week in Lisbon.
I will be talking about how
@BAXUSco
uses
@helium
for tracking but more importantly, how you can too.
Gotta love the macro/micro context switching that comes with being a founder.
Last night: 5 Year Vision + Strategy
This morning: Resizing the stroke widths of svgs
Just your daily reminder that you should keep in mind that your iPhone doubles as a tracker 🙂
Absolutely. Terrifying.
Thank you
@TechCrunch
for bringing attention to this issue.
Memecoins aside… I’d say
@solana
is really glowing up. Built through the bear and now so many significant protocols and improvements to build on top of
You need blockchain for :
Authentication — NFT certifies authenticity, traces who authenticated the asset
Ownership — NFT in your wallet represents the “receipt” of an asset
Provenance — immutable historical sales
Collectible markets are booming.
The only way to foster this growth is with
#blockchain
since it is the only way to guarantee
#authentication
and provenance for everyone to view at the same time.
Web3 platforms have traditionally catered exclusively to crypto users.
With Coinflow's innovative payment solutions, marketplaces like
@BAXUSco
have expanded their reach to non-crypto users to effortlessly engage in transactions with no cryptocurrency ownership required. 🧵⬇️
I was blown away by

this past weekend!
Meeting our users will literally never get old for me! (Sick
@BAXUSco
swag doesn't get old either)
So proud of my incredibly brilliant PhD sister
@readwriteknit
who is presenting at the Northwestern Political Theory Conference!
Very happy to see your talent being put toward more than writing all my college essays 🙃
Just got off of a dev team call with 5 people!
It feels like just yesterday that it was just me and our one part-time unpaid dev trying to figure things out 😄
I'm biased (b/c 'Tucky) - but
#ProofOfPour
might be the ultimate non-fungible experience.
@BAXUSco
cofounder
@web3princess
gives a master class on what it means to bring real "Liquidity" to a market : - )
Web3 is about so much more than NFTs:
✴️Privacy of data
✴️Bringing scarcity to the web
✴️Decentralization
and this is just the start. Is it weird that I get excited explaining this to people?!?
All these factors tied together allow
@BAXUSco
to get as close as possible to a trust-less vaulting system, which will allow these assets to exist beyond the BAXUS website, and represent value inherent in the contract and not just because we said so

Such an important message and I'm so proud to be part of the team co-sponsoring the event!
Proud to announce the

seed round!
We started with a local community, a vision, and a pitch deck.
It became a global community, an incubator, and a landmark building with a roof deck.

The best part of being a CTO is that you get to learn from all the brilliant people on your team!
