Focus on Execution ​

While a great idea is the foundation of any project, its execution holds equal, if not more, importance. We encourage individuals with early-stage ideas to join us, as our collective can help refine these concepts into fundable startup ventures.

Areas of Interest ​

We provide a nurturing environment for a plethora of tech fields. However, we encourage you to be passionate about your project. Here are some areas of interest that we think might excite you:

  • On-chain and dynamic NFTs
  • Autonomous Worlds and onchain games
  • Mathematical proofs
  • Intersection of web3 and AI tooling

Criteria for Selection ​

We prefer individuals who have a Proof of Concept (PoC) or a tangible demo of their project. This gives us confidence in your commitment and passion for your project. However, don't let this deter you. If you believe in your idea, we encourage you to apply.

How to Apply? ​

To apply, reach out to us on our Telegram channel. We will soon replace this process with a form for a more streamlined approach.
