Big news out of East Africa.
4 projects from our community have been selected for the Stellar Instawards each receiving $5,000 to support continued development and prepare for the SCF @BuildOnStellar@ChamaTrust_@ide_stellar@Zyra_pays@matxchange
Four teams. Four different problems. One shared conviction that blockchain infrastructure built from inside East Africa hits differently.
This isn't just a funding milestone. It's proof that when you give African developers the right environment, tools, and support, they build things worth backing.
We're just getting started. More builders. More projects. More proof.
Congratulations to all four teams. 🔥
🎂 Happy Birthday, @HOmbima32706
Today, we celebrate the man behind the creative vision at Stellar East Africa, our Chief Designer, Hillary Ombima.
Your talent speaks for itself, but what truly sets you apart is your patience, your eye for detail, and the quiet excellence you bring to everything we create together. Stellar East Africa is better and more beautiful because of you.
Enjoy every moment of your special day, Hillary. You've more than earned it.
From all of us at the Stellar East Africa family, Happy Birthday
