"Hogwarts, it's Hammertime."

For the Project Sinan final capstone project, my teammates and I investigated how small-business owners currently handle cross-border supplier payments and what conditions would drive them to adopt stablecoins for these transactions. The decision-maker was a Solana merchant payments startup that needed to know whether to target small-business owners as an early adopter segment or start with a more formal business segment. Using a qualitative exploratory method, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 13 active small-business importers across Lagos, Abuja, Anambra, and Edo states. After 15 weeks of learning about research (read: product and market research) and using the capstone project to put into practice what we learnt, my teammates and I presented our findings and recommendations today 🥹 I cannot wait for you guys to read the entire report! I’m grateful for the experience I’ve garnered over the past 3 months. Thank you @IwalolaSobowale, for graciously teaching us and making research fun. I have learnt about research at least four times in my lifetime — in primary 5, a 300-level course, Solana Turbine, and now Project Sinan — and yours proved the most enjoyable. I’m glad our paths crossed. Thank you, @ProjectSinan for the opportunity. And to my teammates @Hogwartsofweb3 and @Forbe500, I had a swell time working with you guys. Even with the odds against us and tight time constraints, we conquered. I can’t wait to see the amazing things we all accomplish with our newfound research knowledge. It’s only up from here! And oh, I am officially a trained product and market researcher! 🤭

I'm a trained researcher. Yes! I am.

Listening to the capstone presentations from the first @ProjectSinan cohort. The sheer rigor and quality of theit research is insane. Months of work distilled perfectly. These guys have become straight killers. You definitely want them on your teams. 🧭🧭🧭

@IwalolaSobowale @ProjectSinan @RalAndrewTalks Thank you so much for how you tutored us. God bless you for us.

@Hogwartsofweb3 @ProjectSinan @RalAndrewTalks Congratulationsss!

Short answer: It's the new normal. Adapt or get left behind. Longer answer: Several roles working with products would require AI experience where you can pitch both storytelling with AI or with real life people. And AI usage is exponentially cutting across several creative mediums from Ads to Films to Animation. At this rate, credit costs will get cheaper. Models would improve. Creative roles requirements will get updated. New roles will get created. And those who will win are those who can see past the cringe rn and adapt to the times.

2 years ago, if Nigeria came up in global crypto and Solana conversations, it was usually in the context of airdrop farming. Then @SuperteamNG came along and changed the narrative, bringing founders, products, developers, hackathon winners, creatives, and companies already building profitable businesses. NectarFi is one of many outcomes of that effort, and they’ve continued to proudly represent the Superteam Nigeria community on the global stage.

@ArmstrongOfDefi @ProjectSinan Thank you.

@Hogwartsofweb3 @ProjectSinan Congratulations Hoggie

@RalAndrewTalks 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

"We are going to do primary research with over 200 particpants in mind..." *one week later "10 responses is not bad" You want to whine research work... 😆

When your target research participant passes the screener, and agrees to partake in an interview, but ghosts you when it’s time.
