@StephNass Vc map

The first time I raised, I built spreadsheet with investor names. Now, I have something 10x better: Building an investor list is smart. Every great founder I know has a list of some kind. But manually checking if each investor actually deploys capital in your stage, vertical, and geography? It can take hours. And as a founder, you’re busy. So we came up with a better idea: OpenMap. A visual directory of 16,000+ VCs, angels, and family offices worldwide. Think of it as Google Maps for Venture Capital. Just search by city, stage, or vertical and it will: 1: Show you investors actively looking for deals 2: Find warm intros through your LinkedIn and Gmail connections 3: Let you submit your deck directly to investors who match your criteria Instead of spending weeks building a list from scratch, you get a live, searchable map of 16,000+ investors in seconds. Like + Comment "VC map" for free access I’ll send you a DM with the link. PS - If you're a VC, you should be on this map. If you're a founder, you need to know this map.

Tired of Substrate being a "black box"? I wanted to see exactly how consensus works under the hood. Read the full technical breakdown of my post on the Polkadot Forum:forum.polkadot.network/t/the-anatomy-… @polkadot @paritytech

@filippoweb3 @Web3foundation All the best filippo 🫂

After an incredible journey at @Web3foundation and Polkadot, I am now taking time off to reset before the next chapter. I am grateful for the experiences, the challenges, and the people who made it memorable 🙏 I am excited for what comes next and I will share more in due time 🙂

@Taryl_Ogle AFC

We connect African founders to VC's and pre-seed funding. But that's a members-only perk. Right now we're opening access to a £25k–£100k accelerator backed by a $50M fund exclusively for African Founders Community. members. Comment "AFC" and I'll send you the link to join.

The winners of the Polkadot Solidity Hackathon co-organised by @openguildwtf and @Web3Foundation have been announced. Some of the winning projects are DOT Pixel, a collaborative on-chain pixel art platform (EVM Track), CoreDEX, a coretime derivatives protocol (PVM Track), and Hyperway, a decentralized AI compute marketplace (@OpenZeppelin Track). Well done to all the builders 👏

The moment is here. Midnight is live. Welcome to the era of privacy by default, and disclosure by choice. Read the full announcement article 👇

Every blockchain eventually hits the same problem of state bloat. Applications want to publish data on-chain… but permanent storage is expensive and unnecessary for most use cases, and, ofc, not everything needs to exist forever. This problem becomes especially prevalent when building fully on-chain applications with rich media that aim to provide users with an experience on par with what they are used to in their current apps. Bulletin Chain introduces ephemeral storage for Polkadot, where data is available long enough for verification and usage, then automatically removed to create a cleaner chain, lower costs, and enable builders to create new classes of applications. Let’s dive in 🥽

@olanetsoft Happy birthday 🥳

@keeganquigley_ All in best in your next adventure 🤗

@amarifields_ Would love to be involved

would anyone be interested in a group chat for founders trying to fundraise to share tips, resources, and what is actually working comment below if you would join

@Brent_Fulfer SPRINT

Web3 founders get robbed by the accelerator model. 5–8% equity. 3–6 months. Generic advice. A demo day where 90% of the "investors" are other founders. Meanwhile AI founders have YC, a16z speedrun, Sequoia Arc — programs that actually move the needle. Web3? You get a hoodie and a Telegram group. We got tired of watching good founders get fleeced. So we built something different. 30 days. 0% equity. 20+ warm investor intros. Full deck rewrite. Demo day slot. $200k+ in credits. We're taking 5 founders this cohort. Comment or DM me "SPRINT" if you're raising in 2026 and done wasting time.

@NayrhitB @SusquehannaVC @LightspeedIndia @BCapitalGroup @beenextVC @sparrowcapvc @2point2club Deck

The exact pitch deck that helped us raise a $9M Seed Round copy whatever you want VCs that invested: → @SusquehannaVC (led) → @LightspeedIndia → @BCapitalGroup → Seaborne Capital → @beenextVC → @sparrowcapvc → @2point2club joined. fundraising is hard enough without guessing what investors want to see. so - I'm making our deck public. if you're raising right now, take it and make it yours. Reply 'deck' + follow (so I can DM it over)
