MesoReef DAO 🌊🪸🐠✨

@PollenLabs_ and @MesoReefDAO have joined forces to scale blockchain for DeSci and coral reef conservation, improving coordination and making DeSci a public good. 🌊🪸🧬🐠✨ Supported by the @Optimism Collective. Join our AMA & Showcase with @Chia_Tea and @Cypherpunkfish1. Agenda: Intro, Updates, Reef Regen Showcase, and Q&As. Save the date, check-in here ➡ luma.com/no4qnja3?tk=Gu… Reef.Regen dApp: reefregen.org

The future of regenerative coral reef conservation is decentralized and on/off-chain! How can #DeSci and blockchain protect our coral reefs? Find out this Monday in a special talk with Rodo (@Cypherpunkfish1). 🪸🗺️🛰️🧬🐠✨ We are exploring new tools, global collaboration, and Web3 innovation to save our oceans. 🗓️ This Monday, May 25th, 2 pm UTC-5 📍 DM us for the link We will showcase thepolyp.xyz 💡 Hosted with @mesoreefdao @biologiauanl @Artizen @l_arrecifes @MarSustentable

WAGMI! @Cypherpunkfish1 who volunteered part-time last month at @ipecity & built a prototype of thepolyp.xyz 🪸🗺️🛰️🧬🐠✨ Big shout-out to the @ipecity family! He feels so grateful for the opportunity and already feels a sense of saudade do Brasil 🏝️🇧🇷 Obrigado!

Our Featured Guest Rodrigo Nuñez @Cypherpunkfish1 and @mariafreitasPhD together for today’s Spark Free Radicals Fridays X Space ✨

Free Radicals Fridays AMA welcomes Rodrigo Nuñez @Cypherpunkfish1 this Friday 24th 2026 at 3 PM UTC here on X. Link below, set your reminders! ✨

@AdamDraper wen us? 🌊🪸🧬🐠✨

I'm not sure I even shared about this yet. This team is relentless. This is a huge move!

This research analyzes the differentiation of cnidocysts in the sea anemone Bunodosoma cavernata, comparing free-living populations with captive specimens (2 years in culture). The study aims to determine how the culture environment affects the development of these stinging cells, essential for defense and prey capture. Daniel Fierro is the student in charge of this at @l_arrecifes. Impact on Ecosystem Restoration Beyond cellular analysis, the results are fundamental for marine biotechnology and conservation, as they enable: Optimizing Culture: Adjusting laboratory protocols to ensure organisms retain their natural biological capabilities. Reef Restoration: Extrapolating these findings to improve survival of key species in coral reintroduction and restoration programs. Ecological Success: Ensuring "seeded" organisms on the reef have a functional cnidocyst arsenal to compete and survive in the wild. Cnidocyst differentiation is studied in the sea anemone Bunodosoma cavernata to compare free-living vs. captive specimens. The goal is to understand how culture affects their defense and hunting mechanisms, aiming to optimize reef restoration. Key Impact: Diagnosis: Assess whether captivity weakens their survival capacity. Application: Enhance success of species reintroduction in coral recovery programs.

The Startup Society Conference just started. I’m currently volunteering, building, and connecting dots in @ipecity! A call to all DeSci builders, exploring and eager to create synergies in villages. Science needs to be a public good in Brasil! 🌊🏝️🇧🇷⛓️🧬🪸🐠🧜‍♂️

🚨 Exciting news! @MesoReefDAO just got highlighted in Coral Matters Current Issue (page 23)! 🪸 Huge thanks to @reef_research and Stuart for spotlighting our exploration and early prototypes! Dive in: thecoralreefresearchhub.com/wp-content/upl…

This month, we have been coordinating and assisting with some actions within the Cozumel Coral Conservatory. A big shout-out to the teams of @l_arrecifes, @waveofchange, @cozumelcoral, @SandDollarSport, and @LivingSeaSculpt, especially @a_andresmg, German, Colleen, Danirel, Quique, Gisselle, Mar, Mario, Julieta, and Becca 🌊🪸🧬🐠✨ 📷: @Cypherpunkfish1

@kennyistyping @EthereumDenver @PublicProof

my long thoughts on @EthereumDenver - hugely grateful to @PublicProof for being my sherpa as a first-timer, I don't think I could've asked for a more seamless intro experience - I got everything out of it that I wanted and more, so I really don't understand the generic complaints I've seen granted, it was my first time, and it could've legitimately been much better other years, but the event seemed well run, the side events were plentiful, and there was always someone interesting to talk to - highlight of the week was the @yearnfi dodgeball event organized by @justalexty, @CupOJoseph, and the @NeriteOrg team obviously dodgeball was fun, but I also stumbled into a side event that @jb87ua was running in parallel for @DeSciWorld + @bonfiresai I learned about @MesoReefDAO, @JupiterBlock, other DeSci/regen/governance initiatives, and ended up giving a presentation about how @poidhxyz social bounties can use crypto to incentivize IRL actions it was legitimately the best talk I've ever given on poidh, was recorded via Bonfires, and I now have a ton of leads to chase down for potential collaborations oh and at the end @scupytrooples walked in + gave a talk on Alchemix + I connected with @BlockEnthusiast to nerd out about DAO governance tech I couldn't have asked for a better spontaneous collection of people - my biggest takeaway: there is so much energy within the crypto community to get shit done with this tech via innovations in human coordination, and poidh can be a key tool for that goal if I educate people properly on the potential for social bounties the majority of the attention is on finance/gambling/speculation, but a massive desire to move the real world is hiding under the surface when I explain poidh's unique properties in person, I see the lightbulb go off for people because they've been looking for something to be excited about the market is there if we can figure out distribution

MesoReef DAO pioneering coral reef research on multiple fronts, now they're using Bonfires for: - research - community engagement - funding strategies Another flame is lit 🔥

Big shoutout to DeSci Reimagined this 2026!

@AdamDraper @BoostVC WAGMI!

Biggest difference between @BoostVC and everyone else: We believe in magic.
