mtndao 🗻

"Was v9 what I imagined? I would say it was the. most. epic mtndao yet." - founder, @barrett_io So many quotes in this video it was impossible to choose - every second is a must-watch. Amongst the industry's turbulence came light from the MTN: impossible to replicate. 🏔️ MTNDAO IS SPONSORED BY: 📷 @altitude @solanamobile @MetaDAOProject @ranger_finance @darkresearchai @raikucom @multicoin @triton_one

Missing @mtndao with @alex_n_kahn and @xbtmatt where we had great convos and even better builds Thanks to @barrett_io and @edgarpavlovsky for founding one of the best IRL spaces for @solana devs

It's truly an honor to have been awarded 2nd place in the @magicblock track of the @playsolana Matrix Hackathon for @timebentgame 🤍 What started as a thought during @mtndao - "rollups and provable randomness would be cool" - has taken on a life of its own - evolving into a core part of Timebent's main storyline and minigames!! Will share a deep dive on the Derby 🏇 in a coming post

@Mikkke_crypto our dms open

What if we ship @mtndao mode in Shanghai 👀

.@mtndao might be the most underrated event in all of crypto not just solana. all of crypto. spent time in salt lake city surrounded by the best builders on solana and came back a different person. here's my honest breakdown: the room: solana foundation. solana mobile. squads. metaplex. multicoin. yc. in the same building. networking couldnt be more productive it doesnt matter if you're a founder, builder, dev, BD or designer. you will definitely leave with something. the alpha sessions: yc office hours with @nemild hit different. helped sharpen the thesis on agent identity and why platforms that don't treat it as core infra won't survive. demo day: 30+ projects. 3 tracks: infra & protocol, defi & capital markets, consumer and payments with @vibhu, @edgarpavlovsky & @barrett_io live. the ones that genuinely impressed me: @avodotso @usetapestry @eatwithnomu @getpyra & @pack3dotfun. quality of builders in that room was scary good. the side events: après build by @solanafndn. guns n hotpot by @wesplit_io x @meteoraeco. open tech summit by @jacobvcrech. communities mixer ft @superteam @monkedao @LucidDrakes @MoustacheDAO by @supersimon77 . every single day was productive personal: my @solanamobile got delivered here. delivery restrictions back in asia so i thought I'd route it through the US. picking it up at mtndao of all places was a moment. also wrote and published my full yield bearing stablecoin research on solana during this trip(55k+ impressions atm). the mountains do something to your focus that nothing else ever will. the skiing: beyond the quality, this is what separates mtndao from others. it is built around utah culture. the mountains, slc, snowbird - it's more than a backdrop, it's the point. you lock in during the weekdays and ski in the weekends & something about that rhythm just unlocks a different version of you. previous years i skied. this time i picked up snowboarding and hit the blacks at snowbird. if you know snowbird blacks, you know. ppl got some banger tattoos right in the office. s/o @hnxyn_ for that. always love running into old friends. here are some new ones i made and had a great time with: @PiccoGabriele @vesper792 @naruto11eth @muse_jp_sol @nelo_66 @llegoelkelo @brazylord @jpsychedelic369 @0xMista @kenton_cooley @dlophem @PauluneMoon @0xJunebox @seminuked @nzrnrdn @Noctis0x @nynameisjeff_kb @aconfo @gumdropsteve @twentyOne2x if you missed mtndao v9, don't make the same mistake again. if you were there, what did u think abt it?

yo! haven’t been posting in a while — few updates: Came back from a fun & productive month @mtndao 🏔️ Launched $ZEC p2p off-ramp on loofta.xyz w/ @peerxyz My friends are getting bombed in Lebanon 🇱🇧 Crypto is more retarded than ever Bullish on AI 🦞

SOLANA STORIES @solana came by @mtndao this month and asked one simple question: What makes mtndao special?

mtndao v9 was a blur. In a dreadful bear market, the energy at mtndao turned inward: and created a velocity in-person we've never seen before. This month, we'll be reliving February through a MTN of content we have yet to share. UP FIRST: Welcome to @altitude week. mtndao v9 might be over, but your velocity? It's here to stay. 🏔️ MTNDAO IS SPONSORED BY: 🏔️ @altitude @solanamobile @MetaDAOProject @ranger_finance @darkresearchai @raikucom @multicoin @triton_one

Thanks for having us at Demo Day! It was an honor to present at @mtndao v9 — and incredible to see the support from @SolanaFndn @SolanaEvents! We’re building mortgage markets onchain. And we’re just getting started. Check out the full presentation 👇

If you blinked, you missed three pitches. That was Solana Demo Day at @mtndao

“Ship as fast as you can.” @SolanaInstitute at @mtndao v9. Solana is for builders. Solana Policy Institute helps builders go faster. From connections to counsel, SPI helps founders get past regulatory friction and keep shipping. They are fighting for a future where Solana builders can build better products, move faster, and reach escape velocity. Thanks for the invaluable insights!

We had 5 minutes at @mtndao @solana Demo Day. We pitched scaling SharkPool into the institutional gateway for Solana staking, powered by university validators. Instead of extracting yield from the network, we redirect it to the next generation of builders.

Redeemable Gold. On Solana. 1:1. We just demoed Obsidian at MTN DAO Demo Day live to the Solana entire ecosystem. Stake, lend, borrow against 1:1 backed physical Goldbacks. Gold at lightning speed. ⚡️ BLKW3B

We’ve spent countless hours in the office, skipping breaks, working through weekends, and pushing past the limits of exhaustion. I’d be lying if I said we didn't have doubts. "Are we building the right product? Are we doing this correctly?" From technical fights to figuring out how to launch simultaneously on Seeker, Android, and iOS, the journey was intense. But that’s where the magic happens. A huge shoutout to @solanamobile for the unwavering support. You helped us solve our tech issues, reach a wider audience on X, and even geared up the whole team with Seekers to test our @wesplit_io in the best conditions ever 🫶🏻 I’ve learned the ultimate lesson: Don’t quit. Even when you’re exhausted, even when you want to break everything. That’s when you find out what you’re made of. Huge thanks to the people who believed in us when we were just a vision: @GuiBibeau : Thank you for the mentorship and for guiding us through this crazy ecosystem. @ghostofharvard from @SharkPoolSol : For incubating us and taking a bet on us from day one. @kenton_cooley @jpsychedelic369 : For showing us what the real life looks like. @mtndao: For this incredible experience and everything you’ve brought to our journey. @vesper792 from @MeteoraEco : you're happiness was contagious and you were always helping us pushing harder. And so many more person I can't ping everyone but I'm gratefull for each and every one of you guys 💚 @solana isn't just a blockchain; it’s a community that pushes you to go further. What’s next? Back to France to keep building 🛫

Incredible experience pitching at @mtndao in front of leaders like @vibhu. truly grateful for the opportunity, @barrett_io and @edgarpavlovsky

it's not everyday you get a primer on all things pinocchio, abi v2, and various simd's directly from @0x_febo yet another w at @mtndao

Every @mtndao demo in one thread

These are the complete live demo clips of the three Arcium ecosystem teams that pitched @mtndao demo day. It’s good to see products that use @Arcium’s technology as one of their core infrastructure. <accelerate>🗻☂️ Live demo from: @anon0mesh

@GuiBibeau thank you for coming good ser!

Leaving the mountain @mtndao Thanks for all the memories !

Pitching on @mtndao demo day was an amazing experience! Thank you to our hosts @edgarpavlovsky, @barrett_io & @vibhu Out here doing things that are only possible on @solana 🛍️
