3 days. 1 ecosystem. 1 unforgettable experience. This year’s Solana Summit Nigeria was bigger, more regional, and more representative of how far the ecosystem has come. Solana products took centre stage, new partnerships were announced, and builders had the opportunity to put their ideas and businesses in front of the ecosystem.

Builders showed up, ideas flew, pitches got sharper, and new connections were made. From pitches to conversations that could turn into the next big collaboration, the Solana Builders’ Tour brought the South East ecosystem together in Enugu. The tour wrapped up with practical insights for Solana Crypto World’s Fair hackathon builders on GTM, distribution, and scaling beyond the hackathon.

Back to “Kindly find attached” 📧 Quick stop at @blockhubafrica in Enugu for the South East edition of the Solana Builders Tour. Had a great time speaking with builders about GTM, distribution, finding their first 1,000 users, and what it takes to scale a product beyond the build phase. At @SuperteamNG, this is the work we want to keep doing: getting closer to builders, helping founders move from idea to product to distribution, and giving strong teams the support, network and opportunities they need to build products that can scale from Nigeria to the world.

an evening well spent with @superteamng pitch clinic bootcamp. @NzubeEzudo has an incredibly intelligent mind.

Africa's biggest IPO is open to anyone holding stablecoins on Solana. @Nectar_finance, homegrown at @SuperteamNG, plugs into the ~$1.6B Dangote Refinery offering via @GetEquity, starting from about seven dollars. Love to see it!

Engineering Decisions That Matter While Participating in the hackathon nitter.net/i/broadcasts/1qGoNYgeb…

What would it take to bring the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NGX) onchain? I spoke with Technext about the infrastructure, regulation and institutional partnerships required to make this happen, and why tokenisation goes far beyond putting stocks on a blockchain. We also explored Solana’s role, the opportunities for fractional ownership and global investor access, and how our work at Superteam Nigeria is laying the groundwork for internet capital markets. Whether we like it or not, the technology is already here. The bigger challenge is building the regulated market infrastructure around it. Full interview⁠ 👇🏼

Breakpoint plans just got sweeter. Zero booking fees + pay in USDC. BRiJ × Superteam Nigeria, we move 🚀

If all of this looks like Greek to you, don’t worry I’m going to make it my mission to put you guys on. For now, start by downloading @Nectar_finance. I’ll explain why soon.
