1/ Last week, 12 amazing startups graduated from Alliance’s ALL12 cohort.
These teams are building cutting-edge products across verticals like global payments, tokenized RWA assets, DeFi, DePIN, AI, and more.
In this thread, we’ll explore what they’re building 👇
2/ In the RWA space, @Villcaso is bringing US real estate on-chain and making it accessible to the world.
Before Villcaso, foreigners could only access US real estate by buying individual US homes or participating in REITs which aren’t accessible globally.
With Villcaso, foreigners now have access to broad-base US real estate through a permissionless token.
Alliance researcher @0xdjma recently published a detailed article on the tokenized real estate space and how Villcaso is able to offer its unique product.
3/ Shifting to payments, @gobanklessapp solves a huge pain point for SMEs in Africa by building Wise but with Stablecoins.
Today, GoBankless allows compliant cross-border payments for African SMEs using a network of more than 400 couriers and 49 bank branches.
This network helps SMEs convert cash to stablecoins for cross-border payments, protecting them from Swift’s predatory 20% fees and long settlement times.
DeFi Alliance and hundreds of other top builders are coming together to form Alliance, the world's first digital startup nation, to accelerate the best Web3 startups.
2) Over 300 contributors have joined the DAO and its initial round, contributing $50m.
Our contributors are talented individuals and include incredible Web3 builders that have created the core protocols of today or are building the next crop of tomorrow’s protocols:
3) We’re also joined by dozens of Web1 and Web2 builders that built some of the web’s most notable companies and applications:
