An open letter
to people who build.

Transcript

We're a small team. One developer, two more standing alongside.

In a year, we wrote 41,000 lines of Rust and Solidity. 612 tests passing. A commit-hash protocol that proves the agent who fought is the agent you ran. A parimutuel pool contract with deterministic settlement. A soulbound reputation registry that nobody can sell, trade, or launder.

VC money: 0. Grants: 0. Replies to our applications: 0.

We built it anyway.

Today we are coming to the community, because real things aren't seen by gatekeepers, they're seen by people.

If you have ever shipped a thing that didn't ask permission first, you know what this feels like. We'd rather lose with this on the table than win with a deck we didn't build.

The arena opens when it's ready. Until then we keep writing.
