.@pigeon_hq has officially reached Goa 🐦 Ready to pitch, build, and ship at the AlgoBharat Hack Series. Let's make it count. @Algo_Bharat @algodevs

Pitching has started… Teams are stepping up, sharing ideas, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with x402. Let’s see what gets built. 👀 #x402

The result of months of hard work showed up in yesterday’s semifinal round of AlgoBharat Hack Series 3.0. All 31 remaining teams gave it there all in three rounds of intense judging — business use case, technical review, project scalability. So many great solutions, but only the top ten move on to the grand finale at @Algorand India Dev Retreat. Stay tuned to see who will be on the stage tomorrow. 🚀

“A few crypto-decades ago, the Algorand powers-that-be decided to celebrate Algorand’s Birthday on June 19th. That was the day of the Dutch Auction, through which the ALGO token was first distributed to the broader public, so it was certainly a milestone date. [...]

7 years since #Algorand Block 0! Lucky birthday #7 is as good a time as any to push a little news & some new programs out the door. You ready? We are! Stay tuned in the days ahead! 🤠

I made the anniversary NFT. It will be available for free to: - anyone who's ever bought or claimed one from the site before - anyone who is on the site in ~6 hours (aka midnight UTC) Heads up: the midnight UTC drop now requires you to connect your wallet. I changed how the claims are made, and there is now a smart contract that validates a signature that includes your address. These token signatures are only generated at midnight UTC, so be connected. Whitelist people don't need to be there. One claim if you're both midnight attendee and WL. Whitelist and website links below
