Excited to announce a $5M strategic round with participation from @CBVentures @KrakenVentures @Anza_XYZ @AnagramXYZ @PythNetwork @Temporal_XYZ and a world-class team of angels to help us build a credibly neutral, privacy-preserving, and natively compliant global payments network.

We're thrilled to announce River’s acquisition of @llama, a leading protocol governance platform. From day one, we believed that empowering communities with true ownership and governance was crucial for the future of the internet. As one of Llama's early customers, we experienced firsthand how their technology transformed protocol governance and treasury management. After working closely with @HelloShreyas and @AustinGreen from the Llama team, it became clear that bringing their technology directly into River's infrastructure would create something powerful for our users. This integration means every community and space built on River can now automatically deploy their own fully on-chain DAO with robust treasury management. With tens of thousands of communities already running on Towns, Llama's governance tools will enable key stakeholders to propose, vote, and execute decisions through a secure and transparent system. This is a major step toward our vision of a user-owned and operated internet. Communities will now have unprecedented control over their governance, smart contracts, and treasury operations – all seamlessly integrated into the River protocol. Excited to put governance directly in the hands of our communities and see what they build!

Towns has acquired Llama to accelerate the future of @buildonriver governance! We met @patfives and @benrbn when we were still architecting @llama and their feedback heavily shaped our designs. They became an early customer and were always one of the first to adopt new features. Over time, it became clear that many of the biggest challenges in community building are governance problems. With this integration, the River protocol will address these problems directly and offer a native solution for protocol operations, community admin, and treasury management. I’m excited to follow the growth of @townsapp and @buildonriver and watch @benrbn team bring their vision to life

happy to say we just raised our Series A! blockchain data is hard, messy, and chaotic. We're on a mission to solve this 👇

Llama is great for all your onchain revenue operations.

Drakula used @llama to airdrop $DEGEN to 40 creators The entire payout was handled by a single action flow that featured: - A batch ERC-20 transfer from a CSV Upload - Automated conversion of @Drakulaapp usernames to addresses - @TenderlyApp tx simulation to verify recipients

Listen to me chat with @Tanner_Gesek about what we're building at @llama to help progress smart contract governance for our industry's most critical protocols

We finally have the tech to build unstoppable internet-native orgs and it's been awesome watching the @hntlabs team perfect the details to realize this vision. I'm proud that @llama can play a role in powering this product and protocol. It has one of the most innovative governance models in the space.

1/ Introducing Sphinx: A DevOps platform for deploying and managing smart contracts, built for Foundry users. We've raised $2M from @archetypevc, @nascentxyz, and @VoltCapital to bring DevOps to web3. Details on how to sign up at the end of the thread👇

We've been running some community ownership experiments using @llama and the results have been very interesting so far Excited about what the Llama team is building - It's clear that there is so much white space outside of token-weighted governance Will share more soon

Delighted to be working with @llama @AustinGreen and @HelloShreyas have been grinding through the bear market to help communities and DAOs and treasuries be more effective and transparent while staying decentralized.

Most of the "governance" tooling out there was made by people who have never actually worked for a project/DAO @HelloShreyas and @AustinGreen did things the hard way: they first started by working for projects to figure out what pain-points they have, and then they built a product that solves those pain-points Excited to support them and @llama

Super excited to finally announce our $6M fundraise at @llama!! We’ve built a full stack platform that rethinks from the ground up how onchain protocols and organizations should be managed, governed and scaled.

Anyone who's working with @AustinGreen and the @llama team is lucky

Excited to see @llama is now officially launched! It was a pleasure collaborating with this awesome team. Wishing you lots of success @AustinGreen @HelloShreyas 🚀

extremely grateful to have been able to work with the @llama team over the last year and build truly innovative products in the governance space 🌱

Llama is a great product for anyone looking to manage access control, roles, and permissions on-chain. I'd recommend teams actively managing smart contract systems look into it.

huge congrats to @AustinGreen and @HelloShreyas at @llama on announcing their $6m seed round over the last two years, i have witnessed them diligently obsess over on-chain governance and access management control by working side-by-side with the leading protocols happy to be a small supporter

Austin/Shreyas have developed Llama in a feedback loop with users from the beginning. They have equal parts vision (building for onchain organizations) and pragmatism (solving the ux problems that exist today). Honored to be a small supporter.
