.@hirechain_io turned 3 in October! We've been busy and have onboarded 100s of crypto companies who now rely on us for their hiring. August set a new record for us and it looks like October might beat *every* one of our records in one go. Very proud of the team and extremely excited to launch new products, work with incredible new partners and continue to make hiring more efficient in crypto. We're just getting started.

Why do founders choose Alliance over others? We’re backed by Founders Fund, Jump, Jane Street, Hudson River Trading, Susquehanna, and many of the sharpest investors and founders in tech and finance. Our focus is frontier tech, where finance, crypto and AI intersect. We’ve built a network designed to help our founders win. We’re not a startup factory. We’re not funding hundreds of companies per batch. We select 20–30 teams and spend our entire time working on the hardest problems we can solve. We operate our program as one unit, one family. We’re New York City first. We believe New York has a unique advantage for founders density, ambition, culture, talent, and diversity of thought. It’s a city that rewards builders and challenges out of box thinking. Less groupthink. We’ve helped our founders achieve unicorn status and win, you’ll have a strong network of alumni teams to learn from like Rain, Pendle, Debridge Kamino, USDai, Pump, Ostium, 0x and others. If you’re looking to build something that matters and want to win, apply to Alliance.

Created and assigned 4 beefy tickets for each one of my engineers related to sports markets 20 hours later and all the work is done @pumpcade engineering team ships at an unfathomable pace I can confidently say that our sports markets are one of the most fun things onchain

We are pushing hard to get sports markets live in the @pumpcade open beta. Good news on that front. As of tomorrow, we will have access to ultra realtime sports data. We'll aim to start with World Cup and MLB markets, and expand as interest grows. Sportcade.

Since we’ve started building @pumpcade, we’ve been saying it’s not like other prediction markets. This sports release will prove we weren’t kidding. The vast majority of prediction markets for sports feel like a finance product pasted on top of a sports event, but fast resolution changes what’s possible. You can build markets around moments within the game, not just the final outcome. We’ve never really had a product that let you call the next 5 minutes of a football game. Or the next 2 innings of a baseball game. Or whether the Knicks will be down by 15 after the 3rd quarter. Prediction markets that are settled instantly open up a whole new set of questions. For example: “Will Steph Curry hit over 4 threes in the next 5 minutes?” “Will the Phillies hit a grand slam in the next 3 innings?” “Will there be a red card in regulation?” Those are the kinds of things that fast resolution make possible. But the bigger idea is not to just build a better prediction market, it’s making something people would open even if they weren’t interested in the markets. Good context, good visuals, and keeps you in the action. Which sport should we tackle first?

Pumpcade has officially entered Open Testnet Beta During beta, we will be: 1. Stress testing our infrastructure 2. Integrating our new world class parimutuel protocol 3. Building a best in class experience Report bugs/feedback using the chat button cade.market

A lot of thought goes into making Pumpcade feel like a degen-friendly, internet-native schizo app. That is what makes the app feel native to the internet instead of another sterile trading terminal. But underneath that, we think ultra-short-duration markets are an underexplored primitive. Pumpcade markets let users express bounded, discrete views on very short windows of time. Not: "Will BTC go up eventually?" More like: "Will this move happen in the next minute?" That distinction matters. The internet moves in bursts. Attention moves in bursts. Volatility moves in bursts. You see this in long-term prediction markets all the time: A strong candidate gives a bad speech. Odds swing violently. Then the market cools off and mean-reverts. The long-term thesis may not have changed, but the short-term dislocation was real, which is where Pumpcade gets interesting. There are already financial tools for holding a long-term thesis - Pumpcade lets you trade the violent path inside that thesis. The consumer app looks chaotic because the internet is chaotic. That is by design! But the primitive underneath is serious: Fast, bounded, instantly resolved markets for internet-speed outcomes.

pumpcade focusing on deflationary tokenomics built around platform activity, all usage metrics will directly benefit the token the concerns around the equity / token split was misguided, team wanted *more* of the token because they intend it to be core part of platform launch

We are hiring a Growth Lead at @pumpcade This is a role for someone that wants to stand up, operate, and OWN growth from zero at a well funded Prediction Market company. (We are VERY partial to applicants with prior experience at Casinos/Sportsbooks) share.hirechain.io/apply/2vj…

Our mainnet audit begins on Monday, and it's scheduled to take 12 days. The Open Beta will be our previous iteration of the protocol, as well as a refreshed version of the UI. In the background, while open beta is live, we will be integrating the new UX & protocol for mainnet.

We've raised over 1 million dollars in tokens via ACE so far.

I spent 5 months banging my head against the wall pitching VCs for them to usually just reject my product outright due to the live token. Fast forward, and we've raised $6M across 2 rounds in the span of 12 days from some of the most powerful VCs in the industry. A live token should not stop you. If your product is good, the necessary venture capital is not off the table. A lot of VCs don't understand this yet, but I believe that with @pumpcade we will rewrite the playbook on this. Launching $PUMPCADE allowed me to quit my job and bootstrap the first 6 months of my company. The community backed me and allowed me to build an MVP and get instant feedback on every feature I released. We're in the big leagues now. We are well capitalized and are setting ourselves up to deliver an experience unlike anything you've seen before. The fastest prediction markets. Any verifiable source. Resolved Instantly. Extremely grateful for our investors (@foundationcap @jump_ @pumpfun @radiosolace), our community of token holders, my team (@steoniy @gnarzilla), and a final extra shoutout to Pump Fun again for making this possible and supporting builders. Anyways, Pumpcade.

Congrats to @PopPunkOnChain, @gnarzilla, @steoniy. Your hard work pays off and this is the best outcome possible. This weekend, CT spent time crying that VCs are not deploying capital while some VC writing books those they have been deploying. The real ones were not writing essays to look smart and active. They were actually doing the work. If you don't know... - @FoundationCap is not some random crypto tourist fund. Early @solana, Netflix, Cerebras. They have receipts across multiple eras of real company building. - @jump_ is what happens when real crypto infrastructure and real market understanding sit in the same room. Firedancer, Wormhole, Pyth. Actual products. That is why this combo is super strong. One brings elite venture judgment. The other brings real crypto-native execution. Well, this is not just a seed round. This is a statement. Some VCs were busy typing about deployment. The real ones just deployed. Real Gs do not yap. They act. Period. Anyways, Pumpcade Disclosure: we pre-seeded Pumpcade. Very grateful to share the cap table with @pumpcade, Foundation Capital, and Jump Crypto.

We're proud to announce that we have closed another oversubscribed funding round for $5M We're bringing on @jump_ for their expertise in revolutionary decentralized technology and are excited to have @foundationcap double down on fast paced instantly resolved markets Pumpcade.
