July was a month to remember. We hosted five packed events across Delhi, Indore, Vadodara, Gujarat, and Wayanad, bringing together over 600 builders, founders, and enthusiasts IRL. August is already off to a strong start with our first event on August 1, and there's a packed calendar ahead. More cities, more builders, and more opportunities to connect, learn, and build together. Chefs never stop, come join us. Let's build the future on Avalanche.

Team1 India Weekly Recap 🔺 Here's what happened across the Avalanche ecosystem last week. 🔺 @AvaxTeam1 introduced the Team1 Accelerator Grants Committee, bringing together 10 members from Team1, the Avalanche Foundation, Ava Labs, and the broader community. The committee was established to review projects monthly and collectively decide which projects would receive grants of up to $30,000. Committee members included @ChrisFusillo, @CryptoChimba, @PolyPup, @luke152, @Owenwg, @memosthetic, @Dorlanz0x, @Wrathtank_avax, @Joeycannoli9, and @Vohvohh. 🔺 @Hyundai showcased how stablecoins on Avalanche reduced cross-border payment settlement times from days to minutes. @MorganKrupetsky joined @NYSE Live to explain how Avalanche-powered stablecoins improved the speed and efficiency of global payments. 🔺 @magisformagic , Founder & CEO of @EVEN_biz, joined the speaker lineup for Avalanche Summit. He discussed how EVEN leveraged Avalanche to help artists sell music directly to fans, earn more from their work, and maintain ownership of their audience relationships. 🔺 The @AvalancheFDN introduced the Economics of Blockchain series, making its economic research more accessible by publishing research findings, open questions, and the actions shaping Avalanche's long-term economic strategy. 🔺 The community highlighted the impact of Helicon (ACP-285), which updated Avalanche's staking rewards by lowering the minimum reward floor for short-term validators while preserving maximum rewards for 365-day validators. The upgrade reduced projected AVAX emissions, strengthened staking incentives, and supported the network's long-term economic sustainability. 🔺 The @AvalancheFDN published its Research Agenda, outlining the research priorities, frameworks, and long-term questions guiding the Foundation's work toward ensuring the sustainable growth of the Avalanche ecosystem while increasing transparency with the community. Technology built for business. Community driven. 🔺

Our new collaborators are already on a streak across India. 🔺 @Themonkman hosted his first Team1 Connect, bringing together 40+ builders and enthusiasts IRL for an evening of learning, networking, and great conversations. A huge thank you to everyone who joined and made it a memorable one. Team1 is committed to helping both aspiring and experienced builders connect, grow, and build on Avalanche.
