My biggest success metric for @SuperteamNL is members helping each other unconditionally
when I joined this ecosystem, complete strangers were ready to help however they could
seeing that same thing happen now in the Dutch community means we’re heading in the right direction 🇳🇱 – at Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Amsterdam → London 🧡
I’ll be at @Solana Breakpoint with the @SuperteamNL crew. Make yours and come say hi 👇

another Colosseum wrapped up with @SuperteamNL !
every time we host something, I see new faces and meet people building on Solana for the first time
love seeing Solana grow in the Netherlands 🧡

every great founder needs a first believer
and a community that wants to see them win
join your local @superteam 🧡
Huge congrats to the Spout team on their raise, especially our members @MrReijn , @Mierlo1999 (& ofc congrats to @0xmryan as well!)
amazing founders who are always ready to help others in the NL community
as tokenized equities become the norm, Spout is building one of their most exciting use cases: borrowing against your stocks at 0% APR
We’re excited to announce that Spout has raised a $2m strategic round from @DraperDragon, @Anchorage, @FlowTraders, @Taisu_Ventures, @VesselVC, @solayer_labs, @2SquareCapital and @Bering_Waters, with strategic backing from @solanalabs
Borrowing against your own stock doesn’t have to cost interest.
Post tokenized US equities as collateral. Borrow USDC at a flat 50% LTV. Pay 0% interest for as long as you hold the loan.
The lender is paid out of covered call premium written weekly against that collateral, not out of a rate the borrower pays. That is the whole trick.
European builders, building for Europe. 🇪🇺
Proud to see @kurate_finance built by two of our members, go live on @solana
Earn and borrow EURC and EURØP, with the infrastructure European institutions need to go onchain in €
public feedback is underrated!
shoutout to people like @GuiBibeau & @JosipVolarevic2 for publicly reviewing colosseum teams
founders get feedback, teams get exposure, and everyone gets to learn from their thought process 🤝

Less than a week until @colosseum's Crypto World's Fair submissions close.
The best products won't necessarily win, the best-pitched ones will.
