Why I’m Joining the Busha Creators’ Program as a Web3 Blogger (And Why You Should Too!)

Let’s be real: content creation in the Web3 space is like explaining crypto to your grandmother. You think you’re making sense, but halfway through, she’s nodding politely while secretly texting your mother to confirm if you’ve joined a pyramid scheme or a cult. That’s where the Busha Creators’ Program comes in! Finally, a space where people actually understand my jokes about gas fees and rug pulls. A place where I can turn my keyboard-smashing rants about blockchain into something that pays ...

How to Build a DAO That Doesn’t Make People Want to Run for the Hills (or Accuse Each Other of Stealing Computers)

So, welcome to the strange but extremely exciting world of a DAO. Imagine a group chat. But not just any group chat—a caffeine-fueled, emoji-spamming, meme-sharing, hyper-ambitious group chat where everyone is the CEO. Now, add money. A lot of money. And rules. But not normal rules—rules written in code. That, my friend, is a DAO. A DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) is like a co-op on steroids, run by a bunch of like-minded people on the internet who may or may not have met in real ...

March 15th, the magical mid-month moment when salaries are divided into advances, debts, and dreams. For the weary Web3 wanderers, it was also the day of choices—Founders Connect or Sui Kenya? A tough call, but word on the blockchainverse had it that Sui Kenya had better food (yes, that matters), now that kenyans are looking for a way to automate chapati making, one must realize how much we love and respect the food, thank God for the 45th tribe of Kenya and a buffet of different colored juic...

Why Bitcoin is Crashing & How Toilet paper could save it.

So, Bitcoin took a nosedive, wiping out all its gains since November 10. It even dipped to a low of $78,372 on Monday, which is the crypto equivalent of waking up to find out your bank account balance is just dust and cobwebs. But why is this happening, you may be asking? The world is not ending, there have been no sighted burning chariots in the sky, Jesus certainly is not on his way back, just yet. 1. Big Money Got Cold FeetBitcoin’s massive 2024 rally was all thanks to US-approved Bitcoin ...

How 1 Million Avocados Will Change the World (Or at Least Your Brunch)

If you thought avocados had reached peak fame with overpriced brunches and Instagram aesthetics, think again. A secret plan (okay, not so secret anymore) is underway to scale the production and usage of over 1 million avocados. The target? Green people—the generation that eats them, smears them on their faces, and worships their buttery green glory. And of course, the aging ones like us, looking to stay young and keep our skins pliable and soft, the dating market is quite difficult in this mo...

The Bybit Chronicles: A Day of Crypto, Sausages, and the Elvis Press-ly at Emara Ole Sereni

Nairobi traffic, boda confusion, and a detour through half the city later, I finally made it to Emara Ole Sereni for a Bybit event. My boda guy, a proud Uber warrior, somehow managed to turn a 15-minute ride into a cross-county adventure, and when I asked why he didn't know the city he was working in, we had a civil discourse about the importance of geographical awareness in the transportation industry. A lesson for another day. Inside, the event had all the trappings of a proper Web3 gatheri...
