Welcome, crypto friends and curious no coiner friends!
Today, we are launching a bi-monthly newsletter — The Crypto Community Handbook — which will be exclusively focusing on crypto community building!
Before we dive in…
Community is the bedrock of our story in the crypto sphere. 🌎 After being in the space for quite some time, we have seen how various communities treat protocols as religions ☦️. This particular scenario causes further polarization within our space. What's new?
We are better than this. ☝️
So here we are
We’re Jun and Louise 👋 Over the years, we've been running and building communities around the crypto space, sharing tips and tricks, celebrating little or big wins, and cheering each other when it fails. We all wish there's a "handbook" out there that we can look up and learn — that’s why we’re creating and curating this handbook and hopefully you can find it helpful.
We know that you can't "throw" a few freebies or tokens on your community member and expect your dream community to come together and thrive. You need a strategy, tactics, and support. We are here to help.
To accelerate the mission that we all deeply share, it is time that we break this barrier. Our mission is simple. Our goal here is to create and bring various crypto communities together through shared values and interests. Our work in the crypto space requires great collaboration.
Building community builds movements. 🔨
We believe that in our ecosystem, building a strong and lasting community will greatly increase a project's chance of success. We exist to amplify, test, and experiment with upcoming community products or services.
So, let's cut to the chase and keep building communities—time to talk about its best practices. Also, we'll invite the best community builders out there to answer your questions and respond to your community-curiosity.
FYI. This type of work is a reflection of our dedication and passion for community building.
What's next?
This is a community-focused newsletter, we will release the next issue according to your queries and questions about community building.
Made with Passion. Hustle. Dedication. Positivity. ❤️

This looks like the beginning of a wonderfully insightful news letter. Topics that I am currently interested in and would love to get your perspective on: All things DeFi and how Hiro is evolving to be a big player in this space, NFTs and their evolution and how they can be used for community events (airdrops and other perks). I see this as a hot trend and a very useful way of fostering community to lock up value in a platform.
Good to be here with you:)
