If you want to support real builders, you have to meet them where they are.
Thatโs why SWC isnโt just based in London.
Our ambassadors are across the UK, connecting with builders, understanding their needs, and bringing them into the movement.
Last month, that looked like @TheDePinCat hosting in Leeds with @ColuxChain.
Grassroots communities might start online, but theyโre built in real life, together๐ก๏ธ

Events like @ColuxChain remind us what this is really about.
Local builders. Local communities. Real momentum across the UK.
Stand With Crypto exists to support grassroots advocacy, champion innovation, and push for a pro-growth future for digital assets in Britain.
Great to see our partners @SuperteamUK and SWC Ambassador for Yorkshire @TheDePINCat supporting on the day.
We're excited to see how far this Leeds-based community can go.

I just wrapped up an intense session at @ColuxChain discussing how the conversation around AI and DeFi has shifted from optimism to a very necessary kind of paranoia.
We are seeing a huge shift where anyone can now build complex trading bots but that does not mean the playing field is suddenly level. The institutions still have the capital and the compute power to stay ahead.
The most important thing we discussed is how we view these AI agents. They are basically interns. They are fast but they have terrible judgment. If you are building with them you have to treat them that way. You sandbox their access and you never give them the keys to everything at once.
We also touched on the fact that the weakest link is no longer the code. It is the people. The recent Drift hack showed us that even perfect smart contracts can be drained if the humans behind them are tricked. AI makes social engineering attacks much cheaper and way more convincing.
My main takeaway for anyone in the space is to put a human wall in front of every major transaction. Do not just sign a digital signature. Demand that your agent explains what it is doing in plain English first. If you can't understand the move you shouldn't let the agent make it.

It was an honour to represent @StandWCrypto_UK at @ColuxChain 2026 yesterday in @UniversityLeeds.
There were so many interesting presentations on agentic AI, community building and more, as well as so many engaging conversations before, during and after (in a pub).
It was also great to close the event with a speech focusing on debanking and the past, present and future of crypto, bringing in examples from @CryptoKitties, @kula_dao, @WorldMobileTeam and @fuseenergy.
A few key takeaways (not exhaustive):
๐ก RWAs, DePINs, AI are hot but need compelling storytelling and a new approach to decentralised tech to scale.
๐ก Keep blockchain in the background, it doesn't need to be understood by everyone.
๐ก Debanking in crypto is still real for businesses and individuals.
๐ก Lots of builders in the North that want local community.
Professional photos / recordings inbound.
๐งต Some highlights ๐

Had a great time at a recent blockchain event hosted by @ColuxChain at Leeds University Union.
Really impressed by the quality of the event and the people in the room. If youโre based in Leeds and interested in blockchain development or quantitative finance, itโs definitely worth keeping an eye on what theyโre doing.
Always refreshing to connect with others in the industry who are building, thinking long-term, and focused on real innovation.
Looking forward to the next one.

Had an incredible time at a Web3 crypto meetup in Leeds and it completely changed how I see these events.
No long talks. No pressure. Just people with the same passion for crypto, good conversations, drinks, games, and real connections.
After spending so much time in Web3 talking to pfps, meeting face to face hits different. The energy, the diversity of people, the mix of experienceโฆ it just works.
Not going to lie I was a bit nervous going alone. But once youโre there, itโs easy. Everyoneโs open, and conversations flow whether itโs crypto or just life.
Big respect to the team building this community and pushing something bigger with ColuxChain bringing Web3 events beyond London and putting Yorkshire on the map.
If youโre anywhere near Leeds, Iโd 100% recommend getting to one of these meetups.
