As a founder, your biggest risk flight is not knowing how to find solutions to problems you face while building for scale.
Before @importapay_ng there was @Importahq, finding solutions for Importa brought ImportaPay to live, crossing $1m volume mark already, with client across Botswana, Guinea, Cameroon, Ghana and Nigeria.
Are you a fintech, payment provider, IMTO, in need of a regulated payment solution, at near instant settlement, great rate, fees 90% lower than what traditional providers, with multi currency access.
Reach out let’s talk today.

Before investing, ask yourself one simple question:
How long can I leave this money untouched?
Your answer should influence the investment you choose.

Happy Independence Day, Nigeria. 🇳🇬
Here’s to a future built on intentional decisions, disciplined capital, and shared progress.
Happy New Month from VESTRA.

Funny thing
I was at the same venue last OSCA event as an attendee, and some speaker was misrepresenting the blockchain, I was pissed, but I let it go.
Coincidentally, a year+ after, my talk was in that exact same room yesterday, explaining stablecoins
You can't make this shit up,
Keep moving 💪
Spoke at a technical Solana workshop yesterday at @GITEXNG with @SuperteamNG and it's astonishing that a full room needed to solve their payments bottlenecks, and stablecoins effortlessly solve them

Building a strong ecosystem also means building strong talent around it.
For years, we’ve trained and placed @solana talent into real teams, and it’s been great to watch them grow and ship across the Solana teams.
Moving forward, we’re focused entirely on sourcing, vetting, and evaluating exceptional talent across Solana.
That is why we are thrilled to announce our partnership with an outstanding team: @SuperteamTalent

I’ve been on quite a roll with the Tribe @solanaturbine ! s/o to the amazing family that’s adopted me, and the smaller rooms it’s enabled me to be in.
I’ve finally found my niche in the @solana_devs fam
🎉cheers to 1yr(ish) Building with the Tribe
Thanks for doing an amazing job 🫡
More giving back to come on my end
👀 and I’m still coming for more cohorts.
Emmanuel Bolarinwa retweeted
😎 And they all thought we were crazy to start doing eBPF, XDP, Aya in a cohort-
They were right about the crazy part, but not because of this choice.
Well done Ser! (And all the grads)
Looks like I'm becoming Him 👀
finally 4x Grad @solanaturbine 😤
This ADV SVM cohort had the highest number of Aya ebpf projects I've seen in a single room in my entire life
Amazing instructors @Princeadxisrael @bergabman @dotslashapaar @qubitn8
Time to dethrone and retire @alessandrod 👀

Alpenglow - Explained by cats
@solana new consensus protocol for dummies and @solana_devs
Emmanuel Bolarinwa retweeted
4.2 release schedule is now available: github.com/anza-xyz/agave/wi…
Features staged for activation in August:
- 200ms slot times
- Larger transactions
- Rent reduction
Emmanuel Bolarinwa retweeted
The battleground for testing new ideas and presentations. No need for an intro here.
How low can Solana's slot times realistically go?
100ms? 10ms? Lower?
@MaxResnick from @anza_xyz took our builders deep into how @solana actually reaches consensus.
→ Simplex & the skip-vote
→ Gatling & arbitrarily small slot times
→ Multiple concurrent proposers (Braid, MinCP, Constellation)
→ Asynchronous execution
→ What Alpenglow changes for all of it
and plenty more
There's always something special about getting Max in a room with our builders, the questions go deep, the back-and-forth gets real, and everyone walks out sharper.
This is the frontier of Solana consensus, explained by one of the brilliant minds building it.

Just completed Q2 Accelerated Builders Demo Day
It's really been a wonderful experience with my team.
This is our capstone project FluxDex a clob + pmm based Dex that makes use of magicblock ER for faster confirmation time.
Special thanks to the Turbin3 team for this cohort.

Q2 Builders Demo Day 🔥🔥
It's really been a wonderful experience, thanks to @solanaturbine and its amazing team.
This is my capstone project Token Launchpad X AMM
@solanaturbine @solana
Emmanuel Bolarinwa retweeted
Working on my @solanaturbine project
A Token Launchpad with an integrated AMM.
A clear architecture diagram helps define program interactions, account structures, and token flows before writing code.
Good architecture leads to better programs.

something we keep seeing?
our grads don't just finish programs and leave
they stick around
they lead
they give back to the ecosystem
In fact, most of our team today were students with us first and many more are now leading across the @solana ecosystem
@inspiration_gx is one of them
He joined us, went through builders → accelerated builders. teamed up and shipped Mojo, a gaming SDK on solana
-> started the_anchor_founder podcast to document his builder journey
-> executing developer activities at @SuperteamNG, simplifying things for the next wave of builders
that's the cycle we believe in 💪
learn, build, ship, then turn around and lift others 🙌
moments like this? This is why we do what we do
hear it from him as he shares his #Turbin3 journey 👇
