Thank you, Lucas and Mateo, for everything you've poured into Michigan Blockchain. Your hard work, ideas, and leadership have left a lasting mark on this organization and the people in it. Wishing you both all the best in what's next! 💙💛
So impressed with this @MichBlockchain team! Well sourced, researched, and executed. If any Web3 companies are looking for a consulting project done by the best in the game, my DMs are open!!
Great time talking crypto, fintech & @galaxyoneapp with @SolanaLuca and students at the Midwest Blockchain Conference. My advice: solve the problem that matters to you. For me, needing liquidity for a down payment to buy my first home sparked the creation of crypto-backed loans.
Galaxy had a great weekend in Ann Arbor at the Midwest Blockchain Conference—the largest student gathering in the blockchain space.
We were proud to sponsor the event and connect with so many talented students pioneering the onchain future.
Thank you @MBC_Conference@college_xyz for bringing this community together!

Huge thanks to @standwithcrypto for an amazing Detroit event with Big Sean and for pushing crypto regulation forward, and big shoutout to @SolanaLuca for taking the stage!

.@SolanaLuca is taking the lead as the president of Michigan Blockchain after revamping and running our educational program for the last year.
Connect with him and @simoninsinger to chat through how to run a proper University education program.
Mateo & Lucas have landed in Vienna, repping Michigan Blockchain at @soniclabs’ Sonic Summit.
Lucas spoke on “Crypto Evangelism in the University Realm” alongside leaders from @BlockchainatCal, @BlockchainColum, and Sonic’s DevRel team.
From panel insights to cross-university collaboration and global builder connections, we are grateful to Sonic Labs for giving students a platform to share how blockchain is evolving on campuses and beyond.

Final project showcases day -- 10 teams worked on consulting, governance, investments, and dev projects. Seeing the growth these students had over the semester reminds me why I do this. Thank you W25!
More on the projects soon...
⭐️Proof of knowledge NFT's⭐️ - Complete the Michigan Blockchain education cohort and get your very own MB NFT. I might even prop up the floor price of these things, lol!
Thanks @EzvenG for the idea.
Another Week of Governance Updates:
For this week, we reviewed proposals from @compgovernance, @Unsiwap, and @arbitrum

Week 7, MB President @redempshawne gave the cohort a "The Technical Stuff" session! Shashank heads to Bain post-graduation, but I have a feeling we'll see him back in Web3 very soon...
Topics Covered: L2 Infra, Rollups, ZK, Bridging, & DePIN
Here's a sneak peek from yesterday's cohort session!
A huge thank you to @jacobvcreech for joining @UMichBlockchain's education cohort and sharing insights. The opportunities in the @solana ecosystem are looking more promising and prosperous than ever!
Week 6 is perhaps the most important session of the semester. Cohort students are given SOL to put their learnings to the test on chain! Thank you @ocandocrypto from @UniswapFND for speaking to us after this monumental session!
Topics Covered: On Ramping & On-Chain Exploration!
Summer 2025 Internships in Crypto 🧵
General consensus is that there is a lack of internships available in crypto. For this reason, we struggle to onboard strong young talent compared to big tech.
This thread highlights all the top open internships.
@Coinbase, @Gemini, @Chainlink, Galaxy, etc.
(There are way more opportunities than I initially thought)
