Last week, I had a meeting with @PudgyPartners to present our deck for the white-label solution for Pudgy Coffee with @CoffeeCultureTh . I reached out because, since we already have a licensing deal in place and a product ready to go, we haven’t gained much traction—mainly due to logistic issues and target audience, imo.
Steve was very clear that at this stage his focus is distribution, and that he’d be happy to give me pointers on selling to retailers.
The two main takeaways:
1⃣Building in Web2 takes significantly longer. Web2 is not as reactive as Web3, and it typically requires 1 to 1.5 years of planning before rollout—mainly because you have to fight to earn shelf space in major retailers.
2⃣He also mentioned that markets are quite similar in the sense that if something is successful in country A, it will likely be successful in country B. Therefore, success would be replicable from one market to another.
Which brings me back to the post I made in Jan: the focus is to build the business in Thailand and put down deep roots here. Our main clients, were we are getting traction, are luxury hotels — Ritz-Carlton, Rosewood, Amanpuri, Vanderbilt Estate — and we are growing. On the DTC side, we will be pushing our existing Pengu drips through TikTok and Web2 KOLs, as well as launching KOL coffee lines.
While I’d love to push the Web3 side harder with @AbstractEllies, the priority right now is continuing to build in Web2.
PS: I am still sending samples to Miami Igloo HQ and will definitely be ready if the opportunity arises.

Plan: Build strong locally first, incorporating @AbstractEllies & 🐧's vibes as we grow.

It just makes sense to double down here!
Sunday night grinding!
Packing 15,000 coffee drip bags, 50% there .... and no, we still don’t have the automatic machine. Still somewhat manual 💪🙌☕ – at Choeng Thale, Thailand

Thai businesses. Global capital.
What if more thai businesses could access global capital without rebuilding their entire financial stack?
Thailand already has established businesses, productive assets and operators with plans to expand. Connecting them to international capital is an opportunity in its own right.
The missing pieces are often investment-ready businesses, quality deal flow, investor distribution and efficient execution.
AI can improve financial analysis and reporting. Existing financial platforms can support compliant investment processes. Onchain infrastructure can enable new approaches to ownership, settlement and investor coordination where it adds value.
The opportunity is to connect productive Thai businesses with the capital and expertise they need to grow.
Not infrastructure for infrastructure's sake. More investable businesses. More productive capital. More opportunities to build.
Bring Thai opportunities to global markets.

When a disaster hits, relief money often takes too long to reach the families who need it.
@ReliefVue is building a way to send it straight to their wallets on @Solana 🌏
Donated funds wait in pre-funded vaults, so the money is already there when an emergency comes.
When one does, households are verified privately, with their data kept offchain, and then a fixed grant goes directly to their wallet.
AI helps review the evidence, but people make the final call before any funds move. Every payout stays on a public record anyone can check.
It's an early prototype, and there's a demo you can try.

Had to send some money, but the recipient refused to use crypto and insisted on Wise instead.
I topped up my Wise account with 25,500 THB, and they deducted 1,800 THB just to move the money from my bank to top up Wise, followed by another 174 THB in transfer fees. I haven’t even checked the exchange rate yet, which I’m sure they take a cut from too!
That’s around $68 in total just to send a $700 transaction. 🤦♂️
Why are people so afraid of crypto? 🤔
"as more businesses move onchain, NFTs could become a useful way to represent ownership, experiment with revenue sharing and build communities around products" 🐘☕ – at Choeng Thale, Thailand
NFTs are an area of crypto that i think deserves another look
the 2021 boom and subsequent crash left a lot of people with a negative view of them, but the underlying concept still makes sense to me
as more businesses move onchain, NFTs could become a useful way to represent ownership, experiment with revenue sharing and build communities around products
i expect there's still a lot of room for experimentation beyond the NFT models we saw last cycle

As I mentioned in Jan, the focus has been Web2, DTC, and B2B.
Orders are coming in daily, and we haven’t even started with our Web2 KOLs coffee line yet.
On the B2B side, we locked in clients like Rosewood, Amanpuri, and the Ritz-Carlton, with other ultra-luxury hotels in the pipeline, plus more orders for white-labeling our coffee. We also got a 15,000 custom drip bag PO!
And hopefully the coffee samples we sent to a Web3 company on the other side of the world land well 🤞
Still far from where we need to be, but building a business takes time! ☕🐘 – at Choeng Thale, Thailand

Bravo! As @Fityeth said, the park got this one right! 🙌 – at Choeng Thale, Thailand
A man entered a tiger enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park and was killed.
The park has confirmed the tiger will NOT be put down.
GOOD. That’s exactly how it should be.
The tiger didn’t escape. It didn’t attack someone walking down the street. It was minding its own business in its own enclosure when a human entered its territory.
It’s tragic that someone lost their life, but let’s use some common sense here.
You cannot walk into a wild animal’s home, ignore the danger, and then blame the animal for doing exactly what nature designed it to do.
The tiger doesn’t deserve a death sentence because someone made a terrible decision.
Glad the park got this one right.
