In 2023, Mintbase had a fantastic journey! We went all out to make everything easier and more enjoyable for everyone using our tech. And guess what? We marked an impressive 44% in June— that’s a whole lot of progress!

2022 marked the start of our journey with Mintbase Grants, and this year, we wrapped up the first round. Check out the pitches from our grantees and partners [here]. Now, we’re launching our second cohort! Some projects are already on board after the first 13 proposals. Got an idea? Submissions for the second cohort are still open here:

Mintbase Wallet was the real game-changer this year, stepping up as the go-to hub for all kinds of projects. Picture it as this friendly bridge connecting your ideas to the real world, no more tricky onboardings.

In the same mission to welcome everyone to NFTs, we added stablecoins (USDC, USDT) and opened up Stripe connection. Now, even if you’re not into crypto, you can dive into the NFT world, connecting regular cash with the web3 universe.

minsta = Minting + Instant

Throughout the year, various projects launched their own Minsta, using Mintbase Wallet to simplify sign-ins. Minsta, an open-source app powered by Mintbase Technology, emerged as a modular platform to bring people together for diverse events. Explore more about Minsta here.

“With the upcoming excitement remember that crypto and ai are not binary choices. Build at the intersection” says Luis Freitas.

As the year unfolded we seized the power of AI to simplify the blockchain scene, rolling out Mintbase AI. Now, users can smoothly get on-chain info and run smart contracts, all with natural language. We teamed up with AI providers like OpenAI and Replicate, and for extra convenience, we dropped two cool plugins, “action” and “search” turning prompts into database queries and making on-chain transactions.

Thanks to everyone who built with us this year. As a little token of appreciation, we’ve made this drop, claim it!

See you in 2024. We have big plans!
