Yet we are still so early. And build and preach on we can.

Mike’s speech from the SEA Blockchain week RektSurvivor event was published and you can watch on our youtube here 

From this speech, Mike tried a different angle for the presentation – rather than hype and talk all about the good – he shared some of the struggles on getting buyer adoption and engaged with the Q&A in an open format. From this it seemed much more effective, getting a lot of support, willingness to help, introductions to other projects. 

The path to mass adoption will not be a cookie cutter format like any other protocol in the past. The rules have changed, and we must adjust. One strategy we are implementing is adding more advisors and agencies who are truly aligned with us and willing to grind!

Grind mode on.

The best part is the team is still rock solid and believing in what we are building. I for one am willing to “die on this rock” and know this is the future. Market conditions and stubbornness of using “harder web3” than web2 is just a temporary concept.

The development team is close to coming out with cross chain settlement, allowing bitcoin payment, Solana, account abstraction, and more. 

We are becoming the hub, the base layer for commerce. And this is not an easy feat and know it will be a long, hard road. Will you join in?

As we are fundraising, we are not simply asking for investment anymore – we are asking for community support. As Mike spoke at a RektSurvivor (lol) side event, at the end – the audience asked “what are you looking for – besides investment” – and it got vulnerable and real. Mike shared that we need more help with making the buyer onboarding easier, and many in the audience made suggestions, added his telegram, made group introductions, and gave a ton of input after the speaking session.

This is what it is about – not a VC world where it is pump and dumps. It is about building a product and an infrastructure that works and people need, engaging and building an audience and going organic and grassroots.

We have been making these adjustments and are starting to make engagement contracts with individuals and agencies who can help us with this alignment.

On the product side, we are getting closer to supporting bitcoin and other cross chain payments. We realize we are not about “Connecting wallet” as the first step, but instead “creating an account” web2 style, and then inside it will be various forms of payment.

Also excited once coupon codes are ready as we can engage the community and have coupons issued to influencers or anyone for that matter to help spread the word.

More sellers interested in onboarding, and more alliances and partnerships pending.

Calling this “grind mode” – and this is the time when the true products and teams emerge.

Business development continues to progress, last week Mike was in a high level ecommerce mastermind with top Amazon sellers. Collecting feedback on the thought process on them listing their products on Hamza, with the main point being sellers look at marketplaces as ROI on their time of making the store any advertising fees to how many sales they will/are getting. Also how difficult is it to learn and import /add their product catalog. 

This week Mike is attending the Bangkok SEABlockchain week, which was cancelled over the weekend due to the aftermath of the earthquake. While there was fear of aftershocks and other after effects, many of the side events planned are still happening and our Wednesday Decom Night (Mike’s birthday party) is still happening as normal. 

Already Mike has attended a few side events and made solid contacts, those serious about the space still have come out to the various SEAblockchain week events.

Development side is making steady progress. Seller side continues to tweak and improve, and working towards cross-chain payments (bitcoin, solana) and coupon code and other features. 

We are in a flow, with our fundraising round coming along and engaging in various conversations. Building, we have a product, are listening to the market, iterating, and finding our place in the market.

Truly believe what we are building is a valid and needed project to the world – to empower buyers and sellers to own their data, money, and future.

Transcript:
(00:00) [Music] hello everybody or good morning good evening good afternoon wherever in the world you find yourself to be welcome to the fourth decom talks on Twitter spaces we’re very happy to have with us today Casper from Junetic he’s one of our first sellers but before we get into that I would like to make some some brief announcements and well first of all last last week we had I’m sorry last last during the last talks that was on the third decom talks we had as guest the people from Big Water they’re a deepen
(00:44) company and deepen as some of you may knows or may not know stands for decentralized physical infrastructure network so what big water does is they they they deal with different data collecting data from the environment reference to to air quality and water quality and they they produce they they they manufacture this device which is an air purifier that collects different environmental data and the the owner of the device it uses it as a sort of a mining device so that he as he contributes data to the to the big water
(01:25) blockchain he gets crypto in reward so last week we launched we successfully launched we at Hamsa successfully launched the deep pin device and it’s live right now you can go in it and look up Big Water and if you buy a device which is pretty cheap cheap considering the price of these devices you may get up to a 50% rebate if you do so before April 30th okay so also we we would normally have Mike Mike Molini with us today but he’s in a in a in a few events he’s pretty busy right now he’s doing the Southeast Asia
(02:09) blockchain conference next week and there’s also a decom talks next week which also coincides with his birthday so happy birthday to you Mike in advance i know you’re listening and yes hey hello yeah how are you excellent how are you doing an I’m good i’m good yes yeah so next week we’re we’re excited for that we have decom nights and also celebrating Mike’s magical birthday yeah ing the Southeast Asian blockchain yeah it’s going to be held in Bangkok and so and we’re we’re looking forward to
(02:49) meeting great lines and what’s this great people in Bangkok so will you be there Jose i’ll try to make it for sure yeah I’m down with that i’m not not physically of course but I’ll be I’ll be around in cyerspace like as I usually am yes also we’re having some some pretty exciting well besides all this Southeast Asia blockchain conference and stuff and the decom nights which of course will well there’s lots of interesting people from the space attending um we’re also having
(03:23) some pretty interesting developments on the Hamsa front the devs are working on the cross crosschain payments we’re looking into supporting Coin and Solana payments but that’s still in the works it’s going to take some time but next week the the devs tell me they’re they’re also doing there they’re opening they’re creating support for coupon codes so that sellers can issue coupons discount coupons to the to the potential buyers and they can go in and cash in their coupons and get a rebate on their
(03:57) purchases so that’s pretty exciting and we’re also looking to support seller and the general public chat so that if anybody has a has an inquiry concerning one of the products that we sell on Hamsa they can directly contact the seller uh they can do so now but it’s it’s more of an indirect thing because you see I’m the I’m the customer support guy so most of the consumer inquiries are directed to me but in pretty soon that you’ll be able to chat with the sellers themselves so slowly but surely
(04:35) we’re getting into a full-blown e-commerce platform just like we envisioned so that’s that on that front and right now let me talk a little bit about the Jetic store and our guy Casper who’s here with us tonight i’m sorry today and well Jonetic is one of our first stores it’s one of our first seller cohorts and genetic sells natural supplements uh from various with various properties so we’re talking about natural medicine so I would like to kick off by asking Casper if Casper if you can you please
(05:16) request to talk yes thank you welcome welcome Casper casper so so how did you get started in the in the natural supplement business how how did that come about that came about that I was doing a lot of biohacking myself and optimizing my health and by doing that then sometimes you come across certain supplements that you want to use and at that moment in time I was in Europe and actually it’s not so easy to go to a normal pharmacy and get something natural and that’s really good for your body because once you start to
(05:55) get into supplements you start to know that a lot of the bigger companies actually they they want they want to portray it’s really healthy but inside if you look at the ingredient list often there’s things inside that is not very good for the body and yeah I came across that a lot of lot of the times when I was searching for certain supplements so it was actually hard to find something that was yeah I imagine I I imagine that’s that that’s very difficult and big farmer doesn’t want you to to be
(06:25) healthy either right doesn’t help but Casper when when did you begin doing this was it before the pandemic or was it in reality it’s not really that healthy and I think a lot of people come across this i’m not the only one heard the same story from a lot of other people and that’s actually what inspired me to create my own oh oops it seems that I don’t know about you guys but I’m I’m not hearing Casper oh so uh I I hear him okay Jose how about how about Yeah I heard Casper yes so uh thanks for that
(07:06) Casper how about now are you able to hear can you hear me now Jose sorry Casper i I mean you were you were seem you’re visibly talking but I’m not I wasn’t hearing you so sorry I interrupted that time because I thought you were you were finished talking i I didn’t I didn’t get the last things you said well the last thing I said was that that’s that’s the story why I got inspired to make my own it was the the fact that when you wanted to buy supplements for yourself often you find
(07:34) that some of the supplements had dextrins or some kind of fillers or stuff inside of it that shouldn’t be there and that inspired me to make my own and to find a good source where you could get everything certified organic you can get every um and you could customize it in such a way that you wouldn’t have any of the fillers or because normally when you when you work with any extracts from plants most of the suppliers they would they would actually use fillers let’s say you have a plant compound that is uh
(08:09) 95% pure whatever compound then the last 5% would be some kind of fillers and that would be maybe dextrins and dextrins are some a compound that actually spikes your blood glucose levels higher than sugar so that’s not really healthy for for you that’s why to to find a good source where you could create your own supplements and only use natural compounds 100% organic this is this is what led me to that the fact that often you would struggle to find that in in any pharmaceutical pharmacy across Europe
(08:49) when I was there and sometimes also even when you go to find supplements on various online markets that would also be often like hidden surprises that not really that good for you so that’s why sometimes it can be it can be difficult for the average person to navigate in terms of what is really good for me because a lot of it is hidden in the ingredient list and sometimes probably they don’t even show it so for me it was it was necessary to to make my own and be sure that there was not going to be any
(09:28) adverse health ingredients inside of it so like like a pure product where no hidden surprises were this is what I wanted to create and this is also what we got now actually yes Casper I I understand dextrin is is basically sugar right it’s it’s it’s what is that what they call exipient in a in a certain medical compound is that is that is that an exipient you have different dextrins but most people have heard about mealtodextrin and yeah it’s it’s it’s a sugar product and it’s it spikes your
(10:04) glucose levels higher than sugar so it’s not something that you should really aim for to have even in small amounts i would just personally I would not like it yeah but I I imagine this takes a a little bit quite a lot of knowhow actually to to be able to to find natural substitutes for these exipient compounds like dextrin so do you have some sort of like training or or or have you had some sort of training or education before you started this project did you study pharmacy or something no I didn’t study pharmacy but I’ve
(10:43) studied plants and extracts and recently let’s say half a year ago I did a a course with the traditional Chinese medicine so it’s like yeah I’m bringing knowledge from different areas put together to that’s quite a lot of study there i mean here we have something called a toxinous medicine which is what the indigenous people used and they know a lot but it’s just not recognized formally in the in the medical in the medical world and that that’s a problem because these things I I mean I personally believe
(11:19) they’re way more effective than than any pharmaceutical uh excuse the word crap that that you put in your body but yeah I imagine so so it was quite a it was quite a rabbit hole that you dived into there and Casper I was I was going to ask you when when did you start this was it before or after the pandemic well actually this this was after the pandemic i think that a lot of people became very health consscious after the pandemic and I’m one of them and it led me it led me down a rabbit hole to figure out what’s what’s actually truth
(11:56) about health and who can you trust because a lot of people use used to trust doctors and pharmaceutical all that but then you see we have the sickest population probably ever so the question is should you look for somewhere else to trust regarding your health or should you try to educate yourself to be your own doctor this is one of the things they really they want people to be able to do in let’s say traditional Chinese medicine they want people to also be their own doctor to understand their own body and not give
(12:29) their power away to somebody to some doctor in an office who which probably don’t know much about nutrition or lifestyle changes and they would rather just subscribe you a pill so you’ be a yeah a regular customer for the pharmaceut pharmaceutical industry and this is I’m very much against that i think that you should empower people to to take care of their own health and not just give them an easy solution and make them stay in their bad lifestyle if if that’s what’s causing the problems so
(13:00) finding the root cause in in terms of just symptom treating exactly which is more in line with the original medical ethos of let’s let your your food be your was it Hypocrates or somebody let your food be your medicine yeah your medicine yeah exactly so yeah I mean I’ve I’ve heard a lot of stories of people post pandemics my sister is one of those she’s a biohacker too and yeah the pandemic opened a lot of people’s eyes and like like you said it led them to take charge and responsibility of their own health
(13:36) because most people look at at a doctor it’s like okay here I am cure me but I understand that the natural medicine takes a different approach it’s like you’re also responsible for your own health so how what would you how would you what would you recommend to somebody who who wanted to learn about all this stuff and natural medicine to better appreciate your products that that you that you’re selling on Hamsa for example like to appreciate how effective they are and for what for what ailments and
(14:08) conditions they’re better suited where where would you recommend somebody start learning about this is there any bibliography or resources that you that you can recommend well I think if I were to mention a great person a great person which are very educational and that I also myself learned a lot from would be the the woman from Australia Barbara O’Neal she’s very good at also mentioning a lot about her oh yeah i love her she’s there of her her material out there on YouTube and stuff so Barbara
(14:44) Yes barbara O’Neal yeah she’s really good she knows a lot yeah so let’s get into the products that that you’re selling on on on that you that we’re selling on Hamsa you have four products basically and the the product names are are pretty much the plant like the like the main plant ingredient let’s start with let let’s see let let me let me fire up the Hamsa site and and look at these these products and go over them together and see what if you can briefly tell us like what their properties are what their
(15:21) what they’re used for and all that stuff i think the the first one is the first one that you have you have five products if I’m not mistaken here right five on Yeah yeah the first one that I’m seeing is Spirulina Moringa now moringa I’m I’m familiar with that because you see I live in Venezuela and we have this plant and and it’s pretty widely used especially among like old people and who who know something about traditional medicine they use it a lot and and I understand they use most of the plant
(15:55) parts but can you talk to us about spirulina about the spirulina moringa supplement please yeah the product well the thing is uh when you look at like synthetic vitamin and minerals compared to natural vitamin and minerals you can easily take out of proportion the synthetic ones so example would be you have a lot of calcium but not a but not enough magnesium or you have vitamin D3 but you don’t have K2 so there’s always like it it’s like if you get too much of one thing it can make an imbalance whereas if you get it from
(16:36) plant material it’s already in right proportions so you not get that imbalance and basically this is why the the natural side of or more like the holistic side of supplementation I think is sometimes a lot safer especially if you are not a super professional biohacker which knows exactly the ratio what you need then when you when you take it from nature you have already the right proportions in place so you not get like imbalances in the same Hey that was just to explain why some of the let’s say moringa is very nutrientdense
(17:16) the same as spulina so you with this product you’ll get the right proportions of what the body needs and also moringa and spulina has it actually has three three no four ingredients it has wheat grass as well and it also has ginger ginger extract so they all very alkalizing for the body which means it’s detoxifying the cells it removes heavy metals and it gives it also upregulates the body’s own well our own defense mechanism called NRF2 it’s like a gene that is expressed and one while while we
(17:57) age this expression is minimized but with the with certain plant compounds it help to express these genes again and this is our own innate defense mechanism which is uh which is very necessary for the body to handle any oxidative stress and we are exposed to that every day all the time most most people and So in this formulation you have ginger because ginger is always used to as a synergistic herb it helps move the other ingredients around the body with the blood and that in that way it boosts the whole formulation so it reaches all
(18:41) around the body and so spulina moringa is is a is a detox product at the same time it cleanses and gives you a lot of energy and it is very nutrientdense so you at the same time get a lot of vitamins minerals what you actually need and the new formulation that’s coming out is moringa extract 10 to one so you would actually get a bit more than the the let’s say the old product the the in the test phase we had the the normal spirulina maringa but now we we change it to extracted form moringa so it’s 10
(19:18) times more powerful as well okay so so this will be a new product then Casper right this well it’s it’s the same product just enhanced just just enhanced functions yeah I I get what you’re saying about the the imbalances of minerals and vitamins and stuff yeah that’s that’s that’s a big problem but I was reading on the on the on the description it talks about grass okay so spirulina binds to heavy metals yeah because it it killates with the heavy metals that that’s so they binds and microlastics i find that super super
(19:54) interesting because I Fred I I I don’t know I don’t know too much about the topic Casper and correct me if I’m wrong but I read that microplastics is like a major health problem nowadays because we get most of our stuff packaged in plastics and we have just so much plastics inside our bodies that so much BPA and and and all that stuff that it’s and it’s really really interesting to to see that this product helps get rid of of that stuff yeah some of the algaes like wheat grass chlorella spelina this
(20:29) is one of some of the most cleansing for our body to be honest to remove things that doesn’t belong and we have a lot of microplastic accumulating in the body same as heavy metals nowadays so to have something like this to to help you detox all that crap is very important because the more it accumulates the more oxidated damage or stress it also gives to the body so to try to get rid of it and to minimize the damage which is impossible not to get affected by I think is very very important for most people for every
(21:06) people everyone actually yeah oxidative stress I get that and also it’s I think it’s important that this this this product restores the alkalinity most of us due to our modern diet we we’re we’re way too acidic in our blood so this helps to restore the alkaline balance the the pH um I have I have an autistic son and autism is mostly well well there’s several theories of that one of the theories is that they have some problem in their guts and a lot of and there’s also the topic of of metals heavy metals which is
(21:46) one of the theories what that that explains how how autism is is caused but the problem is my son will not take anything like easily any any any sort of pill or capsule or that stuff so I imagine these things come in like like a sort of like a some sort of coating and and you can take it apart and maybe put the the contents of the capsule or something into a drink that he’s that he’s taking can you can you do that with easy yeah you can easily do that for sure i imagine I imagine the flavor is also not not very strong because that
(22:26) that’s a that’s a topic with autistic kids like they’re very sensitive to certain flavors and certain textures and all that stuff so it it it’s something that can go unnoticed if if you were to do that if you were to pour the the the contents of a capsule to drink well depending on how sensitive he is but I would say if you had like a juice and you put something in the juice the capsule in the juice I think it would be okay i think the thing is you can’t really change spulina and wheat grass
(23:00) moringa is not the most like delicious thing to drink but if you mix it with something else it it could go unnoticed i would say it that’s Yeah excellent i’m I’m already I’m already wanting to buy one of one of your products Casper but unfortunately it seems that you sell only within Thailand right is that is that correct well we just I found a shipping company to ship it to Europe but you you need to buy more than one product for it to make sense but yeah we are I am sending some of it to Europe i
(23:38) think I’ve sent some a package to Spain and one to Denmark and I’m going to send two more to Denmark soon and then there’s going to be products in Europe any plans of expanding to the to the Americas be it North or South America well I can send the package there as well this the shipping company do actually operate in Europe and America but and I maybe also South America to be honest but let’s say Middle East it it doesn’t it’s it’s a bit harder to find some destinations are pretty hard to
(24:12) deal with and that’s that’s a yeah a logistics is something that’s very complex but just just so that Casper recently like in our last sprint the devs developed some functionalities for for being more specific on the shipping and handling cost of of products available on Hamsa so that you’re so that the seller is able to specify with like according to the destination country you can specify the shipping cost and maybe maybe we should review after we next week we should start reviewing if if you’re if you’re having other if you’re
(24:50) offering the product to other destinations we could start reviewing like making a list of of of shipping and handling cost per the destinations that you now cover and also I was thinking I was thinking that maybe because it wouldn’t make sense to buy just one and pay a whole bunch of money just for the shipping and handling cost so I imagine that that with certain requisites like if you if you’re having if you’re buying five or more or maybe or maybe having the product in presentations of like say
(25:22) a package of 10 of 10 bottles of of of spirulina moringa for example you’re able to ship those to a to a country and pay so much in shipping and handling that sort of stuff may maybe we ought to look into that next week Casper if you don’t mind yeah we can do that easy yeah cuz I mean I think your product is I love your stuff man i wish I could buy some myself lucky Mike he bought some for you a while back ago right yeah he did yeah he he’s not here with us now i know he’s listening but I think he owes
(25:57) us an unboxing and and his and your review on Hamsa of course yeah sure i think so too yeah I think we ought to we ought to get on that so how’s your how has your Hamsa experience been Casper how do you see how do you see a decentralized marketplace like Hamsa benefiting sellers like yourself well I think it’s I think it’s something that we need in the future because certain other online platforms it can be sometimes really hard to get your product on there and right now since I’m the I’m based in Thailand and sometimes
(26:36) some of the platforms there they they want a lot of documentation and you’re trying to find everything it needs and then sometimes they just reject you without any real reason and you can’t get any explanation and then you have a a site like Hamster which is straightforward and much easier to work with and I think that the new sellers or upcoming sellers like me would Yeah I really enjoy that it’s it’s more simple to work with and easy to work with compared to some of these other older online platforms which are more let’s
(27:11) say there’s a lot of regulation and rules and sometimes you have no support to understand what’s the next step for me to have my products on here and that can be a bit frustrating sometimes when you are new and you just want your product out there to be exposed but you’re not able to for some reason yeah I I imagine that i I imagine it’s like next to impossible to to offer a product like this on on Amazon i mean because Amazon I didn’t even Yeah I didn’t even bother with that because it would be
(27:43) probably you’d have to pay for you for having your stuff there the first a long period of time so you just not really when you when you upcoming you also want to have some cash flow so if you if you’re just putting your stuff on on a site and they actually charge you more than you earn then it doesn’t make any sense yeah plastia I imagine that Amazon being the decentral the centralized monster that it is it wouldn’t be too happy if to have somebody go against the the big pharma stuff i imagine it’s just me
(28:18) talking here but yeah there’s probably something in it about that so So how did how did you hear about Hamsa how did you how did you find us Casper i met the mic at a e-commerce meeting in the Shanghai oh okay and after that yeah I just was quite curious because for me I like I like web three and I like crypto and I like well I like I think it’s quite modern and I think a lot of people will will look into that in the future because you have more freedom and you don’t need to be it’s not as difficult to have your
(28:57) for me to get my product on hamster was fairly easy and I had a lot of help and support compared to some of the other online platforms and so yeah I heard from it from Mike and I wanted I was curious and I’m happy that I have my my shop there now excellent yeah we’re very happy that you have your shop with us too because that that’s that’s a lot of value that that’s the kind of value that we seek with on Ham having sellers like yourself offer not not industrial manufacturing big pharma stuff but the
(29:31) the kind of stuff that you wouldn’t find elsewhere you you you could find it here that that’s one of my that’s one of my dreams actually seeing a whole bunch of stuff like that listed on Hamsa yeah but I would like to ask you something Casper is is your clientele familiar with crypto or do do they are are they used to paying in crypto there is some that I know is familiar with crypto but the majority are not but I think that it will change in the future and most people will be using crypto I think so
(30:08) what do you think that’s I I think so too i mean personally I I’m I’m coming from Venezuela and right now I don’t know if you’ve read anything about Venezuela but there’s a whole bunch of stuff happening with currency exchange controls and the the US sanctions on the country making it very difficult for people to deal with with US dollars or US dollar banking so if if for example I wanted to buy a product like yours and I would have to pay it through the USD through the normal banking rails and
(30:43) payment systems I wouldn’t be able to because I don’t have access to that it’s just quite quite simply that that’s how it is so in in this country most people are are flocking to cryptos just out of necessity because for us there’s no USD banking system or or euros or any of that so yeah as I see I don’t want to get too much into politics but as I see what Trump is doing sanctioning countries left and right I I I definitely do see more of a future with with these sort of platforms and and cryptos in general
(31:23) people being able to transact with with crypto and that’s that’s actually one of the main value propositions of Hamsa that that not only are you able to do that but since we use an escro system we don’t manage the users’s funds we just I mean that if if I for example if I buy a product on your store if I buy the Spirulina moringa which I hope to uh sometime soon I would I would make a payment but that payment goes into escrow what that means is that it goes into a smart contract okay and then you
(32:02) start the the pro the the order processing you you ship the product you send me the the tracking link I am able to see if the product has arrived at the destination and then once once once we know that the product is is at the final destination you mark it as delivered you as a seller would mark it as delivered and the buyer has to mark it as as as received as completed so once I do that the escore is released and you get your payment that’s it i mean no more fees no more no more fees than is necessary like
(32:42) like for example Amazon and other e-commerce platforms they charge you a whole bunch of fees for different things just for keeping your store and that stuff mike Mike could better speak about that because Mike knows quite a lot about that but a hamsa is different so I see it as a very promising a very promising proposition yeah I think it’s the way to go that you basically it’s like it’s I think it’s always like that isn’t it when when some companies get too big they just start to care less about let’s say average person
(33:19) and that’s what we don’t want we want we don’t want a lot of fees to be able to trade with one another it should be between the two parties and not Yeah exactly i mean we while we do hope to grow we’re we’re using a decentralized model which means that we won’t have a complete control monolithic control over everything over every transaction like like we’re going to freeze these this sellers funds and we’re going to screw him over uh none of that none of that because it works as a decentralized DAO
(33:54) and there’s going to be a a token to ensure that that that actors are are are are doing what they’re supposed to be doing and so that sellers are being honest and buyers are also being honest because everybody’s reputation will be on the blockchain so we we don’t we don’t we don’t intend to to have that monolithic control over everything like like other e-commerce platforms do so yeah that’s that’s the future of Hamsa but I would like you to talk a little bit more about the future of Denetic and when can we
(34:32) expect more more products more updates more I is there any any page we can follow to to to read about your journey or your recommendations for different products and stuff yeah I got I got an Instagram and I’m sharing the product information but I’m also sharing general let’s say lifestyle ways to yeah healthy lifestyle recommendation and that’s in that is inspired in how the body actually works and traditional medicine and what we used to do in the past and not just what we’ve been told to do the last 100 years
(35:12) so I’m sharing a lot of different things in there not only products but as I mentioned also like like health health advice like yeah longevity lifestyle kind of advice cuz I’m I’m I’m quite fascinated by how the body really works and what the body is capable of doing once you give it give it the right conditions and once you eliminate some of the things that is taking its energy so I’m I’m I’m using my Instagram to do that at the same time so it’s not only pure products but it’s also like what to
(35:48) avoid and which things are good for you and yeah to to put things into to try to get the average person to understand is it really matters sometimes not only what you eat but also what you eat has been eating or where it come where it comes from the source of your food a lot of things so it’s not only the products but also like general I would say longevity lifestyle advice yeah that that would definitely be for a value of immense value to a lot of people including myself it’s not it’s not just the body it’s also the mind and
(36:26) and even why not say it spirituality if you start taking if you start taking responsibility of your health and your body you’re also you’re also begin taking responsibility of your emotional well-being and and other other facets of of your of your existence i’m I’m looking forward to and I know lots of our our listeners are I’m looking forward to following you on Instagram and seeing these updates but right now Casper I’m just realizing by reading your store description on Hamsa that we
(37:02) don’t have your Instagram account there yeah that’s a mistake so that’s that that’s something we need to fix ASAP man okay le let’s get on that next week or this week as soon as possible to to to to fix that right now i don’t I don’t know if you if you were Yeah I believe that you were able to get on the seller admin panel you know that’s that’s a functionality that that our sellers have to be able to edit their store information and their product information so if you if you were to go on your
(37:36) seller admin panel I can help you with doing that later maybe tomorrow if you want uh we Yeah that would be great add your your Instagram account your and maybe other other social media accounts that that you that you would consider worthwhile putting out there so that people can follow your your information and your updates that would be that would be awesome man yeah i think is necessary so Casper any any closing thoughts on on health or on natural health or decentralized e-commerce that you’d care to share with us yeah well it’s not only
(38:19) I think the products that are going to come in the future as well is all going to have like an area of focus let’s say one of the upcoming one is going to be very focused regarding insulin resistance because most people nowadays is pre diabetic i would say 45% of the population in the world has some kind of problem with diabet pre-diabetic and that’s a major problem because that’s al you a thing like Alzheimer’s is like a pre-I well well diabetic diabetes type three so the thing is it’s one of the
(38:57) most well vicious diseases that evolves to something horrible like Alzheimer’s so I think given the conditions of the world I think to make products that also helps to combat that and reverse it is very important and that’s one of the upcoming products that’s going to be specific specific about this problem so just to Yeah so sometimes I think you need to find okay problems and try to figure out which things can can we do to solve them for the majority of people and products from nature that can help to combat some
(39:38) of these very known diseases I think is important yeah i mean diabetes diabetes and and Alzheimer like you said which is diabetes type type three that that’s no joke that that seriously affects your your life quality and and so I would I would recommend to anyone to to follow start following your your your Instagram and your your social media which we will soon be putting out there on our Hamsa store and thanks why not giving your products a try i mean I’m I’m in queue for that as soon as you start shipping
(40:17) to other countries I will be able to to Yeah to purchase some of your stuff man i’m looking forward to that so thank you so much for joining us on on this decom talks it was very educational very very interesting and I loved it i I it’s it’s been one of my best decom talks as thus far so thank you so much Casper you’re welcome right guys so as a closing closing remarks well Casper before you go do you have any questions for us i don’t think I have any real questions i think that I’m excited how how the hamster market
(41:03) will evolve in the future and I hope it will be bigger than some of the known platforms we have today because I think we need something like this for for free free trades from party to party and not too much of all the regulations and the blah blah from the other ones yeah yep my my sentiment exactly too i mean we need less of monolithic monopolies and more decentralized stuff where everybody can transact directly with each other from any part of the world without without having somebody restrict you for for any sort of reasons so so yeah I’m
(41:44) also looking forward to that future can’t wait to see it come to fruition at least on on where we’re on the front we’re fighting which is the decentralized e-commerce front so thank you so much Casper and thank you for having me i think with this we can conclude our talk so stay tuned for the next in the next two weeks for our decom talks number five where we will be having other interesting guests and thanks everyone so much for joining us good night thanks everyone so this is me signing off and over and out over and

Last week Global From Asia had a webinar sharing about the future of AI and blockchain, with an offer to onboard a select group of the community to be early sellers on Hamza market. There is a lot of unknowns in the “web2” merchant community about blockchain – and in the audience of 20+ only a handful said they knew what MetaMask is.

Also we onboarded BigWater air purifiers, our first DePIN project which had some special technical requests and requirements since it is a pre-sale contract. Lots of coordination with the BigWater team, our business development team, and the technical team. Great collaboration and communication flows being put in place.

Which goes to our direction on multi-chain and account login. We are reviewing the requirement of connecting wallet in order to see other menu items (currency, chain), and instead looking to a more traditional account creation flow and then having connect wallet.

This coming week, more work on multi-chain, coupons on the technical side.

This Thursday will be our fourth Decom Talks X (twitter) spaces, check us out on x.com/hamzadecom1 for that.

On the business development side for Hamza, this week Mike is flying to Hua Hin where there will be a seller mastermind. Will further show updates of Hamza and work to get feedback and onboard more.

Next week is Southeast Asia Blockchain week, with a Decom night (birthday party) planned to further connect with the web3 community. Yet the idea of Decom night is to invite the web2 merchant community together, and this is what the plan is for April 2 Decom night.

As you can see above in the various activities we are doing, it is a mixture of web2 (seller/merchant) and web3 (blockchain events, decom night).

The post Hamza Storefront 1.2.3 Release Notes appeared first on Hamza Market.

Last week we had our Governance Town Hall on Monday – a small and intimate conversation about the latest iterations in the white paper, pitch presentation, and where we are as a team and community.

Later last week we had our third Decom Talks on Twitter, featuring a new vendor and DePIN project BigWater. The founder shared his story and the budding project’s early days and preparing us for launch this coming week. 

Our development team is focused on two main parts – further hardening and smoothening the UI/UX flow as a top priority, with the seller admin side highest on that list. Second is a new expansion of accepting nonEVM tokens – starting with Bitcoin, and then moving to Solana. 

This is the long term vision of Hamza marketplace and the DECOM protocol – to be a governance and settlement layer for transactions across all blockchains. 

On the business development side, we have had multiple calls with investors, potential partners, and are interested in signing some agreements this coming week to get closer to the seed round closing this summer. 

We have never been more excited about what we are building – with the exponential growth of AI now, we see blockchain as an obvious choice for the technology stack once the dust settles. Having autonomous agents using blockchain is a superior to the current centralized database web2 stack.

Transcript:
(00:00) [Music] this is our third decom talk we’re trying to do this every couple of weeks to keep people up to date on what’s happening in the decentralized e-commerce space the projects the The Good the Bad the Ugly keeping it real right Jose yes sir we’re deep dealing with all topics decom awesome Chris Chris is me Yogi Bear and I think we’re still getting big water set up but we are got some exciting things so a little bit of the background about about big story is I was in Hong Kong I think you guys all are aware and ladies are
(00:43) aware consensus where I met one of the team members of big water and we were at a networking session and he says wow you you are perfect for deepin and they were looking for ways to accept crypto for their new campaign their launch which is just underway so it’s perfect timing and our team at Hamza has been working hard to get that all set up we have a staging server it’s not yet on the live site yet and we are getting that iterated for next week’s launch on on hen.
(01:21) Market so people can purchase this D centr dpin you think people know what deepin is Jose you want to share well deepin refers to decentralized was it product real world product infrastructure right yeah decentralized is a d de and then the physical infrastructure Network so essentially what that means is it’s creating these physical networks around the world that anybody can be a usually it’s called like a node and they can and they can host a node and normally most of the time almost all the time they’re
(01:59) rewarded with that project or that blockchain’s token native token for running the node and it’s it’s meant to be a you know Community Driven effort because people can permissionless Lech or set up a node normally they they need a standalone device but they could sometimes be also run on a computer there’s various forms of these dpin projects but big water has a physical product that you can buy that is a air filter and there’s two different choices of it and the way it works is you for the air in your area and you are
(02:40) compensated for doing that in rewards of their native token which will be coming out and still some technical difficulties on on the bigw side hopefully you can come up on stage and share from himself but this is the idea Jose what what are your thoughts on on this whole deepen Revolution well Mike it’s a very interesting use case for us I mean we we definitely belong in this in this deepen Revolution buing other other deepend projects to to join and and you know have access to to a market to the cryptocurrency market
(03:19) I’m I’m very excited I’m I’m I’m looking forward to all to how all this plays out and it’s playing out pretty well well there’s Dr parag from bigw himself if if you know here to add to what Mike was saying about the yeah air purifiers and all that yeah I hope he can join he’s here but he’s a listener so I I’m not sure I think they’re sorting out getting him on stage to speak is he maybe maybe some it’s also this Twitter space or something maybe he is here Dr brg are
(03:53) you with us can you I think there’s still some technical issues Mike it’s Twitter space thing yeah Twitter spes is it I mean it is a little bit of a risky do for us you know these these disconnect we had to reconnect but I still think it’s a good platform for Global group of people to be able to join and share real time but but yeah it’s it’s often a little bit tricky sometimes it does I’m actually on the desktop I’m on my well not desktop I’m my laptop but I think they usually
(04:27) recommend to do it from a phone but I’m not sure if he’s using a phone or a computer I’m actually doing it from my laptop myself I haven’t had any issues that way okay it used to only work on mobile and then it worked on a desktop but and’s also helped me with we’ve doing these for for for various initiatives over the years and anyway it’s still a little buggy but I hope it works but I I think while we while we still wait so yeah basically just some updates we really we do believe there’s a good
(05:04) natural fit of dpin projects with dcom you know dpin dcom of course the name is even similar but dcom is decentralized Commerce or decentralized e-commerce to allow people to transact permissionless Le through our various forms as well as of course native crypto payments I don’t know if you know Jose but I was doing some research where we’re looking at other deepend projects as well most of them don’t accept crypto to buy their Hardware device wow that’s that’s very contradictory Mike I mean cryptocurreny a
(05:41) cryptocurrency Marketplace like us and and the deepen project is a marriage made in heaven and I think can you hear me yes we can hear you fine now Dr barock fantastic thank you okay great so yeah welcome our spaces here it’s a decom talk and we’ve been chatting quite a bit we have a private group you know getting getting um everything lined up for your launch would you you know be willing to share a little bit about yourself and the and the project for us oh yes absolutely and you know first of all thank you very much for having us having
(06:18) me here having big water here and I’ve been I’ve been listening to all the conversations so far I just couldn’t get hold of the mic so some glitch but here I am and yeah just to start by saying the pin St stands for decentralized physical infrastructure and that pretty much is is the fulcrum of i i as we see it and as I personally see it of the web3 world going forward at least for the next three to five years I mean I think what has really happened is the uh the evolution of of web 3 and it’s and the
(06:53) maturing process the marination process the maturing process the curing process over the last two three five years and its search for real world use cases really led to mesari coining This this term deep in and this is this is pretty much going to be the fulum of the real world projects when I say real world I mean projects that that have a relevance in the real world they’re not just in the virtual world and that’s what is pretty is the is the Keystone of the big water project just to tell you a little
(07:25) more about the Big Water Project why is it called the Big Water Protocol he the end goal is to basically deliver clean water put more clean water in the hands of people and for that we we’ve created this entire model that you know we will we will create this huge ecosystem of sustainable actions that will be rewarded where users get rewarded on a daily basis but the end game remains like I said to give more clean water in the hands of people so and that is I’ll talk more about as we go into it and you
(08:00) know and as your specific questions come through but we’ve been working on this last now almost a year and you know trying to create the perfect model that is self- sustaining that is revenue acreative that is value acreative and above all that is participative unconditionally so everyone whether they belong to the web 2 world or the web 3 world should be able to participate in this so it does not require one to be extremely techsavvy and astute about about web three Technologies to be able to really become a a participant in this
(08:37) ecosystem that weed great thanks for that background and yeah it’s quite a lot of work to make Hardware is very very challenging and especially you know also connecting it with software and and blockchains how how how many years you said in development now so yeah so the big water initiative we’ve been working on for the year but but the big water initiative also comes or germinates from another initiative in the web two world that I have personally been the founder of and have been operating that company
(09:12) which is called Jan Jal uh Jana jel in in in India in Hindi which is the India’s national language Jana means people and Jal means water so we’ve been for the last I personally have been in part of the water sector for almost 15 years now Janel is a 12-year old company over the over these 12 years has delivered over 200 million lers of clean water two people in a sustainable and Equitable manner along the way we built our own patented Tech platform for water management and we collected over a billion data points while dispensing uh
(09:51) while making this water available to people so the we we created so we’ve actually been been a practitioner of deepin for almost 10 years now that deepen has become a mainstream term in the web 3 world so in the web two world we were practitioners we were doing this and I think that is what really the like I said the the timing of our thought process as as we were conducting oursel on the web two side we were observing the web3 side and the web3 side came up with this deepen terminology which we then went into understood and then
(10:26) started to create the alignment between how it would really work because what we didn’t want to do is move away from our core mission that we have assumed upon ourselves of delivering clean water to people but we actually wanted to go out and reach out to an entire new universe of of citizens of you know climate change conscious citizens or you know Green conscious citizens bring them on board and get them to participate in this entire clean water Mission and that is something that was a challenge what we did was you know of course like
(11:02) you said you know developing Hardware is the greater challenge Beyond first so it’s easy to say okay this is what I want to do then how I want to do is is the next big Challenge and we all know that web three initiatives can can you know end up spending two years trying to develop a deepen hardware and so that is where again what we coming from the web to side the as we saw it it was very important for us to create an instrument of participation which would be the deepen device here which is very very consumer friendly which is very very
(11:35) citizen friendly so if we have to make clean water available to let’s say 4.4 billion people today who lack it then we need to create a methodology that appeals to at least a billion people so we don’t want to be confined to only the web three side we need to bring in more web2 participation from the web2 side and shatter their inhibitions that they or their prejudices that they bear against web3 thinking it’s too complex think you know everybody has their own ideas and their own coming from their own figment of IM
(12:09) imagination so so we simplified it by creating an air purifier which is our deepend device so people benefit from this device in their daily lives every minute of their life as they operate it and while they operate it inadvertently without really wanting to they’re participating in a web free initiative that is also now giving them rewards and making clean water available for which they’re getting an nft while they continue to get what they bargained for which was clean air so we simplified the complexity to basically create a greater
(12:45) Outreach Dr par one of the one of the things I find fascinating about this deep in world I’m I’m only beginning to learn about by the way is the way that you know chain projects have have token tokens have supposed are supposed to have this incentive structure the so-called to tokenomics right could you care would you care to talk a little bit more about what the incentive structure in in your deep in Project is I mean how are people just how are people rewarded foring to data I imagine to the to the
(13:19) network okay great question and you know I’ll answer it in in in as much detail as I can so as far as the rewards are concerned I think for us before we got to the reward words what we did was we needed to lower the entry barrier like I said a we first needed to shatter the their inhibitions and overcome theire help them overcome their prejudices to be able to step in and participate we had to slide down the entry barrier uh typically if you look around deepen devices are our price north of $450 $500 they go up to even
(13:53) $3,000 and most of these devices are benign pieces of Hardware that are just planted somewhere in in in your or doing presumably doing something and giving you Rewards or giving you tokens or do or they work what we needed to do is lower that price point to also make it more affordable and easier for people to participate so so that’s that’s the first Challenge and then the second thing that we did was even after lowering it we needed to create this Rewards program which was really exciting so in our particular case what
(14:25) we’ve done is we we priced our our deepen device the one that we are launching initially with is at 10 even that is not an expenditure for the participant it is actually an investment so they will ideally receive or earn this investment back in any in around six months is how we’ve coined and created this entire Rewards program so if you just simplify it further in my in your head it’s $180 that should come back to you in 180 days that’s our vision that’s how we are working on this entire model so how the
(15:00) earning should really fan out eventually I’m not saying it’ll happen that way from day one but eventually it’ll get it’ll come down to a weighted average and that’s how we working working the entire toonomic side well yes the the device is certainly accessible and we’re just launching it on staging right now and we should have it launched on on our site in production in about a week I imagine but besides besides so so to speak mining data for for the deepen project you’re also getting Pure Clean
(15:31) Air right that’s right that’s exactly right so this is what the the device really does is it adds tremendous value to to the to your own environment to your own ecosystem and also to the environment of around you I mean air belongs to nobody so if you’re cleaning your Air does not mean that air remains yours it eventually belongs to the community it belongs to the the town city the planet so as we envision I mean you know coming from India we unfortunately India enjoy a very high purge position in terms of polluted you
(16:08) know the cities that are plagued with pollution air pollution that is I think just yesterday there was an article in an Indian press where out of the 30 top polluted cities in the world 20 of them are in India uh and that is a fact because we encounter that on a regular basis what is very important for us is that the way we thought about about it is think of a city like Delhi which actually happens to be the which qualifies to be the pollution capital of the world think of a city like Delhi that has a million deepend devices of
(16:39) big water sitting and cleaning air in a million homes NCR the national capital region alone has 70 million people officially counted I’d argue it could be closer to 90 million if not 100 now there are at least 10 million if not 15 million homes if not 20 million homes in Delhi alone we’re saying if a million devices can go out start cleaning 2 million lers of air per day per device our calculators will shatter in terms of number of zeros and number of how many liters of clean air that is now imagine
(17:18) all of that will that really contribute to some level of better air and the and the obvious answer is yes and that’s exactly what we working towards where people conduct themselves in their own interest and in the interest of their Community wow IM imagine that not only are they cleaning the air around them but uh they’re also receiving rewards for for contributing to the to the to the network right yes can you hear me oh yeah much better yeah okay great yeah yeah that’s right I mean so they’re contributing to to you know
(17:54) getting clean air they’re delivering clean water to communities so while when I said is installed and operating imagine a million devices will enable a billion liters of water for underserved communities and that W be given just in India that water could be given in Cambodia that water could be given in Indonesia in African in any African countries it could be given in Middle East because through the through the our our anchor partner which is Janel we have access to this entire world of small water Enterprises that are running
(18:29) these water treatment plants that are grossly underutilized in terms of capacity and we have the ability to go work with them get them to become the points of delivery bring all that dispensing data on chain so every nft that we are issuing is Al is actually going to be backed up with granular level data of which consumers on what date at what time in which GPS location part of the world received how much water of what quality that is where that is where that nft so what we are working towards is graduating that nft into a full blown
(19:08) water credit so just like today the world has carbon credits to offset their carbon footprint we are now shaping a water credit that will allow corporations to offset their water footprint which is as valuable if not more under the C ESG reporting and ESG accountability indeed I mean how many of us know every pair of jeans we wear cost 10,000 L of water every t-shirt or shirt we wear costs 4,000 lers of water every cup of coffee we drink cost 150 lers of water wow yeah so that is where we we going with this and this is why this is
(19:47) the Big Water Protocol it is I mean it’s it’s like I said it’s fascinating how how the how the how the tokenomics aligns with the incentive structure in a society and and you know towards a better environment but Dr parag something that is not very clear to me at least is is how how does a water purifier H how how does it owning a water purifier and contributing to the network how does that help assure the the 1,000 liters of water to the to the needed communities how does how does that work yeah so you mean how does
(20:26) operating an air purifier not a water purif yes an an air purifier exactly uhhuh correct so you’re operating the air purifier in your house but that air purifier has enabled 1,000 lers of water to be delivered it’s at it’s at an arms length I mean there is no connection between this device and water but the connection is that this device has enabled of 1000 L of water and when I say enabled means it’s actually funded it’s it’s paid for 1,000 L of water that is contributed Now by you and that is
(21:02) delivered to underserved communities that cannot afford expensive packaged water you see I I’m going to say a not very good thing but in a good way bad water has remained a poor man’s problem but bad air remains a rich man’s problem those who can afford it have mitigated their bad water situation by being able to afford expensive packaged water and it just comes very naturally to us people are drinking the avons of the world people are drinking the perers of the world and for them it’s it’s a way of
(21:36) life it’s it’s it’s what life is but they cannot even imagine what life is for those communities which actually happens to center of the world that does not have access to Safe Drinking Water or to or to portable water and are plagued with waterborne diseases are suffering illnesses and there so on so forth that’s a that’s a whole different gamut of problems on the other side so this is what this is what as our anchor partner brings in and the capability of delivering a thousand liters of water
(22:13) can you imagine I mean we almost you know so for the last 15 years I’ve been an advocate of Clean Water myself I’ve been a social entrepreneur I’ve spoken on global global forums and you know platforms and I’ve always challenged any other in the world to deliver water as sustainably reliably equitably and frugally as we can nobody else can deliver th000 lers of Water by and deliver a device deliver clean air deliver rewards all of this bundled into $180 yeah I noticed when I I’m reading the description so it’s you buy this
(22:54) device you get clear you get the air of course benefit for yourself but you also give a th000 liters of water do you do you mind sharing how that how does that work so what what when you install the device and you connect it with to our mobile app that you would download you will actually start recording metrics these metrics are weather metrics so it’s basically temperature humidity aqi PM 2.
(23:22) 5 you know before after Data before the the the ambient parameters and then your indoor parameters now all this data is what you would share with us and that is theism of participation and in in this data we will be putting together analyzing putting into data sets and then we will actually be monetizing that data at some point in time going forward what we are doing is we are sharing part of that monetization with you as rewards and from the rest what we are doing is meeting this obligation that we are taking up upon ourselves of delivering 1,000 lers of water two
(23:59) communities that’s great I hope I’ve answered your question it’s clear yeah okay so the data somehow the the air data somehow contributes to to understanding the water data as well is is that am I so what we doing at The Brick Water Protocol is on one side while we are gathering air data and weather data we also collecting water data because the dispensing is happening on chain right so we actually recording raw water data and treated water data and consumption data on the other side now having this
(24:37) holistically provides a data subcriber to this data complete information on air and water situation in different parts of in different territories as we expand our footprint and that is something that becomes extremely valuable so let me let’s say you’re you’re you’re a big investor and you know you’re trying to look at a a steel manufacturing project which is being set up in Indonesia now one of the things you really want to know is what is the air and water situation in that particular
(25:08) territory where this plant is being set up is there even going to be water available for the next 30 Years I mean when you look at a steel manufacturing plant you’re looking at probably break even at 12 or 14 years from the day of starting maybe and that that’s a dancing gold poost so that’s going to move move forward to maybe 16 or 18 years as you go forward now are those projections even bankable because if without water or suitable quality of water you’re not going to be able to meet your
(25:37) projections let’s take another situation here let’s say you are a real estate buyer you need to know what is the air quality and the water quality of at that particular project that you’re seeking to invest in or that is soliciting itself for your investment if there is I mean I come from a city back in India where a complete new a complete new part of the suburb was sold out and for the last and this was sold out 15 years ago by developers even today 15 years later there is no piped water Connection in 100% of the
(26:12) buildings people are rers for their daily water supply because nobody ever thought that there wouldn’t be a water pipe water connection there if a project is being sold so I’m just saying that there is a real estate angle to this where the value of real estate is now also being assessed by assessing what is the air and water quality situation in that area and as we all know this in in in one city the air and water quality is not constant around the city and across the city I mean I speak for emerging
(26:44) markets I speak for developing and underdeveloped countries I don’t necessarily speak only for developed for the developed countries because there you may have certain exceptions okay how will we be able to see reports of this progress over time I mean I think it’s exciting for the community to to you know see this happening and as it’s I mean sounds like amazing difference we can all make with with this project I missed the question how you know how can we keep up to dat of the effects as this starts to roll
(27:16) out I know we haven’t really fully launched yet but once we launch and things are moving like there ways people can see updates and and and as a community and and see the devel absolutely I think we’re very excited about you know com you know putting us that for us is a big win I have to sh say that here we we are also launching our own e-commerce site so the bigwater doio website is where a lot of information will keep getting updated on on a daily basis and that’s where people can even come in and and you know
(27:45) procure devices but on the other side there is a wait list we’re inviting people to participate and we will extend invitations for to them to become brand ambassadors and also give the issue an affiliate code to them so they can actually become ambassadors for this and they can encar more people around around them and in their communities to to adopt this and participate in this initiative besides that there will be mailers created you know all the email addresses all those who sign up we have a telegram group we have a Discord group
(28:17) groups we’ll have you know communities being created there and managed of course on X please go out and follow us on our X handle as well um you know there’s going to be a huge amount of digital marketing that’s going to be started across Instagram Tik Tok and so many Reddit or so many other platforms so you know the teams are working 24/7 right now to basically you know put all Wheels in Motion but as far as we are concerned I mean you know it’s it’s only a matter of hours now before we start
(28:47) activating all these channels sequentially to begin with and then start operating them concurrently okay do Dr parag is there is there a way for someone purchasing your air purifier yes can you hear me hello hello can you hear me hello oh darn hello hello I hear Jose and I hear Dr progue oh oh seems we’re having problem hear us I hear him saying hello do you hear me yeah now I can yeah yeah I hear you Mike you can hear Jose you can hear Dr perogue right yes yes I can hear Dr okay sometimes in Twitter spaces actually it
(29:33) does that where certain people can’t Hur other people so I’m glad anyway okay so how does someone purchasing your air purifier uh is there any way for that person to monitor the impact of his investment in terms of water and water being delivered to un un underserved communities and and you know and the air itself yes as as far as the air metrics are concerned they’re own app will show them you know how that is going but as far as the water side is concerned we will we are working on creating that
(30:07) that accessibility to that particular dashboard where they can see which are the communities they’ve impacted in which region how you know and when did that thousand lers get delivered like I said the the traceability of that 1,000 L is going to be down to the drop so it’s and that is something that we committed to and we understand how to do it it is because something that that is something we’re already doing for the last almost 10 years we’ve collected we’ve gathered a billion data point said
(30:38) earlier just from dispensing water Janel Remains the only Innovative technology selected by the government of India for large scale implementation across urban and rural areas so what Janel has basically championed is last mild delivery of Safe Water it is actually called The Uber of Water by so many people wow and because people can it’s what safe water on on demand it’s people who can use their mobile app order water it gets delivered to their doorstep in a three wheer Tuk Tok and then they collect water for as little as one one
(31:13) US Cent per liter and that is where we are the frugality comes in the ability to eliminate unnecessary costs associated with clean water is that ability is unique the ability is a worthwhile project and I was thinking as I was listening to one of your examples in the real estate example how that could contribute to actually have place an objective value on a certain piece of of real estate you know like having access to all the all the variables all the all the water and air quality variables that that that should you know
(31:50) that should sort of keep the economy the the real estate economy sincere right no absolutely absolutely and that is precis I mean you know it’s it’s another not so good example but you know the recent fires that took place in La and I don’t know how many of us read over there that uh just a few months before these fires actually took place all the insurance companies withdrew the Fire cover from the insurance policies had data that led them to believe that was a major Hazard going forward in the year ahead so they
(32:23) actually sneaked out the fire coverage from every insurance policy wow I I didn’t know that and and you know that’s that’s another thing that your project I I find so fascinating about is that it puts all this data into the hands of people like us normal people like us that is exactly the point that empowering individuals to oh somebody else’s judgment assessment and perhaps credibility which would which I dare say could be entirely misplaced yep so now people can take individuals can take their own decisions
(33:00) powered by this data so the sub the the value of this data does not merely you know focus upon or is not dependent only on corporations or organizations or companies even individuals can subscribe to this data and basically make their own decisions depending on what they’re trying to do yeah Dr parag I I don’t know if you’re getting cut off or or there’s a little bit of a delay no you know there’s a little but I hear so I think let’s yeah this has been a fascinating discussion I think let’s
(33:32) move to the finals I can hear you do you hear us Jose do you hear me yeah I can hear both of you fine but sometimes you’re getting cut off maybe it’s my connection or something I don’t know any I think this has been a fascinating hello discussion maybe it doesn’t hear us hello yeah I think that’s what’s happening I think he’s not hearing us well I think last section which is like you know the dates we we’ we’ve picked March 20th as our launch yeah I don’t think he’s hearing
(34:05) can say something Jose maybe he doesn’t hear us yeah um I don’t think you’re hearing us Dr parag but we’re hearing you no we’re we’re not hearing you sorry oh yes we are now yeah I think if we don’t get it we can we could we could kind of speak for him on this last section anyway I think we got the the good really good insights yes here I am sorry no problem yeah this is always somewhat like this with Twitter but we still like this platform even though it does this but okay you’re back I think
(34:35) let’s get to the the last section the dates you know I think been talking about the pricing we we are gonna go live on our Hamza decom Marketplace next week the 20th Jose you’re on mute Jose you’re muted yes I’m on mute just to let you guys speak sorry okay so March 20th we’re going to go live on Hamza so people that want to use crypto to to pay can do so and and do you want to share a little bit about the the timelines and such Dr brog he’s back as a listener he’s back as a listener yes we at
(35:09) Twitter well I think I think we got a lot of insights from him already or are you back yes oh you’re here you’re here okay you want to share a little bit about our the launch we’re doing and and the dates and and things like that people can get some timelines yes absolutely I think you know you indicated that we’re on the stage stay you know currently at Hamza and we should go live in about a week there we’re expecting to go live before this weekend on our website and you know these two for now would be the the best
(35:40) places to find you know and and for people to to procure their deepen device I mean even those who have one at home can probably get a second or a third because the good news is every room in our life needs one it’s not just one I would strongly encourage people to do this not just from the from the initiative’s point of view but also their own personal welfare I think you know getting a an air purifier is a better investment than eventually you know going down the route of taking medicines in India I I can tell you a
(36:13) lot of doctors are now prescribing air purifiers to their patients simply because they’ve started to say that all the medication in the world will not cure you if you don’t give yourself better air to breathe so I think does a huge service to people our price points have been worked out have been calibrated in and are commensurate with Market standards it’s not that this being a deepend device is is exorbitantly expensive it’s just a question of people noticing it and then you know reaching out to get get one for
(36:50) themselves great thank you so much I think this is a good way to wrap it up and we’ll we’ll definitely keep more updates and then inv for next week we’ll have this live we’ll be sharing on all of our channels and I look forward to doing a lot more together with big water thanks for sharing thank you thank you once again uh thank all of you for having me here and I look forward to many more of these post you know once the launch is is complete especially on Hamza perfect thank you so much everybody yes thanks
(37:21) thanks so much Dr brag and everybody for listening oh [Music]

The Problem with Traditional E-Commerce

Right now, centralized platforms dictate how you do business:

Excessive Fees – Hidden charges and commissions eat into your revenue.
Opaque Rules – Sudden policy changes can destroy your business overnight.
Data Exploitation – Your store’s reputation and sales history belong to them, not you.
Fund Custody Issues – Payout delays, frozen funds, or outright confiscation.

Hamza changes the game by offering an alternative built for sellers, not platforms.

Why Hamza is Different

Keep More of Your Profits – Just a simple 5% fee. No hidden deductions.
You Set the Rules – No arbitrary policies or marketing restrictions.
Your Data, Your Store – Your sales history and reputation are yours forever.
Escrow Smart Contracts – No middleman holds your money—payments are secured on-chain.
Decentralized Future – The platform is moving toward community governance, where sellers and buyers decide its direction.

Hamza allows sellers to price competitively without inflated costs. More importantly, it treats all participants as part of a broader, interconnected ecosystem rather than just another revenue source.

Secure Transactions with Escrow Smart Contracts

To ensure financial security and trust, Hamza now utilizes escrow smart contracts for payments:

Funds Are Secure – Payments are locked in an individual smart contract until the transaction is completed.
No More Middlemen – Unlike centralized platforms, no one can freeze or confiscate your earnings.
True Seller Protection – This upgrade replaces the old multi-signature system with a fully automated, trustless solution.

This is a critical step toward a true decentralized commerce (Decom) experience—one where sellers and buyers are in full control of their transactions.

How to Become a Seller on Hamza

Ready to break free? Here’s how to get started:

• Have Products to Sell – Physical or digital goods are welcome.
• Set Up a Web3 Wallet – A self-custody wallet is required to log in, create escrow contracts, and receive payments.
• Apply to Sell – Since we are in beta, you’ll need to submit an application [here].

Right now, applications are manually reviewed, but this process will evolve as Hamza shifts toward full decentralization. Be sure to indicate what you plan to sell and provide contact details (email, Telegram, or Discord) for follow-up.

The Time to Switch is Now

Every day, centralized platforms become more restrictive, costly, and exploitative. Sellers are being squeezed out, and the risk of losing access to your own business is real. Hamza is here to put control back in your hands.

If you’re tired of playing by someone else’s rules, make the move today. Apply now and start selling—on your terms.
