Hamza Labs Weekly Map Update: May 4 – 10 2025

May 5, 2025

A full week in the month of May, with April being a bigger month of transition. We are extending our runway by making hard cuts and working hard on finding product market fit. 

Our main goals right now:

Cross-chain & bitcoin payments – this is a core feature we are so excited to deploy, but will allow payments to be made anywhere – Bitcoin. EVM, fiat, and then flow into the smart contract escrow and dispute system. 

Discount codes – this is the early stage beginnings to a full blown affiliate system, but we are starting with a coupon code / discount code system so we can give the merchants ability to create them and 

Seller onboarding – making it more automatic and streamlined. Easier said than done. 

Investment search – Mike has collected a ton of feedback, it is creating pivots and spin offs.

Dealmaker.space early stage front end development. Mike is approved by foundation to put resources from BD / his side to build this out as a high value transaction service using Decom framework and infra.

Marketing, twitter spaces – Anne and Jose are working more independently now and working on organic growth with some small paid X ads. 

Venezuela market – excited to support Jose more on his local initiatives. Feels this is a needed platform in the market there.

We are in the “messy middle” of a startup, extending runway, working on a few testing angles to get best product market fit, and doing the hard things to get ahead.
