Welcome to Season 3 — Protein Community
June 1st, 2022
Our first two seasons have given us an idea of what our building blocks are: a highly capable and creative community that cares about using web3 for good; a global network of experts whose combined force knows no bounds; a forward-looking set of investors who see the opportunity; and a token that powers our internal economy and gives ownership to our members.
