About this episode
In a year-end Open Mic, the BandaWeb3 community reviewed the lessons of 2025 for Latin America's crypto ecosystem. They discussed the shift from speculative narratives to projects with real utility, the challenges of funding hackathons without falling into grant farming, and the need to improve English and inclusion at in-person events. They closed with a debate on prediction markets and expectations for a more professional 2026.
