day 9 of building the future of w, SIMs & cross-border chaos 📞🌍

woke up thinking:
“what if you could mint a real SIM card like an NFT?”
so i started digging into a decentralized solution where:
— you generate real international numbers (US, France, Korea, etc.)
— no voip. no fake lines.
— verified onchain. used everywhere.
telegram? ✅
steam? ✅
crypto KYC walls? bypassed like magic ✅
meanwhile, i’m on testnet highways—
bridging, swapping, clicking like airdrops owe me rent.

👀 research rabbit hole includes:
— eSIM APIs
— national regulations
— minimal KYC using web3 ID
— and how to not get sued on five continents 😅
if this works, it’s not just a dev tool—
it’s a global access weapon for users from restricted regions.

imagine deploying your SIM from a dApp dashboard.
imagine unlocking global platforms with a 1-time mint.
now imagine the airdrop incentives 💸

web3 ≠ just coins.
it’s infrastructure. it’s identity.
and soon, it’s international numbers too.
