Bello was our first attempt at solving a problem we deeply believed in: giving creators and brands the tools to understand their onchain audience. 1

For over two years, we built a marketing analytics solution to help unlock the power of blockchain data.

Despite working with customers like Yuga Labs, Doodles, Base, Lens, XMTP, Thirdweb, ConsenSys, 9dcc, Bankless, and many others, we found ourselves less excited about building SaaS products in crypto. 
 3

What truly energized us was the opportunity to bring our business model onchain. 
 4

The idea of marketing analytics was solid, but the execution didn’t land where it needed to. 
 5

It was an extension of our team’s story, like helping us win the ETH Global hackathon and getting us into a16z's Crypto Startup Accelerator. 
 7


But holding onto Bello meant holding back progress, and we had to face the reality that it wasn’t working and move forward. 
 8


That’s what brought us to Blueprint.

Blueprint wasn’t an instant pivot. 
 
It took months of testing and learning through my podcast, Mint, to figure out how to create something that truly resonated. 
 11


We experimented with engaging audiences, structuring token incentives, and aligning goals between creators and collectors. 
 12


Gradually, it all clicked. 
 
What emerged was Blueprint: a structured program and framework that connects token projects and creators. 
 13


We match token projects with the best crypto-native creators, using grants to incentivize content creation and our proven framework to teach creators how to go viral onchain. 
 14


It’s the culmination of everything we’ve learned and everything we want to build, designed to help creators grow their audiences, monetize their content, and bring their traditional followers onchain. 
 15


Bello was the first chapter, but Blueprint is the way forward. 
 
It’s where all our focus is now, and it’s the path we’re committed to for building. 
 
16


Analytics provided value, but it stopped at insights. 
 18


It didn’t drive the actual engagement creators or brands needed to grow their audience or get them paid doing what they love. 
 19


While we had compelling case studies, transitioning to a self-service platform made it harder to track success stories and 20

quantify the value Bello provided in driving results. 
 
This gap highlighted a key issue: insights alone weren’t enough 21

to create meaningful outcomes for customers. 
 22


Blueprint addresses this challenge by going beyond insights and 23

actively driving top-line participation. 
 24


By combining incentives, onboarding tools, and community-building strategies, we enable creators to directly connect with collectors and build sustainable careers. 25
