Meet GGEZ1, Startups of the Year 2024 Nominee

Hey Hackers,

I’m excited to announce that GGEZ1 has been nominated for HackerNoon’s Startups of the Year 2024! What makes this even more exciting is that we’re currently leading our category for startups from Montreal, Canada.

We’re incredibly proud of how far we’ve come, but we need your help to go even further. This is a community-driven competition, meaning your votes are what will keep us in the lead. We’re asking you to take a moment to head over to the following links and vote for us here.

For those of you unfamiliar with our startup, GGEZ1 is a ReFi blockchain ecosystem specializing in tokenizing sustainability assets to create stable and transparent sustainability-backed cryptocurrency. We are creating a much better alternative to stablecoins—a cryptocurrency that combines the price stability of stablecoins with the security of being backed by diversified real-world assets.

Read more about us below to understand why we deserve your vote.

Meet GGEZ1

• GGEZ1 is a blockchain ecosystem specializing in tokenizing sustainability assets to create stable and transparent sustainability-backed cryptocurrency.

  The platform makes it possible to:

• Easily invest and trade in tokenized sustainability assets over Web3.

• Channel capital into sustainability projects.

• Promote innovative sustainability initiatives.

• We want to make it easy and fun for everyone to invest in sustainability on Web3!

How GGEZ1 achieved product-market fit

• Sustainability-backed cryptocurrency is superior to other asset-backed cryptocurrencies, such as stablecoins and gold-backed coins, because the underlying asset generates both financial returns and measurable economic and environmental impact. It combines the price stability of stablecoins with the security of being backed by diversified real-world assets.
• Cryptocurrencies backed by real-world assets will achieve broad acceptance in emerging markets because people trust the security and stability that come with tangible assets, as well as the benefits investments in sustainability bring to the region.

Milestones and achievements

• This nomination comes at a time when our project is gaining momentum and attracting attention.
• Last year, we won Best Pitch from the Middle East region at the Startup World Cup organized by Pegasus Tech Ventures, reaching the semi-finals in San Francisco in November 2023.
• Earlier this year, we also reached the semi-finals at the Leap 2024 Rocket Fuel competition in Riyadh.
• These achievements have been huge for us, and now, being nominated by HackerNoon feels like the next big step in gaining the attention and recognition we’ve worked so hard for.

What Startups of The Year means to us

HackerNoon is the go-to platform for cutting-edge technologies like Web3, blockchain, and AI, and this is why this nomination places GGEZ1 in front of a highly targeted, tech-savvy community, offering us valuable exposure to investors, developers, and tech leaders. Winning this nomination would amplify our visibility in the Web3 space and help build momentum as we continue to grow.

Conclusion

On November 17, 2024, our public mainnet goes live, marking another major milestone for us. With this launch, the blockchain coins become available for purchase, and we will begin the private coin sale, offering early investors the opportunity to join us at the best coin price available.
