Taking a closer look into some of the projects from the Launchpool Web3 Techstars Accelerator.
Rewarding creativity, encouraging active participation.
Let’s take a look at three projects in the Launchpool Web3 Techstar Accelerator program, that are all connected by the concept of the “Creator Economy” – where independent content creators, curators and community builders can build businesses and earn revenue from their creative work.
On June 30, Techstars held a demo day in Dublin, Ireland, with participation from nine potential startups in Web3, including the three we are putting in the spotlight here:
Barterchain
Founder: Carla Rosenkranz
Description: Barterchain is a peer-to-peer barter environment where members swap skills and services for tokens. They are creating an ecosystem that makes services more accessible to users and rewards them for their time, participation, and skills.
"After graduating in languages I relocated abroad, where I worked hard as an English teacher but often found myself cash-poor. One day I was particularly stressed out and needed the likes of a yoga class, which was something I couldn't afford... and then there was a light-bulb moment. I thought "what if I offer an English class in exchange for a yoga class?" and within a week - I was getting yoga, Spanish lessons, massages and my entire house cleaned!” Rosenkranz said.
How it works:
- List your skills.
- Find a match.
- Negotiate a barter.
- Earn rewards.
Blockchain: Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)
Crowdclass
Founder: Filipe Pereira
Description: Crowdclass decentralizes and incentivizes educational content and experiences. Crowdclass allows online teachers, creators, and educators to create better learning activities and be part of an ecosystem where they can be part-owners, influence its progress, and benefit from its growth. The Crowdclass ecosystem’s utility token is called CLASS.
How it works:
- Engage: Build learning experiences; Incentivize behaviors and achievements, and distribute badges and rewards in the form of crypto and NFTs
- Teach: Find your audience; Publish your courses and learning activities in a community-owned marketplace, where you can have a voice and impact on decisions and governance.
- Earn: Monetize your activity; Get better marketplace fees and earn CLASS tokens for active participation and contribution to the community and ecosystem.
Blockchain: EVM compatible chains
Staxe
Founder: Luis Martinez
Description: Staxe tokenizes creative productions so that investors and collectors can share success. In addition to changing how creative productions are financed, the protocol enables direct exposure to creative productions as new asset classes.
How it works:
- Explore and choose from a wide range of cultural and live productions.
- Agree on the terms of the production.
- Connect your Metamask wallet to buy tokens in the production of choice.
- Exchange your cryptocurrency of choice with the production's token and confirm.
- Resulting profits are collected and distributed.
Blockchain: Ethereum, Polygon

Binance Executive Tigran Gambaryan Sues Nigeria's NSA and EFCC
The lawsuit reflects escalating tensions amidst allegations of innocence and regulatory scrutiny surrounding Binance Nigeria's alleged involvement in illicit financial activities.
The detained executive of Binance, Mr. Tigran Gambaryan, has taken legal action against Nigeria's National Security Adviser (NSA) Nuhu Ribadu, and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Gambaryan, along with the firm's Africa Regional Manager, Mr. Nadeem Anjarwalla, filed a fundamental human rights violation suit amidst ongoing legal turmoil.
Gambaryan's legal challenge, initiated alongside his lawyer Mr. Olujoke Aliyu, aims to address his prolonged detention by the federal government. The suit, presented before Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja, challenges the legality of Gambaryan's continued confinement and the seizure of his international travel passport.
Gambaryan, a US citizen overseeing financial crime compliance at Binance, contends that his detention and passport seizure violates Section 35 (1) and (4) of Nigeria's 1999 Constitution. His legal team seeks various reliefs, including his release from custody, the return of his passport, a public apology from the NSA and EFCC, and an injunction against future investigations.
Allegations of Innocence Amidst Legal Turmoil
Gambaryan and his colleague's legal representatives maintain their innocence, claiming that the arrests occurred during discussions with Nigerian authorities regarding legal conflicts involving Binance.
In a dramatic turn of events, Binance's African regional manager, Nadeem Anjarwalla, recently fled Nigerian custody. Anjarwalla's escape follows mounting tensions surrounding the Nigerian authorities' investigation into alleged illicit financial activities involving Binance Nigeria, totaling a staggering $26 billion.
