March Was Wild — Here’s What Went Down (and What’s Coming)

The momentum continues

We advanced our work with partners, supported founders through the Lisk Pioneer Program, and hosted events that moved projects from pitch to progress. Our network continued to grow across blockchain and fintech ecosystems, with a focus on practical adoption—not hype.
