I m Prime, a product designer based in Nigeria. I design fintech, Web3, and digital products with a focus on simplifying complex experiences through clear UX and clean interfaces.
I ve worked on wallets, dashboards, trading platforms, and e-commerce products, and I m currently exploring more around UX audits and product strategy.
Excited to connect with other builders and creatives here
I'm Marco, founder of Valtiqo. I wanted to introduce myself properly.
I'm self-taught I never went to university for coding. I learned by building. Over the past year I've built algorithmic trading bots, crypto infrastructure tools, and most recently Valtiqo an AI-powered crypto card.
The thing that pushed me to build Valtiqo was simple frustration. I hold crypto and I couldn't spend it without jumping through 5 hoops. I looked at what existed and nothing was built for people who actually live in crypto.
So I built it myself. Mobile app, web app, backend, brand solo, in weeks.
Today we launched on Product Hunt and it feels surreal.
Happy to talk about:
Building solo as a self-taught developer
The crypto card space and why it's broken
What it's like raising pre-seed as a first time founder
What's the hardest part of building solo that you've experienced?
Looking for ideas to continue my journey of building AI powered apps, agents, & more. I truly believe that I can learn anything and would appreciate any advice on what to build. I have built an AI receptionist using Eleven labs, an AI scout for a soccer team, and a chat bot that tracks/predicts Crypto trends. Let's build!
I m Lucas. For years, I ve stayed entirely off social media, living a nomadic lifestyle, practicing yoga, and hitchhiking across the West Coast after leaving southern Utah.
I work around civic and climate data projects, especially public datasets, local dashboards, mapping, and community-focused reporting.
I m especially interested in tools that make data easier to clean, understand, publish, and maintain over time. A beautiful dashboard is only useful if the people affected can access it, understand it, and trust where the data came from.
I like practical, transparent tools that support public-interest work without requiring big budgets or heavy technical teams. Good open-data tools should make messy information more usable, not just prettier.
I work around defensive security workflows, mostly logs, detections, alerts, permissions, and incident response processes.
I m especially interested in products that improve visibility, reduce false positives, and make security teams faster without removing human judgment. Automation is useful when the signal is reliable and the action is reviewable.
I like tools that are clear about permissions, failure modes, audit logs, and how teams can investigate what happened later. Good security tooling should reduce guessing, not add another black box.
I'll be in SF during the first half of June and was wondering if there are any must-attend startup events, meetups, or founder gatherings happening around that time. Would love to connect with the local scene any recommendations appreciated!
Hi everyone! I'm Felipe, a developer who kept watching my Claude API bill climb every month hit $340 and decided to actually fix it instead of just accepting it.
I spent a few weeks auditing every API call and found the same 3 patterns eating 75%+ of my costs: no prompt caching, wrong model selection, and paying for silence on non-streaming calls.
