SiBorg is creating a mobile app that repurposes Twitter Spaces for post-live access via a Spotify-like interface. SiBorg aims to create a creator-owned platform leveraging Web3 for enhanced user engagement, monetization, and curation. Backed by @swissborg.
OG tip: Subscribe using your wallet address to earn referral rewards and potential airdrops on Base & Polygon.
Introducing SiBorg
Imagine a blend of podcasts and Spaces, enhanced by Web3 technology. That’s SiBorg – backed by SwissBorg, leveraging the Polygon network, and ready to revolutionize audio content.
Flexible Login Options: SiBorg welcomes everyone, offering multiple ways to sign in, including crypto wallet, Lens Protocol, X, Google, and Apple. Pick your method and step into a new era.
Integration with Lens Protocol: SiBorg incorporates Lens Protocol for enhanced decentralized interactions. Here’s what’s on offer:
• Clear Transactions: Polygon ensures you can track where your contributions go.
• Community Control: Integrating with Lens Protocol gives more power to users.
• Future-Ready: Starting with Web2 logins, SiBorg aims to fully embrace Lens Protocol, moving towards a decentralized future.
Why SiBorg? 🤔
In today's world, access to media and information is incredibly simple. However, most communication channels are often distorted by the quest to earn and retain user attention, driven by SEO and similar tactics, which can distort the content. SiBorg was created to highlight the form of content that remains most authentic in our eyes: the podcast.
Moreover, while content is accessible to everyone, a certain level of education or curation is necessary to successfully extract relevant information from these contents. SiBorg aims to address this by not only promoting podcasts and tackling monetization and visibility issues but also by providing a layer of curation performed by the community.
SiBorg is more than just an app. It’s a portal to a community-driven digital environment where every user’s voice is significant. With plans to further integrate Lens Protocol, SiBorg is setting the stage for a decentralized social media revolution. Maybe later also Farcaster? 👀
Community and Tokens 🤝
The heart of SiBorg is its dynamic community, guided by the $SIB token. From governance to utility, SiBorg is creating an ecosystem where creators and users thrive together.
Our Perspective
SiBorg smartly balances decentralization with broad accessibility through diverse login options. The focus on a governance ecosystem and future Lens integrations makes it a platform to watch.

Currently in an invite-only beta phase on Testflight for Apple and available on Google Play. Reach out for an invite (mention you're from the Bros crew) to get early access.

Last weekend, all roads led to Rome for the grand event of the year: NFT Rome. This was the place to be for everything Web3, gaming, art, and innovation.
What’s NFT Rome?
NFT Rome is a vibrant hub for the Web3 economy, blending gaming, creativity, style, arts, and communication. The event was packed with top-tier digital artists, pioneering projects, and leading brands from various sectors, making it a melting pot of innovation and creativity.
Event Highlights 👀
June 7-8: Horti Sallustiani
The main event unfolded at Horti Sallustiani, an ancient site once owned by Sallustio, a buddy of Julius Caesar. Attendees were treated to an array of speeches and panels featuring digital artists and Web3 communities. Industry leaders from luxury, fashion, automotive, travel, real estate, and finance sectors shared their insights, creating a rich tapestry of knowledge and inspiration.
June 9: La Rinascente
The grand finale took place at La Rinascente in Piazza Fiume with a Digital Art Shopping Night. This exclusive evening, featuring a DJ set and internationally renowned artists, was a unique celebration of digital art.
Web3 Artists and Monniverse 🧜♀️
Our very own Carla Monni was not only an ambassador but also a speaker at the event. She introduced her project, Monniverse, and showcased one of her NFT Mermaid creations, voted among the top 11 by the NFT Rome community.
Curious about Carla's project? Check it out here: https://www.monniverse.xyz/
The Phaver and Lens Crew 🤝
Our friends from Phaver Stanislav Titusko, Antonella Monni (to name a few)—were also in attendance, along with Tommy Thomas. They hung out together, enjoyed some beers, and immersed themselves in the event.
Tommy's feedback on the event?
"IRL events will always be the alpha. Glad I was able to be part of NFT Rome and experience their blend of Web3 and art in the historic city of Rome. Massive applause to the team! It was a pleasure meeting everyone I did in Rome. I'll have to catch you at the next one."
Tommy also spread the word about Lens across the event, noting that "All were super bullish after seeing how comprehensive the ecosystem is and learning about the culture."
Looking Ahead 🔮
FOMO was real, but we’re excited for next year when the Bros will hopefully head to NFT Rome. There's room for improvement in scheduling crypto/Web3 conferences, as many overlap. Maybe it's time for a committee to coordinate better.
NFT Rome was epic. Salute, fratelli! 🍻
After a well-deserved week off, we're back to discuss the latest IRL events some of us attended. This week, Carla Monni, Tommy Thomas and Yakuza will talk about ETH Prague and NFT Rome and all things IRL events!

Hey Bros! Ready to dive into Austria’s beer scene? Let's talk about the most popular brew: Märzen!
What’s Märzen? 🤔
Think of a lager with a rich history. Märzen, or March beer, hails from Bavaria, Germany. Medium to full-bodied, this beer was the star of Oktoberfest.
A Bit of History 👀
Back in 1553, Bavaria said no more brewing in summer to avoid spoiled beer. So, they brewed Märzen in March, made it stronger, and stored it cool for autumn parties.
Märzen Today 😲
While it’s a rare find in Germany, Märzen is Austria’s go-to beer. It’s lighter, sweeter, and perfect for any festivity. Imagine a Bavarian Helles, but with more color and flavor.
Flavor Vibes ☺️
Expect a balanced brew with rich malt and clean hop bitterness, plus some toasted bread or biscuit notes. Alcohol content? A comfy 5.1-6.0%.
Global Love 🌐
From Czech Republic to Lithuania and Poland, Märzen-style beers are loved worldwide, each with its unique spin.
Austria’s Gem 💎
Golden to amber and perfect for any occasion, Märzen is Austria’s beer pride. So, grab a Märzen, kick back, and enjoy Austria’s beer treasure. Prost🍻
And that's it for this week!
