57Blocks

We're hiring an Account Executive in the Bay Area. At 57Blocks, we've spent eight years building something rare: a bootstrapped, profitable, AI-native technology services firm with 200+ engineers and a client list that includes Google, Apple, Autodesk, Fanatics, and Stanford University. What's changed recently is the how. We built our own agentic PDLC stack in-house, tooling that lets our engineers compress timelines and deliver at a pace that changes the conversation with buyers. Roughly 83% of our MVPs convert into long-term engagements. That's not a sales number. That's a delivery number. The Bay Area is racing to define what an AI-native services company looks like. We're building it. We need a true hunter who can carry a differentiated technical pitch and close new logos across both top technology companies and mid-market enterprises. Seven-plus years of experience, Bay Area-based, and hungry to sell something that actually converts. https://lnkd.in/gwUqSvWJ

Excited to be part of Stellar Development Foundation Demo Day. 🎉 We were showing #BlockSmith, a dev toolkit we built for Soroban smart contracts on Stellar. One workflow to write tests, run local networks, deploy, and analyze performance. Everything stays in Rust, from local testing to production. If you missed it live, you can see it here. 👇

Heading to Digital Asset Summit 2026 next week! ✈️ If you're building in #payments, #stablecoins, #lending, or wallet infrastructure — let's connect. Always great to catch up with familiar faces and meet new ones. Drop me a message if you'd like to grab a coffee ☕ #DAS #Web3 #Blockchain

At today’s #GTC keynote, Jensen Huang issued a clear directive: "Every company needs an OpenClaw strategy." As the industry pivots toward "Generative-as-a-Service" offerings, the focus has shifted from experimental AI to scalable, production-grade agents. 57Blocks has it figured out. Join us at 2:30 PM this Wednesday 3/18 to see how we are using Claws and GMI Cloud’s Model-as-a-Service (MaaS) Platform to deliver real production use cases live: 💻 Demo #1 — MVP Development: Building and deploying production-level MVPs in days, not months.  👨🏻🔧 Demo #2 — Data Labeling: Reducing manual multimodal overhead by 70% via agentic orchestration. 🏦 Demo #3 — Fund Management: Achieving 20x productivity gains in DeFi protocol due diligence using Claw agents. We will walk you through the technical architecture and how the GMI MaaS platform accelerates them into production. Don’t just plan your OpenClaw strategy, see one in action. Live at GTC | Wednesday, March 18, 2026 | 2:30 PM Location: GMI Cloud GTC Booth #142

Two weeks ago at @ EthDenver, we hosted a panel on the future of money. We want to thank our speakers: Ada Vaughan — Stellar Development Foundation Finn Veje — Rain Chase Merlin — Brale Momin Ahmad — Credit Coop Host — Kevin Wang ✍ Here are a few takeaways: 1. Regulation is no longer the constraint — institutions have moved from “Is this legal?” to “How do we build this responsibly?” Vendors who help them navigate that transition have a real advantage. 2. The stack is consolidating — no enterprise wants 15 vendors to launch a stablecoin product. The bundlers and clean integrators win. 3. Emerging markets have real PMF — stablecoins are delivering dollar access, international payments, and DeFi yield to users who don’t know they’re using DeFi. The abstraction layer is working. 4. What’s still missing — scalability, enterprise-grade privacy, FX liquidity in long-tail corridors, and UX for mainstream users. The industry is maturing, but the hard problems are not solved. 5. AI is already inside the workflow — and agentic payments (autonomous software executing transactions) are the next honest question on the regulatory agenda. 6. Compliance is a long-term strategy, not a box — durability matters more than speed. Thanks to everyone who came. 🚀 — 👉 Curious about what we’re building on the DeFi infrastructure side? We built Capstack Cortex to automate DeFi due diligence for our own fund. Message us, and we will share the demo link

On February 17th at @ ETHDenver, we co-hosted a private DeFi Founder & Fund Lunch with SVB We brought together DeFi founders, protocols, stablecoin rails, intent/interop, MEV/risk, perps/options, RWAs, and infra alongside funds and angels actively deploying in the space, to share conversations around product wedges, distribution, risk management, and what it looks like to move from experimentation to durable revenue. We also walked through #Capstack — the AI system we use to manage our own DeFi yield fund. The full #demo is here https://lnkd.in/e2nS8vht Thanks to everyone for making the space valuable. See you next time!

Web3 usability shouldn’t be a privilege; it should be the standard. Even with incredible innovation across blockchains, fragmentation, complex UX, and technical barriers continue to limit adoption. But change is on the horizon. Together with our partners at LI.FI, our Head of Europe, Kamil Krupa, explores how intent-based systems are redefining cross-chain interoperability — making crypto simpler, safer, and more intuitive for everyone. From the Open Intents Framework (ERC-7683) to solver-driven execution, this evolution is setting the foundation for the next generation of seamless, user-centric Web3 experiences.

57Blocks at VanAI Summit 2025 – Building the Future of Enterprise AI This week, our VP of Strategy & Growth, Traci Flitcraft, took the stage at VanAI Summit in Vancouver to lead a masterclass on “Enterprise-Ready AI: Selling, Scaling, and Integrating for Real Impact.” We were inspired by what we saw across Canada’s fast-growing AI ecosystem. The country is making bold investments to position Vancouver as a global AI hub — attracting world-class talent and accelerating responsible AI adoption across government, academia, and industry. Key takeaways shaping how we think about the future of enterprise AI: ✅ Governments are leading innovation, funding real AI integration projects across public systems. ✅ Universities are building pipelines of AI-ready talent and collaborating directly with industry. ✅ Ethics and governance are driving strategy, not just technology — a shift from AI products to AI implementation. As 57Blocks continues to help organizations discover, map, and embed AI into their operations, it’s clear the next wave of transformation will come from those who integrate responsibly and scale sustainably. Thank you to the VanAI Summit community for an inspiring week of collaboration and vision. #57Blocks #AI #EnterpriseAI #AIGovernance #DigitalTransformation #VanAISummit #Leadership
