Long Nguyen

Founder, Tentou Labs

Since meeting Leo at an event in 2023, sqrDAO has been a game-changer for me as a true builder. Being surrounded by real builders every day is an incredible learning experience. The community's focus on sharing knowledge and insights (alphas) keeps me up-to-date on the latest trends.
