What is your project, and what problem does it solve?
Degens The Series is a cinematic TV show inspired by the HBO series Silicon Valley. It follows the story of the two founders striving to establish a decentralized protocol. They will face the unique challenges present in the crypto ecosystem.
We believe there's a need for a creative movie that features the builders, as well as the cultural and social aspects of crypto (and not only the bad parts)
