Founders



"The Orange DAO team are the blacksmiths of crypto, refining and hammering raw,
unfinished founders, ideas, and companies into gold bars. The Orange network and
team were instrumental in making critical connections for us within the
industry, asking hard questions, and supporting us through thick and thin."

Founder, Collar Protocol

"The Orange DAO Fellowship 10x'd the trajectory of the company when it comes to
fundraising & product. Before Orange DAO this was a side project. Fellowship was
a switching point. Eth.id became a real company perusing a real problem."

"Orange DAO made me a 10x better founder. We pivoted mid-batch and because of
Orange DAO we graduated with a functional MVP, key partnerships, and excited
early users. The mentors are incredibly generous with their time and expertise.
They will help you build the company of your dreams."
