Manage episode 508940638 series 3377311
In this episode of the Azizi Podcast, Samir Azizi sits down with Nabu (@nabu_lines), the dynamic force behind external partnerships, community, and KOLs at Ledger.
From building one of Iran’s first Groupon-style startups and selling it for $1M, to surviving the highs and lows of NFT launches, to becoming a respected voice in Web3, Nabu’s journey is anything but ordinary.
We dive deep into:
• How Nabu transitioned from Web2 startups in a sanctioned country to thriving in Web3.
• The challenges of launching NFTs under restrictions and what it taught him about resilience.
• Why community trust matters more than short-term profits.
• How he built authentic influence and avoided the meme coin trap.
• Behind the scenes of working with Ledger, the global leader in self-custody and crypto security.
• His thoughts on Solana Startup Village in Toronto, Web3 culture, and why he’s committed to pushing the Canadian Web3 scene for the next 5 years.
If you’re into crypto, NFTs, Web3 community building, partnerships, or self-custody education, this conversation is packed with insights and stories you won’t want to miss.
