Hello everyone,

Today, I’m excited to share some news with you that marks a new chapter in my professional journey. After three enriching years at the helm of Pangolin, I’ve decided to embark on a new venture. It’s with great enthusiasm that I introduce Ortege — a startup that promises to be not just a business, but a beacon of innovation.

Ortege is more than just a company; it’s the culmination of my years in the crypto and blockchain space, harnessing the lessons, experiences, and insights I’ve gathered along the way. It’s an embodiment of my belief in the transformative power of technology, and my commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Joining me in this adventure is Firat Akkan, a remarkable individual with an impressive background. Firat brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to Ortege. His journey from being a lawyer to pursuing an MBA at Yale, and his subsequent roles in business development and web3 initiatives, make him an invaluable co-founder. Together, we share a vision for Ortege — to create solutions that are not only technologically advanced but also accessible and impactful.

Ortege is an innovative data platform designed to seamlessly integrate blockchain and real-world data with a focus on modularity and the Bitcoin ecosystem. Our Proof of Concept is fully developed. After our MVP is ready by February, the next phase will involve the development of sophisticated blockchain ML/AI models that will harness the full power of our data platform. As a result, our users will have lightning-fast access to critical insights in the dynamic realm of web3, empowering them to make well-informed decisions in real-time.

As we start this journey, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude. The experiences I’ve had, the people I’ve met, and the challenges I’ve overcome in the past few years have been instrumental in leading me to this point. Ortege is not just a new business; it’s a new beginning, a chance to redefine what we can achieve when technology and passion come together.

In the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing more about our plans, products, and the impact we aim to make. I invite you to join us on this exciting journey. Follow us on https://twitter.com/ortegexyz, and stay tuned for updates.

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement. Here’s to new beginnings and the endless possibilities that lie ahead!
