What Does a Builder Look Like?

A "Builder" is any team or individual working to build something new in Web3. They are the people behind tokens, NFT collections, real-world asset integrations, and decentralized applications. Builders do not just have ideas - they are actively working to bring them to life. Our goal is to help them achieve their vision faster.
Building a Web3 project means navigating a constantly evolving landscape. It is about more than just development; it is about making strategic connections, solving complex problems, and finding the right partners to support your growth. Whether you need a security audit, liquidity for launch, or help getting listed on a DEX, these are challenges every Builder faces.
Builders play an active role in this marketplace. By creating a profile and making specific, clear requests, they open the door to meaningful support from Service Providers. Clear communication and timely responses are key to moving quickly and getting the support they need.
If you are creating something in Web3 - no matter the size or scope - you are a Builder. This platform exists to help you find the resources, partners, and support you need to move from idea to execution. If this all sounds familiar, you are in the right place.
With such a fast moving and expanding space, we have seen many different ways to classify projects. We believe that the CoinDesk Digital Asset Classification Standard (DACS) are best in class. This standard does an incredible job of including all types of Web3 businesses while at the same time not ending up with hundreds of categories like many other classifications in Web3. The idea of standardizing these codes is reminiscent of the NAICS and GICS codes from Web2. We have adopted these on our platform because we believe that standardizing these categories is an easy way to streamline communications when discussing projects.
If your project can be classified under any of these categories, come check out Serious AMM.
We used the initial DACS framework, but updated a few things as the current DACS was missing critical categories.
Added ‘Artificial Intelligence’ - The framework had zero reference to AI or any similar type category so we added this. This is critical to include.
Added ‘NFT’ - The framework buckets this in the ‘Art’ category, but we got consistent feedback that no one thought of NFT’s when they saw ‘Art’ so to avoid confusion we gave NFT’s their own category.
Added ‘Memecoins’ - Regardless of anyone's stance on if these are helpful to our industry they have more than enough marketshare to warrant their own bucket. The current DACS do not reference memecoins anywhere, resulting in a huge gap.
We changed ‘Digitization’ to ‘RWA’ - This category was vague in the first place, it’s the only category that literally is the same for all three levels of classification. There was no ‘Real World Asset’ category, and Digitization mapped the closest to it in our opinion so we changed that category to be more clear and include an obvious category.
