Built by community-verified builderz
Our mission is to onboard millions of people to Web3 by helping visionaries and businesses craft innovative digital solutions. As official Superteam members, we bring community-backed expertise to every project.
Our Origins
Builderz didn't start as an agency.
It started as two people trying to survive a collapsing project.
The Beginning
Our founders met while working on early Solana NFT projects. One was building staking systems and rewards logic for a growing project when the workload quickly scaled beyond what one engineer could handle.
Through the Solana developer community, one founder found the other—a builder with the same mindset, speed, and obsession for shipping. What started as a collaboration on one project turned into a partnership—and eventually, Builderz.
The Crash
Shortly after, everything crashed.
The project ran out of funds overnight. It dissolved.
Instead of walking away, they made a decision that defined everything:
- → Keep building.
- → Double down.
- → Turn this failure into the foundation of something real.
The Transformation
That choice became Builderz.
They transformed it into a Solana-focused studio, surviving the early months by delivering client work, releasing open-source tools, and entering every Solana hackathon they could.
Those months produced:
- Builderz Solana dApp Scaffold
- xNFT Scaffold
- Internal tools that evolved into client-ready frameworks
- Four Solana hackathon prizes, including Renaissance winner at Grizzlython 2023
Those early days forged what Builderz still is today:
A team that ships fast, adapts fast, and never stops building.
From Nomads to a Solana-Only Agency
To keep momentum, the founders chose a lifestyle built around proximity and focus — co-living and co-working across different parts of the world.

These environments shaped BUILDERZ.
They built like founders, lived like a startup, and pushed each other to deliver faster and better every week.
Dubai Incorporation & Global Expansion
As the agency matured, BUILDERZ incorporated in the UAE and joined the Dubai Founders Villa program. Dubai gave BUILDERZ structure, credibility, and a base close to MENA founders and Web3 capital — while the European founders continued to live and work mostly across Southeast Asia (Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia).
During this period:
- The team expanded into engineering, design, indexing, backend, and product
- BUILDERZ became one of the region's top Solana development agencies
- Collaborations grew across DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and consumer on-chain apps
- The team became actively present at TOKEN2049, Hacker Houses, and major Solana residencies
- Projects shipped
- Satisfied clients
- Of value created
