Background
Multidisciplinary

Global network
Founders, investors, operators — relationships built on shipping, not talking.
Beyond the screen
DJ & artist — Yanis Nich
Music, creative work, and a belief that art is a form of expression as real as code. YD supports artists and creators — both inside the DAO and outside of it.
The ranch
A long-term vision: a place where nature, business, and people come together. Off-screen, off-grid — but connected.
