A lot of people have been asking me what’s next. To be honest, it has been hard to get into anything interesting, because crypto is the most entertaining field to be in. But it was always my goal in life to build something, to produce something that could impact humanity in a better way. Two years ago, I invested heavily in building a fully automated manufacturing unit, run by my younger brother, that makes water bottles, packages them, and sells them. It’s a full-blown factory where you start with basic plastic, and bottles come out in different sizes. Watching all those bottles coming out, millions and millions of bottles and caps, it always hit me: why couldn’t we create some sort of base material that is biodegradable? In India, almost every corner you look at has some kind of trash lying around. It’s sad to see, but I believe change is possible. It might take a decade, but it’s all about seeing a better future rather than crying about the current situation. Hence, I’ve been looking into formulating a new compound that would create a base PHA resin, one that becomes fully compostable within a year of being dug into the soil. It’s a huge problem and a very hard task, but I believe that if enough energy, blood, sweat, and tears are put behind it, it’s possible. So that’s the direction I’m working in. Right now, it’s at an early stage where we are trying to formulate the compound that could create the resin. Finding the right compound and formulation might take me a few months at most. Since I have access to the factory with the full blow molding setup, I’ll be able to test the product as fast as possible. It’s all about creating the resin. Once the resin is created, this plastic can be used across different applications. Plastic is the most widely used material in the world, and given the uncertainty in crude oil markets, it looks very interesting to explore whether we can create a compound that is at least 50% cheaper to produce using local agricultural waste. We want to build a compound out of it that allows us to create plastics with a shelf life of more than one to two years. And maybe, if I succeed in formulating this compound, we might see a raise on MetaDAO to bring this dream of mine to reality. Till then, all prayers are needed, and much sweat, blood, and tears must be shed. p.s. I dont think i would be able to exit crypto fully literally spent a decade here.
