I put everything I had into building Myku. Never made a dollar from it, reinvested every penny, and I’ve never sold a single $MYKU.
The truth: the stress was overwhelming, and the crypto crowd only cared about the token, not the product. That mismatch crushed me.

Launching through the Believe app was an experiment in “internet capital markets.” The lesson I learned: the crypto community is mostly wired for meme coins + fast flips, while real products take time and focus. That mismatch made it unsustainable.
If you’ve got the Myku app then drop a Ku below! Let’s see ur Ku’s!

A few Myku updates!
We have me and 2 other devs working around the clock on feature work to get the app in a great place to start onboarding users at scale. The features we will release in the next few days are:
1. Universal links - when a user shares a photo via iMessage it will open that post In the app instead of directing to our website
2. App clip - this is major and will be our primary growth and onboarding driver. This will let people who don’t even have the app downloaded yet to create a Ku and then download the app!
3. CryptoKus filter - turn your selfie into a cryptopunk! we’re moving beyond only haikus and building the infrastructure to be a lofi Snapchat. That has always been the vision.
4. Utility - huge things in the next week or 2 there.
Dynasties aren’t built on fair weather fans. Things take time but we’re grinding building something real.
Grinding. Shipping.

The goal is to push out some really big updates this week to the App Store. We’ve been working around the clock on some of these changes. Excited to get people onto the new version. 👀

A new build is live on the App Store! This has push notification’s and deeplinks. This is the first step to really building a solid friend graph and retention in the app. Shipping bigger updates later this week!
$myku utility update!
The team added the hotwallet logic for withdrawing tokens and will be adding the deposit & create wallet and sign endpoints today for tipping. This is all backend work, so doing this the right way takes time, but it’s happening!
Updated roadmap is live! We have a ton of exciting stuff in the works :)
