Last Mile DeFi 03: Education as a catalyzer of mass adoption with Camila Ramos

gm! On episode 03 of Last Mile DeFi, we speak with Camila Ramos where we explore Cami's journey towards becoming a developer, the importance of equitable access to education, and why Cami is driven by leveraging crypto rails to deliver financial freedom.

Born in Colombia, and brought up in California, Cami’s journey towards becoming a developer began at an early age when she took an hour-long coding course in high school. At the same time, she also saw the inequity in accessing computer science education for black and latino students at her high school. This then kicked off her journey towards unlocking more educational opportunities for underrepresented communities through her writing and content she produces.

Cami’s north star is led by bringing crypto to those who need it most, particularly those in the global south. She sees an opportunity for crypto to provide enhanced financial infrastructure and drive more prosperity for Latin Americans, rather than seemingly futile applications that often times get a lot of attention in mainstream crypto that don’t provide practical use-cases for whose who have most to benefit most from crypto - points she discusses in her piece “The Deadend of Eurocentric Crypto”. This year Cami is focused on not only researching where crypto’s key intervention points lie, but also working towards building and implementing real solutions that drastically enhance people’s lives.

We also explored what real world adoption Cami has seen to date in Latin America and why she believes particular use-cases have taken off in the region and what we can do to nurture more adoption through creating better-designed user flows. One of the most interesting points of conversation is where we explore the questions around whether it is the job of incumbent crypto players to expand into the LatAm region or whether we could see more home-grown projects emerge locally.

Is It Dope? (Mission)

We feel that many teams are building for the users they want instead of the users that they need. Sure we all want users with lots of social media followers to share our content or products but followers don't always equal influence. It's more valuable to target customers with cultural equity, when cultural pollinators get excited about your brand they can get everyone else excited too! This show believes that we can help with that process by reviewing your products and asking one simple question "Is It Dope"? for the lamen, that is just a simple way of asking Is the product or feature you're shipping easy to use? does it add value? Is the messaging digestible? Would we recommend it to the homies? Is it dope to the people who traffic in dopeness? This show will help you answer that question!
