Hey there, fellow crypto enthusiasts and AI trailblazers—Latin America's crypto scene is heating up faster than a bull run in altcoin season. If you're a founder in the region tinkering with blockchain protocols or AI innovations, buckle up: Odisea Labs just dropped a game-changer with the launch of the next Acelera LATAM/ACC cohort.

Picture this: a powerhouse acceleration program tailored specifically for pre-seed crypto and AI builders, bridging the gap straight to the throbbing heart of the Ethereum ecosystem. Teaming up with FS Build and backed by the Ethereum Foundation's Founder Success Team, this isn't your run-of-the-mill startup bootcamp. It's a direct pipeline to the big leagues, complete with strategic nods from heavy hitters like Mantle, AUSD, Alchemy, Protocol Labs, Founders Forge, and Dune.

So, what's the deal with Acelera? It's a lean, mean 6-week sprint designed to supercharge your project without diluting your equity—because who wants to hand over slices of their pie before they've even baked it? Expect hands-on technical mentorship to refine your protocol designs, market research dives to validate your big ideas, and pitch polishing to nail that next funding round. Oh, and you'll rub shoulders with over 50 industry leaders who can catapult your trajectory from local hero to global scaler.

Odisea Labs is scouting for just 8-10 elite teams from across Latin America. Think: innovative protocols, AI-driven DeFi tools, or anything pushing the frontiers of web3 and machine learning. The cherry on top? Selected squads get to showcase at Demo Day during Devconnect Argentina, pitching to the worldwide Ethereum crew and a swarm of top-tier investors. That's not just exposure—it's rocket fuel.

If this sounds like your jam, the clock's ticking. Applications close on September 25th, so head over to the application page and lock in your spot. Whether you're in Buenos Aires, Bogotá, or São Paulo, Acelera is here to prove that Latin America's ready to own the next wave of crypto and AI disruption.
