What is the end game?
We were asked during the May community call: “How is @union_build different from other interoperability protocols?”
@0xkaiserkarel nailed it — Union isn’t just another bridge; it’s an entirely new category. Union combines the best of GMP with intent-based efficiency.
To keep it simple, I turned his answer into a slide you can share whenever your friends ask why you’re so bullish on Union.
Zkgm.

Looking pretty sweet. Zkgm
Union’s constellation keeps expanding—new chains, fresh alliances, bigger ambitions. As the keystone of the BTCfi ecosystem, we're now connected to more Bitcoin LST/LRT protocols than any other interoperability layer.
Which logos do you want to see on the map 6 months from now?

U Combinator pitch day was incredibly bullish. The caliber of teams is high. You're not ready for the next wave of Union ecosystem projects.
Here are some of my personal favorites, nfa dyor etc.

The inaugural fellowship had 12 builders join the Union core team for a hands-on 4-week program. This culminated in-person at Cosmoverse where the fellows worked with Union and ultimately presented PoCs of their projects.
