Proposal: Brazil Local Node

Brazil Local Node - Monthly report (June / 2025)

Since the approval of the Local Node, our main focus has been to launch and put into motion the Scroll Brazil Acceleration Program, which is our localized version of Scroll Open, but shaped specifically for the Brazilian context and builder community. We created a notion page with all the informations about the program for participants.

We kicked things off by designing a curriculum that blends theory with practical execution: online classes, and hands-on deliverables that help teams go from idea to prototype. This stage is already well underway, we’ve completed several sessions covering ideation, product validation, MVP development and UX/design. Participants have formed squads, submitted assignments, and received tailored guidance from mentors who know the Web3 landscape inside out.

In the program we had 20 projects registered, with different focus, like onboarding to web3, infraestructure of payments with stablecoins, connection with devs, tokenization of music industry and others.

During the Scroll Brazil Acceleration Program we had 6 classes, divided into:

Class 1: Idea Generation and Team Building

Class 2: Building in Public

Class 3: Building MVPs

Class 4: Design and UX

Class 5: Growth and Community

Class 6: Demo Day Preparation

Demo day:

Beyond the classes, we’ve used the Modular Crypto social channels and partner networks to keep the community aware of what’s happening, promote the program, share participant progress, and attract more eyes to Scroll’s growing local footprint. This visibility is crucial in Brazil, where trusted communities drive a lot of engagement.

About the winners of Scroll Brazil Acceleration Program:

1 - Scrollpay:
A stablecoin payment solution in Scroll network, designed for e-commerce.
With a focus on a simple, Web2-like UX, it allows any store to easily accept USDT and USDC, connecting traditional commerce to the Web3 universe.

2 - ForgeCollege:
An educational platform that accelerates the development of Web3 developers using AI.
The difference? Students receive scholarships to study, and the content is in-depth, overcoming the common barriers to entry and superficiality of current courses.

3 - Black Mindz Flow Cash:
Focused 100% on the hip-hop market, the project proposes the tokenization of musical flow.
The idea is for artists in the genre to own their own intellectual property and directly monetize their productions.

The Scroll Bazil Acceleration Program was an intense and a great journey, with some incredible projects presented during Demo Day. We had three standout winners, with mature proposals and high potential to make an impact within the Scroll ecosystem. However, despite the success of the initiative, it’s still unclear how these projects will continue their journey with support from the Local Node team. We’ve noticed the lack of a more structured bridge to ensure ongoing support, visibility, and connection with the next steps of Scroll’s global roadmap. We believe that supporting and nurturing these talents is essential to strengthen local project growth and continued building on the Scroll network.

Positive Community Sentiment:
100% satisfaction score, 4 answers from 20 participants of the Scroll Brasil Acceleration Program.

Open Economy:

During the last week of June we actively promoted the Vibe Code Camp to the Brazilian community through our channels and local partner networks. The initiative caught the attention of builders and developers already engaged with the Scroll ecosystem, which resulted in 7 sign-ups from interested participants.

We are planning two actions for promote the open economy in Brazil ecosystem:

1 - Register all the participants of the Scroll Brazil Acceleration Program.
2 - Create some spaces in Modular Crypto X to talk about the benefits of Open Economy and why the brazilian projects should subscribe.

Social media:

As leader of the Brazil Local Node, Modular crypto is actively promoting the Scroll ecosystem in their social media, whether talking about the Scroll Brazil acceleration program, Scroll update topics and participating in Scroll PT X spaces like guest or co-host, we participated in two X spaces during the june month.

Monthly Report — Brazil Local Node (July / 2025)

Ach
Open Economy Registrations 37
Public-Facing Initiatives (online or offline) 7 initiatives: 2 X Space + Demoday + 2 IRL events + 2 mentorships sessions
High-Quality Participants 37
Positive Community Sentiment 100%
Timely Reporting Beni has attended all the gov calls and attendend the local node specific call. We have participated in one X Spaces reporting our updates, and are active communicating with the foundation members
Governance Participation All the governance calls attended and engaged with all the local node discussions

Over the past month, the Brazil Local Node has advanced its mission of expanding Scroll’s presence in Brazil by combining technical education, community engagement, and governance participation. Our efforts have focused on bridging the gap between the global Scroll ecosystem and the unique opportunities in the Brazilian Web3 landscape, from hosting educational content and ecosystem research to actively contributing to governance discussions. This report outlines the key actions, milestones, and insights from our recent activities, showcasing how local activation is driving tangible impact for Scroll’s growth and adoption.

The report also encompasses the actions carried out up to the present date in August.

In the second month of Scroll Local Node’s operations in Brazil, we consolidated and significantly expanded our operations, focusing on three strategic pillars: builder acceleration, social media engagement, and strengthening Scroll’s institutional presence in the region. Through coordinated actions and an active presence on multiple fronts, both online and in-person, we sought not only to activate the existing community but also to build bridges to new audiences, projects, and leaders in the Brazilian ecosystem.

Our main driver of impact continued to be the Scroll Brasil Acceleration Program, an acceleration program based on the Open Campus, but fully adapted to the Brazilian reality, designed to transform embryonic ideas into functional prototypes with potential for real adoption. This second stage of the program culminated with Demo Day, marking the end of the training phase and the beginning of a new agenda focused on mentoring sessions for projects across three main areas: Product Development; Marketing; and Growth.

Structural deliverables and milestones for the month of July

During the month of July, we delivered and/or continued with:

Completion of the Scroll Brasil Acceleration Program, including all 6 planned classes;

Demo Day with 10 finalist projects and 3 award winners;

Scroll Brasil Acceleration Program mentoring sessions;

Two in-person events: Salvador and Florianópolis, with excellent local participation and engagement;

Participation in two Scroll PT X Spaces;

Continued content production on Modular Crypto’s social media about Scroll, acceleration, and participation opportunities;

Activation of Open Economy registrations via Vibe Code Camp;

Support via calls and assistance with Open Campus registrations.

Programa de Aceleração

Demo Day was a milestone for Local Node Brasil. After weeks of content and practical lessons, dozens of projects reached the public presentation stage.

Watch Demo Day: https://youtu.be/M-Lax-6_wfQ?si=uKfalXF5lifSX50M

Three were chosen as highlights, representing not only technical quality but also real potential for application on the Scroll network:

ScrollPay

Stablecoin (USDT/USDC) payment solution for e-commerce, with a user experience close to Web2.

ForgeCollege

Educational platform for Web3 developers focusing on artificial intelligence, scholarships, and in-depth content.

Black Mindz Flow Cash

Initiative aimed at monetizing productions in the hip-hop market through tokenization of intellectual property.

The program showcased the depth and diversity of local talent, with proposals that directly align with Scroll’s strategic pillars: usability, culture, local identity, and innovation.

In the final stage of the Scroll Brazil Acceleration Program, we focused our efforts on tailored mentorship sessions for the participating projects, aiming to prepare them for the next steps in their journeys within the Web3 ecosystem.

Two strategic sessions were held, each focusing on a key pillar: product formatting, to ensure clarity and feasibility of the solution; and marketing, to build a strong narrative and connect with relevant audiences. The growth session didn’t take place on the scheduled date due to an issue with the mentor agenda (but we’re already working on rescheduling it).

These mentorships represented a key moment of refinement and maturity for the projects, bridging the program’s practical experience with real-world market challenges.

Derick - Product formatting

Mari - Marketing

IRL Events

Open Economy: Mobilization and engagement

The Scroll Brazil Local Node contributed 37 applications to the Open Economy.

We’re in constant contact with projects from the Brazilian ecosystem, offering essential support at various stages of development. This includes helping with product validation, ensuring that solutions are aligned with market needs; pitch preparation, guiding teams to clearly and effectively communicate their value; and smart contract deployment on the Scroll network, making it easier for projects to launch.

Our goal is to strengthen these Brazilian initiatives so they can be selected to participate in the Open Campus, fostering innovation and growth within the local community by building a strong and collaborative ecosystem.

We’re also leveraging our networks and communities to highlight the value of participating in the Open Economy, showing why Brazilian builders should engage directly with the open opportunities provided by the Scroll DAO.

During the last week of July, we held calls with over five projects, helping them with their applications for the Open Campus.

Social media

During the month of July, we carried out intensive content production and distribution:

  • 20+ tweets about acceleration, Scroll, the Open Economy, and IRL events;

  • Participation in two X Spaces with ScrollPT, co-hosted by Modular Crypto.

X spaces

Governance

As the leader of the Local Node Brazil, Modular Crypto participated in all governance calls of the Scroll DAO, including the dedicated meetings for Local Nodes. We maintained active communication with members of the Scroll Foundation and reported our updates in real time, both through calls and X Spaces. This integration has strengthened our role as a bridge between the global ecosystem and regional contexts.

Challenges

Despite the success of the acceleration phase and in-person activations, we identified a key bottleneck: the lack of a structured post-program track. Many of the winning and finalist projects feel the need for continued support in areas such as validation, fundraising, and integration with the formal arms of the Scroll DAO.

We recommend the creation of:

  • A small grants program for projects within the Scroll ecosystem;

  • Ongoing mentorship linked to grants programs (such as Questbook and RetroPGF);

  • Visibility opportunities for projects through Scroll’s official channels.

Monthly Report — Brazil Local Node (August / 2025)

In the third month of the Scroll Local Node’s journey in Brazil, our work entered a stage of consolidation and amplification. Building on the strong foundation laid in previous months, we focused on combining large-scale community activation with consistent technical, educational content, positioning Scroll not only as an infrastructure layer but as a living ecosystem that empowers local builders, founders and contributors.

Throughout this cycle, we prioritized four interconnected fronts:

Community Activation: bringing together hundreds of participants in major IRL events across Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, showcasing how Scroll connects global technology with local builders. During these gatherings, we also highlighted the winners of the Scroll Brasil Acceleration Program and presented EtherFi as a key project in the ecosystem, reinforcing the visibility of both local talent and global innovation building on Scroll.

Content and education: publishing in-depth articles, newsletters, and workshops that contextualized Scroll’s technical roadmap, zk-rollup architecture and ecosystem opportunities for the Brazilian audience.

Builder engagement: creating dedicated builder sessions and technical workshops, giving visibility to projects already building on Scroll such as ChatterPay, Project Mocha and EtherFi, while also onboarding new talents to the ecosystem.

Governance and ecosystem presence: translating, contextualizing and actively discussing DAO proposals with our community. Reinforcing Brazil’s participation in Scroll’s governance, strengthening Modular Crypto’s role as a bridge between global decision-making and local voices.

Timely Reporting Beni has attended all the gov calls and attendend the local node specific call. We have participated in one X Spaces reporting our updates, and are active communicating with the foundation members
Governance Participation All the governance calls attended and engaged with all the local node discussions

This combination of actions amplified Scroll’s visibility in Brazil, activated new audiences, reinforced the pipeline of founders and projects connected to the ecosystem. More than executing a series of activities, the third month was about turning Scroll into a tangible presence for the Brazilian community, from the academic sphere to technical builders, from governance discussions to on-the-ground events.

August/September:

August was a turning point for the Scroll Brazil Local Node. Throughout the month, we combined strategic offline engagement, educational content, and community activations to expand Scroll’s presence and connect global infrastructure with local builders.

Our activities included a major IRL event in São Paulo, hosted at one of the city’s largest innovation hubs, designed to break out of the traditional crypto bubble and reach a broader audience of entrepreneurs, students, and developers. We also delivered in-depth articles to contextualize Scroll’s technology, organized builder and technical sessions to empower local talent, and kept a strong rhythm of social media activations and newsletter publications, ensuring Scroll remained visible to both Web3 natives and newcomers.

Together, these efforts reinforced Scroll’s role not only as a leading zk-rollup solution, but also as a global ecosystem rooted in local impact, positioning Brazil as one of the key regions for long-term growth and innovation.

IRL event, in São Paulo:

On September 6th, Modular Crypto hosted a major Ethereum community event in Sao Paulo, gathering over 130 attendees from more than 260 registrations.
Scroll was one of the main focus with a talk highlighting its global Local Nodes, top projects building on the network, such as ChatterPay, and Ether.fi. We talked about the role of the Open Economy in supporting founders.

The São Paulo event marked a strategic milestone for the Brazil Local Node. Hosted in one of the city’s largest innovation hubs, the choice of venue was intentional: to break out of the traditional crypto bubble and reach a broader, more diverse audience. While Rio de Janeiro consolidated Scroll’s role within the Ethereum-native community, São Paulo expanded the conversation by bringing together not only Web3 enthusiasts, but also entrepreneurs, students, developers, and professionals from other areas of innovation who had never been exposed to the ecosystem before.

This positioning allowed us to present Scroll not just as another blockchain solution, but as a foundational infrastructure capable of bridging global technology with local impact. We introduced the network’s vision, its ongoing initiatives in Brazil, and the structured support offered through the Local Node. At the same time, we showcased EtherFi, one of the most prominent projects building on Scroll, alongside the winners of the Scroll Brazil Acceleration Program, who demonstrated how local builders are turning ideas into solutions with real adoption potential.

By expanding the scope of participants, the São Paulo event created a fertile environment for cross-pollination between Web3 builders and professionals from the broader innovation ecosystem. This approach is key to strengthening Scroll’s presence in Brazil, generating awareness among new audiences, and ensuring that the ecosystem continues to grow with fresh energy, new perspectives, and long-term sustainability.

Three Brazilian projects showed their work:

Scroll pay with his founder Debinvest.

Black Mindz Flow Cash with its founder Double Green.

Forge college with its founder Arthur Moura.

The projects showcased their work on Scroll, highlighting local innovation, talent, and the reasons why they chose Scroll as the foundation to build upon. This session reinforced Scroll’s role in connecting global infrastructure with local builders, strengthening Brazil’s contribution to the Web3 space.

Positive Community Sentiment 100%

The strong turnout and high level of engagement confirmed São Paulo’s importance as a hub for expanding the Ethereum and Scroll ecosystems in Brazil and Latin America.

Demonstrating how the city can catalyze new opportunities, collaborations, and long-term growth.

Open Economy:

Open Economy Registrations 20

The Scroll Brazil Local Node has actively strengthened its role in the ecosystem by contributing 20 applications to the Open Economy in August, consolidating Brazil’s position as a key and reliable source of innovation within the Scroll community. This milestone is not just a number, it reflects the steady growth of local builders who are eager to engage with cutting-edge technologies and position Brazil as a reference point for Web3 adoption and development.

We maintain close and continuous contact with local projects, offering personalized support that goes far beyond basic guidance. Our involvement spans multiple stages of the builders’ journey: from product validation, where we help teams align their ideas with real market needs, to pitch preparation, ensuring their narratives are compelling and resonate with global audiences.

Our overarching goal is to empower Brazilian initiatives so they can secure a place in the Open Campus program. By fostering innovation and collaboration, we are helping shape a sustainable and resilient ecosystem, capable of generating long-term impact not only within Brazil but across the global Scroll community.

To maximize these efforts, we are also activating our networks and community channels to showcase the strategic value of participating in the Open Economy. We emphasize the opportunities this initiative unlocks for builders, ranging from visibility and funding to global collaboration, and why it is essential for Brazilian teams to take part in shaping the Scroll DAO’s future.

During this period, we provided direct support to several projects throughout their application process to the Open Campus. Importantly, this momentum did not stop after the first wave of submissions. It continued throughout August, with our team working closely alongside builders to prepare new applications, guaranteeing a steady and qualified pipeline of Brazilian talent feeding into the program. This ongoing engagement not only increases the visibility of Brazilian teams on the global stage but also ensures that their participation is strategic, impactful, and aligned with the broader mission of Scroll.

In addition to the builders workshop, in August 20, we also held a Technical Session hosted on YouTube with Patrick Carneiro, which provided a more hands-on perspective for developers. The session explored key aspects of Scroll’s technology, offering insights into how builders can start experimenting with the network and leverage its zk-rollup architecture to create scalable and secure applications.

Spaces:

One of the most powerful ways to unite a community is through open, accessible, and meaningful conversations. In August, the Brazil Local Node leaned into this by actively hosting and participating in multiple Twitter Spaces, transforming them into dynamic stages where Scroll’s presence in Brazil could be amplified.

Far beyond simple broadcasts, these sessions became strategic meeting points—spaces where builders, enthusiasts, and newcomers alike could connect directly with Scroll, ask questions, share perspectives, and gain a deeper understanding of the network’s vision and impact. They also proved to be one of the most powerful ways we found to connect the Brazilian community with the Scroll Local Node, creating a sense of belonging and direct engagement.

By fostering these exchanges, the Local Node cemented its role as a communication bridge, ensuring that the voices of the Brazilian community resonate globally while bringing Scroll’s global innovation closer to local realities.

Tweets of august:

We amplified Scroll’s presence in Brazil with a consistent wave of content across our social channels. Each post was designed not only to educate and engage, but also to position Scroll as a leading force for innovation within the Brazilian Web3 ecosystem.

From governance insights and ecosystem updates to event highlights and builder showcases, these tweets reached thousands of people, strengthening awareness and attracting new participants to Scroll’s journey.

This content strategy reflects our mission as a Local Node: to ensure that Scroll is top of mind for developers, founders, and communities in Brazil, while building bridges with the global ecosystem.

Conclusion

The third month of the Scroll Local Node in Brazil marked a decisive step in transforming momentum into long-term presence. What began as an effort to introduce Scroll to the Brazilian ecosystem has now evolved into a tangible movement, one that connects local builders, global infrastructure, and communities across different layers of innovation.

By combining large-scale IRL activations, technical and educational content, builder engagement, and governance participation, we not only expanded Scroll’s visibility but also deepened its roots in Brazil. August showed us that Scroll is no longer just a network being introduced; it is a living ecosystem embraced by students, developers, founders, entrepreneurs, and community leaders who see real opportunities in building with it.

The path ahead is clear: to keep consolidating Brazil as a key hub for Scroll’s global journey, bridging the values of security, scalability, and decentralization with the creative energy and entrepreneurial spirit of Latin America. Each event, article, workshop, and social activation is a building block toward this vision.

The Local Node will continue to serve as the connector, making sure that Brazilian voices are heard in governance, that local builders are empowered with resources and visibility, and that Scroll’s global innovation is translated into real impact on the ground. With stronger foundations, expanding networks, and an increasingly engaged community, the coming months promise not only growth but lasting transformation.

The event brought together developers, designers, and tech enthusiasts from different regions of Brazil to learn, prototype, and deploy real projects, reinforcing Scroll’s builder-first vision and its commitment to accessible education in Web3.

The feedback was positive, with participants praising the simplicity of Scroll’s tools, the collaborative environment, and the strong sense of community surrounding the ecosystem.

The campaign invited both writers and video creators to produce authentic, community-driven content about their experiences with Scroll and key ecosystem projects such as EtherFi Cash, USX Capital, Honeypop, and ChatterPay.

The initiative sparked curiosity and excitement in the community. It positioned Scroll not only as a builder-friendly ecosystem but also as a creator-friendly movement, rewarding originality and real participation.

The campaign announcement, co-led by Modular Crypto and Scroll PT, reached strong organic traction, amplified by influencers, creators, and community members who resonated with the idea of transforming creativity into impact.

This campaign marked a turning point for Scroll brand in Brazil’s, amplifying the ecosystem’s voice beyond developers and into the cultural layer of Web3. By activating creators, storytellers, and local voices, the initiative has significantly strengthened Scroll’s presence and perception in Brazil, a region where the brand faced challenges in previous cycles.

Over the past weeks, we’ve seen a clear shift: more people discovering, engaging, and creating around Scroll, drawn by an authentic sense of community and creative opportunity. The campaign not only expanded visibility but also helped rebuild and elevate Scroll’s branding in the region, positioning it as a vibrant, open, and human-centered ecosystem.


Conclusion

October represented a maturing phase for Brazil Local Node, a month defined by connection, activation, and narrative building. Through educational initiatives, community events, and strategic partnerships, the ecosystem continued to expand its footprint across Brazil, bridging developers, creators, and new audiences.

The Regional Vibe Code Camp, in partnership with Inteli Blockchain Club, showcased Scroll’s builder-first vision in action, fostering collaboration and real project deployment. Meanwhile, the content hackathon opened a new front for engagement, empowering cultural creators to express the ecosystem’s values in their own voice.

These activations, combined with consistent storytelling and visibility efforts, resulted in over 9,000 organic impressions, stronger community sentiment, and a measurable shift in Scroll’s local brand perception.

As the first cycle concludes, the Brazil Local Node stands as a living proof of ecosystem building in motion: connecting global narratives with local energy, and transforming Web3 in Latin America through collaboration, creativity, and purpose.

With IRL presence at EthLatam, participation in Devconnect, multiple X contents, and a strong cultural push from the content hackathon campaign, November consolidated Scroll Brazil as a vibrant and growing hub for developers, creators, and Web3 communities across the region.

And the sentiment shift was unmistakable:

More people are discovering, understanding, and telling Scroll’s story in their own voice.

The campaign focused on:

  • Reaching dev communities, universities, and local builder

This launch is helping shape a new wave of builders in Brazil, signaling that Scroll is actively supporting those who want to learn, create, and bring impactful projects to life on the network.

More teams are now discovering the opportunity, understanding the roadmap, and taking their first steps to build inside the Scroll ecosystem.

Between Devconnect, EthLatam, ongoing community activations, and the widespread traction of the Content Hackathon, the month solidified Scroll’s presence across the region and shaped a narrative centered on creativity, education, and belonging.
