Our take

Interest in a decentralized, user-owned internet is growing rapidly, but building apps in Web 3.0 can be difficult for many developers. Hiro solves this problem by providing developers with the tools they need to build apps on Web 3.0.

Hiro was founded by one of the most established names in Bitcoin, and has benefited considerably from this advantage. The company enables developers to build on the Stacks network, and as Bitcoin and Web 3.0 continue to rise in prevalence, Hiro stands to gain.

Hiro's founder has also launched Trust Machines, a sister company to Hiro, which could help consolidate Hiro's position in the world of Web 3.0. The company is well-positioned to see positive growth in the coming years, but its executive team will need to work hard to ensure the company remains agile.
