HANDL has opened its Founders Circle, a private group for people who want to be more involved in how the product develops.
The group is aimed at long-term $HANDL holders, builders and power users. Joining requires users to lock 3,000,000 $HANDL for 12 months, according to the official token page.
Members receive access to a private Telegram group with the founding team, quarterly strategy calls and direct input into product and marketing discussions.
HANDL lets people receive money through usernames they already use on X, Telegram, Instagram, WhatsApp and Google. The person paying does not need the recipient’s bank details or wallet address.
The recipient chooses where the money should arrive, whether that is a bank account, e-wallet or crypto wallet.
Canton is one of HANDL’s supported networks. Users can create a Canton wallet inside HANDL or connect an existing one. The blockchain work stays behind the screen while the payment begins with something familiar: a username.
The Founders Circle arrives while the team continues work on HANDL 2.0. The next version is being developed around simpler payment flows, a better user experience and faster onboarding for people who are new to crypto.
The Founders Circle gives the team a smaller group it can speak with regularly as the product evolves. Members receive closer access to the people building HANDL, while the team receives feedback from users making a long-term commitment.
HANDL’s latest Community Hangout was announced as a closer look at the Founders Circle and progress on HANDL 2.0. The 48-minute recording is available on X.
