We’re tech and blockchain entrepreneurs with a rich history on the EOS.io blockchain. Prior to main net launch, we started building dapps, creating media, and hosting events to help EOS grow. Now, we’ve united to drive adoption.

We imagine EOS as a bridge to an empowered, transparent, global community. It’s our responsibility to support that bridge by building human networks and tools anyone can use. With this simple truth at our core, we’re bringing blockchain to the masses. We Are EOS San Francisco, Your Bridge To Adoption.

Team SF Blocks

We’ve been building around EOS because we believe it’s important for humanity. We’re here because we can’t imagine being anywhere else.

Ownership & Jurisdiction

EOS San Francisco is our brand name. San Francisco is our main hub of operations because the city remains on the bleeding edge of blockchain tech.

Though we live here, none of our assets or legal entities are registered in California. We structured an International Business Entity in the Cook Islands to give the most protection to the EOS token holders. Our main goals are to comply with local laws and regulations while securing the network from hackers or outside governments. We will pay applicable taxes within the United States. We’re self-funded and have no planned investments from outside actors.

Legal Structure:
SF Blocks LTD
Legal entity type: International Business Company
Jurisdiction: Rarotonga, Cook Islands
Established: November 2018

Our Promise

We promise to be in active contact with you. Accessibility and candid responses will be at the heart of our transparent movement. If we shift our corporate structure, network, tech, vision or financials, we’ll communicate our reasoning. We’re here to maintain the chain for you. We’ll honor that responsibility with transparency. We also vow to never buy votes. Our goal is to add massive value that earns your votes.

Tech & Our Node

Ali gained extensive knowledge of the EOS test & main nets while building Lumeos. He used this experience to test and configure our EOS San Francisco node which runs on AWS in Canada.

Bridge To Adoption: 3 Parts

Tech: Part 1
A Full-Service EOS Incubator and Blockchain Workspace
We Co-Founded IncubEOS at Starfish Mission in San Francisco.
Our space will foster the world’s leading EOS Dapps.
EOS needs startup magic.
We feel how fast tech moves in San Francisco. We’re going to plug EOS directly into some of the most creative devs in the world. We’ll foster these dapps with a creative space, tech experts, connections, and funding opportunities. We’ll bring more devs into EOS and more DApps onto the main chain.

Community: Part 2
We're key players in the EOS San Francisco Meetup hub. This will be hosted in the same location as our incubator. Our community aims to be one of the strongest EOS centers in the world. Brandon founded the largest Steemit Meetup in San Francisco. He transitioned those resources to support EOS. Alicia owns Starfish Mission, one of the hottest blockchain workspaces in the city. It’s a perfect storm of talent and location to act as a global base for EOS builders.

Education: Part 3
-The EOS Podcast hosted by Brandon. Last month our community listened for over 100,000 minutes. That’s consistent, quality, education. Community knowledge is power.
-The EOS Ignite Conference hosted by Jun. The 1st Global Webcast Conference for EOS had 60+ Speakers and drew +1,100 token-holders.
-Weekly study groups on Governance & Constitution / Tokenomics & DACs hosted by Jun.
-Distributed Saturday Developer Study group at Starfish Mission. Hosted by Jun and Alicia.

Our vision is to bring magic to San Francisco. We’re building a city with an EOS heartbeat.
It’s an honor to embark on this journey with you. Let’s grow together in abundance.
We have a chance to impact the course of humanity.

That’s why we’re here.

That’s why we founded EOS San Francisco.

Hey Brandon. What’s your NCAA national championship? That’s not something you see on a tech guy’s resume very often.
