On August 21, 2025, I had the privilege of sharing a conversation with Addigator during our first Chones Party!
Addigator is cofounder and ecosystem weaver at Chones and you can follow her on X as @addigator71
She shared how she transitioned into crypto from exercise science, what led her to do community work, how blockchain is improving outdated systems and some of her experiences with Pretty Lights.
Here are some highlights!
