Technology alone
doesn’t create
revolutions—belief does
People do. The biggest revolutions—from the internet to crypto—weren’t just innovations; they were movements powered by belief.
Technology alone doesn’t change the world
At D-Day, we don’t just
connect AI startups with Web3. We turn them into
unstoppable forces.
AI startups need more than great tech—they need believers.
Web3 needs more than speculation—it needs real utility.
We bridge the gap, transforming cutting-edge AI projects into thriving, community-powered ecosystems that scale beyond what traditional markets ever could.
This isn’t just a launchpad. It’s
the new frontier of AI adoption

The Why: AI Is Advancing. Web3 Makes It Unstoppable
AI is the most transformative technology of our time, but its adoption follows a familiar pattern:
01
Breakthroughs happen in isolation. Startups innovate, but scaling real-world adoption is a slow grind.
Noise drowns out real progress. Even the most powerful AI struggles to break through without a movement behind it.
Web3 changes the game. Unlike traditional industries, it can turn vision into virality and ideas into global ecosystems overnight.
02
But Web3 has a challenge too:
AI memecoins are booming—but most have no real AI.
Speculation alone doesn’t build industries. Real technology does.
03
That’s where D-Day comes in. We unlock
a new growth model for AI startups—one powered by community-driven momentum, network effects, and Web3-native adoption.
AI startups gain traction, visibility, and believers—instantly.
Web3 finally gets AI projects worth rallying behind.
Together, they create something bigger than both—unstoppable ecosystems.
This isn’t just the next evolution of
AI adoption. It’s the future of how
technology takes over the world
