Crypto Valley Afterwork - "Crypto Valley Pioneers - Behind the Scenes"

​No blueprint. No playbook. Just a handful of pioneers who recognized the opportunity early—and acted. This is exactly what Crypto Valley Pioneers is about.

Crypto Valley Pioneers is a digital storytelling project that documents the early history of Crypto Valley through carefully researched interviews and short films.

Created by Manuel Stagars in collaboration with the City of Zug, the project captures first-hand accounts from the individuals who helped shape the ecosystem—offering rare insights into how Crypto Valley emerged and evolved.
