Community · Education · Good vibes
A trusted community, a hacker house at every major crypto conference, and an education mission — with a token that adds value on top, not instead.
At a glance
Friends of Pedro is a trusted conference community that is becoming a physical network of hacker houses — funded by sponsors, sustained by real services, and powering an education mission.
A home base at every major conference: stay, work, connect. Barcelona pilot opens in days.
Houses funded by sponsor tiers; revenue from courses, events, a fractional-BD desk and a travel desk.
Partnership with a certified education platform; surplus funds training for kids without resources.
Built by helping people for free — hotels, visas, intros. That trust can’t be bought or forked.
$PEDRO launches after the model is proven: access, membership and alignment for what already works.
Replicate the playbook city by city until there’s a Friends of Pedro house at every major conference.

Business model
How the project sustains itself
| Stream | How it works | Status |
|---|---|---|
| House sponsorships | Tiered sponsor packages per house (title, rooms, meals, events) — priced to cover the real cost of each house | Live · Barcelona |
| Certified courses | Paid courses with official certificates via the education platform partnership | Partnership in progress |
| Fractional BD desk | Pedro as fractional BD on the circuit: fixed fee + success fee per closed client | Ready to launch |
| Memberships | Founding NFT collection for OGs; monthly subscription NFT for new members | At token launch |
| Travel desk & giftcards | Conference bookings for companies (flights, hotels, logistics) + global giftcards, powered by XHYPE — commission per booking | Partnership · XHYPE |
| Events & partnerships | Benefit festivals, charity dinners, project promotions — reviewed case by case | Recurring |
Where it goes
Each stream publishes its split: operations · foundation (education mission) · token burn. Transparent, on-chain, every time.
New · The travel desk
The community was literally built helping people with hotels, visas and logistics — for free. The travel desk turns that superpower into a proper agency for conference-going teams.
For companies
Flights, hotels and logistics for your whole team at any conference — one contact, done. Pay in fiat or crypto.
Giftcards
Global giftcards in 180 countries for team perks, speaker gifts and community rewards — crypto-friendly by default.
Powered by
Built on XHYPE, the crypto-spending superwallet for travel and giftcards — Friends of Pedro brings the community and the service layer.
Why it wins
Every conference team already burns hours on bookings. We’ve done it a hundred times, we know every city on the circuit, and members book through the desk with $PEDRO perks — another real utility, another revenue stream feeding the mission.
What we’re looking for
Sponsors · now
Fund the houses through tiered packages (€750–€8,000 in Barcelona). You get branded spaces, hosted sessions and curated access to the community. Surplus goes to the education mission.
Education partners
Platforms issuing official certificates — the foundation of the project. One partnership in negotiation; open to complementary ones.
Projects · BD desk
Use Pedro as fractional BD at conferences (fixed + success fee) — and let the travel desk book your whole team’s trip. Later, activation requires locking $PEDRO.
Not asking for
We are not raising on the token. $PEDRO launches after the pilot proves the model — utility first, speculation never.
The token
The community and the product come first. $PEDRO doesn’t create the value — it plugs into value that already exists: houses people stay in, courses people take, a desk that closes deals.
Launch only after Barcelona proves the model and the education partnership is live. The token joins a working machine.
Certified learning funds the mission: training for children in under-resourced countries, via the foundation.
NFT sales and token flows split transparently between burn, foundation and operations — published on-chain.
Compliance first — from day one
$PEDRO is a utility and community token. No investment promise, no return language, legal review in every jurisdiction before launch.
Token utilities
Each one tied to the core proposition
Houses
Stake $PEDRO to unlock stays at the hacker houses — plus member pricing on the travel desk.
Education
Certified courses paid in $PEDRO — revenue feeds the foundation and the mission.
Access
Stake a threshold for one-on-one consulting and BD strategy sessions.
Membership
OGs get the founding collection; new members join via monthly subscription NFT.
Business
Companies lock $PEDRO to activate the fractional-BD engagement.
Impact
Community NFT sales split between burn and foundation — visible on-chain.
Staking amounts, thresholds and pricing set at tokenomics stage with legal review — deliberately not committed here.
The flywheel
How value circulates
Community
Groups, houses and events grow the network city by city.
Activity
Members spend and stake $PEDRO on things they actually use.
Impact
Part of every flow funds education; part is burned.
Growth
Real impact attracts sponsors and new friends — the wheel spins again.
Also in the mix
Benefit festivals · charity dinners · project token donations for promotion (reviewed case by case) · Pedro’s growing KOL reach · the map of every Pedro on Earth.
Roadmap
Prove → build → scale
House live in days. Sponsors testing the format.
Certified platform deal closed, first courses live, foundation set up.
Tokenomics + legal review, founding collection, $PEDRO launch.
Houses worldwide, festivals, the Pedro map, full BD desk.
The honest sequencing
The token launches after the pilot proves the community model — not before. Utility first, speculation never. That order is the whole difference between this and a memecoin.
Sponsors, education partners, and early friends — the Barcelona house is days away and the door is open. Come say hola.
