WakeUp Labs 2023: A Year in Numbers

In this blog post, we'll delve into the numbers and highlights that define our growth and innovation in various industries. Numbers, after all, speak louder than words, and at WakeUp Labs, they tell a story of dedication, expansion, and thriving partnerships.

Expanding Horizons

The year 2023 witnessed WakeUp Labs going into diverse industries, including Gaming, Real Estate, Retail, DeFi, and Healthcare. Real-World Assets (RWAs) was as the center of action, with 8 projects developed. Real World Assets are trending. The integration of RWAs with DeFi opened new possibilities, allowing investors to engage in lending, borrowing, trading, staking, and farming rewards, all while bringing essential liquidity to markets.

Thriving Partnerships

Collaboration was key for WakeUp Labs in 2023, with over 20 clients spanning between research, consulting, and improvements.

WakeUp Labs left its mark across various verticals in 2023, ranging from Fintech, where we handled loans, payment gateways, infra, and data analytics, to Agro, focusing on traceability and tokenization with clients like Kilimo. Additionally, partnerships in Gaming included working with Mokens League on asset tokenization.

We’ve also got into Retail with Payment tech, Entertainment with the creation of a Streaming platform, Real Estate with RWAs, and, most recently, Healthcare, where we aimed to improve medication traceability.

Tech all in

Technologies such as Solidity, React, NodeJS, NextJS, Auth0 Lab, ReactNative, APIs de MercadoPago, Pinata, AWS Services, Javascript, Alchemy, #HardHat and Yahoo Finance APIs, among others, were at the forefront of all our developments.

And our developer team created over 83 repositories this year! 🔥💻

Seamless Transactions with MercadoPago

WakeUp Labs achieved significant milestones in 2023 by successfully integrating MercadoPago, Argentina's leading payment platform, into at least three projects. This integration enhanced user experiences and contributed to the expansion of the user base.

Embracing Open Source

Contributing to the ethos of open source, WakeUp Labs actively participated in two impactful projects – RGP-1 from Optimism (https://github.com/wakeuplabs/rfg1-optimism) and Daimo (https://github.com/daimo-eth/daimo). These contributions resonated with our vision, allowing us to contribute to the #Ethereum ecosystem.

Keeping the OPtimism UP🔴✨

In 2023 we've actively engaged with the Optimism ecosystem by:

- Integrated #OP into our platform
- Hosted workshops for devs with 100+ attendees.
- Secured a grant for developing REST APIs to explore historical events on the #blockchain.

Going into Sports Industry

A major highlight of the year was our partnership with Win Investments to transform the landscape of football. This RWA project involved dedicated efforts over six months, resulting in the implementation of player tokenization smart contracts.
