Project Spotlight: Garrett Minks Founder and CTO of RAIRprotocol
Garrett Minks, the founder and CTO of RAIRprotocol, is on a mission to redefine Web3 infrastructure. RAIRprotocol is an open-source platform designed to empower developers and businesses to build and scale robust, enterprise-grade Web3 applications. By providing a fully open deployment layer, RAIRprotocol enables seamless collaboration between developers, integration partners, and the open-source community — fueling the creation of thousands more dApps. Today, we’re diving into Garrett’s vision for the future of Web3 and exploring how RAIRprotocol is shaping the landscape for decentralized applications.
What inspired the creation of your project, and what problem are you solving?
After building in Web3 for 4 years, we realized our proprietary SaaS based business model (along with most companies in the dApp layer) was holding back the whole space. We were inspired to go fully open source and create an open deployment layer based on feedback from both large enterprises (like Sony) as well as the wider dev community who told us a fully open source deployment layer was missing from the space.
