Batuhan Kurtcu

DeFi Marketing Lead

Building engines to move your narratives.

Let's build together

Intro

I started in crypto writing about tokens I barely understood. Now I build marketing systems for complex products and the teams behind them.

At Solstice, I run content and partner marketing for an ecosystem that peaked at $520M TVL. Before that, I built FIAT® into a 55,000-person community in 8 weeks and supported $14M+ in capital formation.

'Batu is a heavy hitter. He took a complex product and gave it a story people could actually follow, then carried that story across content and partner work. I could trust him to find the angle and keep the work moving without much direction.'
