0xShip Letters #81: 0xShip HQ Wrapped 2025, 30-Day Consistency Challenge, and More

Dec 22, 2025

Hey Shipper,

It’s been a long year — and as we close out December, this also marks the final 0xShip Letter of 2025. Before we rush into what’s next, it’s only right to pause, reflect, and take stock of how far we’ve come together.

This year wasn’t just about sharing opportunities. It was about showing up, building structure, and creating real impact for the community.

So here’s a quick 0xShip HQ Wrapped 2025 👇🏾

What we did this year:

• We officially rebranded from Glory Praise Tech Corner to 0xShip HQ, opening a new chapter focused on scale, structure, and community.

• We sent out 48 newsletters, curating $10M+ worth of jobs, grants, hackathons, trainings, and events.
👉 Drop a comment and tell us how many you received (with proof). The Shipper with the highest number wins a prize. 🎁

• We hosted 9 monthly Mentorship Circle calls on Google Meet and introduced an accountability pairing system to help members stay consistent and focused.

• We organized a Resume & LinkedIn Optimization Workshop on July 12, 2025, helping members better position themselves for global opportunities.

• We hosted our first Twitter/X Space on December 6, 2025, reflecting on our wins, lessons from 2025, and how we’re positioning for 2026.

• We secured two community partnerships — with W3Node and Borderless Tech Club UNN — focused on real access and tangible opportunities.

And honestly? This is just the beginning.

What’s Next 🚀

We’re kicking off the year 2026 with a 30-Day Consistency Challenge in January — designed to help members build skills, stay accountable, and create real progress.
