What you likely need
You need events that put you in front of fintech-focused seed and Series A investors who can validate and amplify a formal raise for Rehive, ideally alongside founders who've navigated similar infrastructure-layer fundraises. You'd also benefit from rooms where African fintech operators and stablecoin builders are present, since your platform is uniquely positioned for that market and the right enterprise intro could be transformative. Rounding that out, tactical sessions on open-source positioning and press strategy would help you close the credibility gap between your actual traction and your public builder signal.
