The killer feature of cryptoassets is the democratization of investing.

The open nature of crypto networks has removed barriers that restricted early-stage investing to institutional investors like hedge/venture funds and allowed anyone to participate. 🧵

Bitcoin, specifically the mining process gets a lot of flack for its energy usage. However, Bitcoin mining can help alleviate one of the greatest challenges facing renewable energy – the Duck Curve. 🧵 Image
The Duck Curve ELI5

Energy from renewables is inconsistent and peaks at inconvenient times. Solar peaks during the midday and wind in the middle of the night.

But, peak demand occurs in the morning and in the late afternoon which is opposite from renewable energy generation.
Renewables now provide an excessive amount of renewable energy from solar and wind during the middle of the day which screws up the economics of electricity generation because the net energy production (grid load) continues to increase without any outlet.

There are very few – if any technologies – where being directionally correct was more important than being precisely correct.

Crypto is unlocking entrepreneurs and investors from the burden of precision. 🧵

1/ In crypto, founders can generate immense wealth outside of the equity value of their company (i.e. Coinbase, ConsenSys, etc) while they are building and the speed at which they are “exiting” those companies through community governance (i.e. Comp, Synthetix, Balancer).
2/ Much of the value created by the Internet was captured by startups like Facebook and Google. Equity owners of these companies profited massively, and rightfully so. However, there were thousands of entrepreneurs that also saw the value of the web, built companies, and failed.
