1/ The only reason to join a fund over going angel when you have capital is to build a network. And eventually, you'll be able to spin off on your own.
2/ Most analysts aren't exactly wealthy in terms of crypto, and they also get paid much less than TradFi counterparts despite multiples higher ROI and opportunities.
3/ Funds don't want to pay to retain talent because they've built a brand name in a nascent industry and believe they can bank off that. In TradFi, analyst churn is at a high rate because of an abundance of talent and deep knowledge of the industry's inner workings.
