Truepill has truly become Stripe for digital healthcare: nationwide availability, at home test kits, telehealth software and pharmacy fulfillment (cash and insurance) all through one simple API and tech platform
Allows startups and healthcare providers to go from idea to full rollout in weeks not months.
Who wins? Patients. Telehealth can be 50X lower cost with better care that meets the patient where they live.
This space has been massively accelerated by COVID.
I don’t think people realize how we are only scratching the surface of what is happening in digital health. We are so proud to sork with @sidviswanathan@UAfridi and the Truepill team.
Fundraising is merely a goalpost. The real goal is to create a better world for healthcare.
Correction: Tweeted too fast — $142M round valuing the company at $1.6B

SF Victim Advocate: “As you walk free, know that five years, afforded you this moment. If this case happened anywhere else in CA or the Bay Area you likely would be midterm on a prison sentence.”
After that Victim Advocate Feinberg was fired by Boudin.

Nonfungible tokens bring scarcity to the digital world— the "bad version" of this is new status symbols. The good version of this I'm excited about is creating new games
That's why we funded @manifoldxyz to let people create your own game dynamics on your own smart contracts
Manifold lets creators and artists get creative sovereignty— use your own contract, not someone else's
I might be sharecropping here on YouTube/Twitter but the promise of NFTs is to let creators build their own platforms for ownership and distribution
What did @ediep wish he knew when he was 20 starting out in tech today? He would drop everything and learn about web3— in 2010 if you didn't learn about mobile, you would pay a big penalty.
