1/ As a founder in crypto, you are building an early stage tech company VERY publicly

You are required to:

Manage your actual product
Manage the token as a product

A thread on the latter from my experience of managing $XPRT! 2/ Despite the numerous challenges, a token creates unique opportunities for any founder

It is ammo for hiring, marketing, brand building, community building, BD, customer acquisition/retention

Super pumped to announce the fundraise of @PersistenceOne ecosystem project @pStakeFinance, a liquid staking platform focused on multiple PoS assets starting with $ATOM, $XPRT & expanding to other assets such as $ETH, $SOL, $LUNA etc over time

A thread👇

Image I was not early enough to be a BTC/ETH miner but was early enough in the industry to bet on 'PoS Mining' or validation through @AuditOne_ (rewards from Audit are responsible for initial bootstrapping of all Persistence products during the depths of bear in 2019/20)

#CT has been all about NFTs past few days

Most folks focus on art/gaming/collectibles wrt to NFTs - IMO this HUGELY underestimating the impact of NFTs

NFTs in the context of 'Real-World Assets' (RWAs) address a TAM that is orders of magnitude larger

A tweetstorm 👇 What are RWAs? Mostly business documents representing ownership or claims to assets E.g. business invoices, land titles, bills of lading

Business invoices are especially interesting

Why? Because 80% of world trade takes place on credit terms - a $19.6 Trillion market..with a T!

WeWork is a a different case

BUT re the recent bashing of IPOs & founders..my belief is that when you’re trying to change the world - you need that charm, fearlessness, ignorance to attract capital, take the risk & have a small chance that it might work

profgalloway.com/yogababble Facebook and several other companies have had lacklustre IPOs..it doesn’t matter in the short run.

Power laws haven’t kicked in for MOST technology companies.

Beyond gaming, gambling and #DeFi as a way to drive #adoption, I have been interested in what makes enterprises & govts move to public Blockchains

Had a chat with a real insider that has implemented multiple Blockchain projects with some of the largest enterprises

A thread 1/ Think about the transition from private to public Blockchains in a similar way the transition happened from the Intranet to Internet

E-comm players @tikivn @thecarousell TMON @PomeloFashion + others doing 30B $ in GMV all part of Terra's alliance

Tune in: Funnilly, we spoke literally 1 hour after Terra's mainnet launch - got an almost real time view on what goes down on mainnet launch

0/ Quick takeaways from @naval's podcast with @KapilGuptaMD 1/ Management vs leadership - "If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and assign them tasks, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea."

Management is assigning tasks. Leadership is getting people to want to do it themselves.
