Today we're launching Reaper. Your company can be doing everything right, SSO, MFA, endpoint protection, security training, and still have your employees' names sitting on the dark web next to old passwords, phone numbers and home addresses. Reaper shows you that exposure before someone uses it.
Quite a month:
Arsenal win the Premier League for first time in 22 years.
Knicks win NBA Championship for first time in 53 years.
Elon becomes world’s first trillionaire.
Lewis Hamilton wins in a Ferrari.
What’s next, UFOs?
TODAY IS THE GREATEST DAY.
CHAMPIONS.
At 7yo the captains band for our little rec team in SF was an Arsenal sweatband.
Wenger, Henry, Bergkamp…then nothing for years.
Would read @arseblog in college before falling asleep and laugh at the Tuesday Club pod guys on my work commute.
Now I’m 39, still in SF and still try to watch every match from afar. Part of my honeymoon was to go to a match at the Emirates. My kids have their own kits.
Now Arsenal are champions again.
I am so happy.
Watching Verstappen & Engel weaving in and out of traffic around the Ring at night was the highlight of my weekend.
N24 arguably the most exciting race of the year across the board — hopefully F1 fans saw how incredible endurance racing is. Le Mans next month!
@DylanAbruscato There is an abandoned movie theater in Corte Madera between MV and Marin Mart that is dying to be turned into an Erewhon.
Would print money.
Earn more. Across m̶o̶r̶e̶ all sources.
Nook is expanding to more earning sources. More chains. Including @ethereum@base@monad and @Optimism. Connecting you to over $1B in TVL.
Coming soon.
The shift in the crypto fundraising landscape the past 6 months has been insane.
Crypto VCs used to have to constantly be networking/writing/podcasting/going on spaces/promoting your thesis/getting on 10 deal flow calls a week, to get into good deals...now it's literally enough to just have capital to write checks.
Deals are being pushed rather than dug out. Inbound if people know you have money is at an all-time high.
Most firms are either 1) Out of money 2) Moved to Series A and beyond or 3) Fundraising (with no success).
Deals that used to close in 2-3 weeks now close in 2-3 months.
Firms with questionable business models or copy pasta of the latest trend are getting zero primary or follow-on funding (Good news!).
There are now realistically <20 firms writing checks in pre-seed/seed.
VCs basically have the pick of any deal they want, with more time to do DD.
IMHO 25/26 are going to be historic vintages for those who stick around.
