VVV and Capital
Measured by revenue, Venice has become the largest company at the intersection of AI and cryptoeconomics.
Today, we announced Venice’s first round of outside capital, a $65m Series A led by @dragonfly_xyz, valuing Venice’s equity at $1 billion.
Since we are an atypical company, this thread describes how this equity raise relates to the most valuable asset we have on our balance sheet, our capital token base:0xacfe6019ed1a7dc6f7b508c02d1b04ec88cc21bf
Aerodrome is coming to @Arc
Arc is a stablecoin-native ecosystem developed by @Circle, built to bring real-world economic activity onchain.
Aerodrome will be there, standing up critical FX infrastructure.
I started my career in politics because I believed, in the words of the late great Senator Paul Wellstone, that "politics is about the improvement of people's lives."
I chose to build in DeFi because I believed it enabled us to build better systems -- shared systems that give all participants a greater stake in the new economy.
And did so as a fully doxxed American — at a moment in this country when I knew that no matter how hard I tried to do it right, I risked ending up in jail or being sued by my own government just for building technology.
That is why today, I joined 60+ CEOs and founders in signing a letter to Senate leaders expressing that developer protections are essential to any workable crypto market structure bill.
On behalf of everyone at @DromosLabs, @VelodromeFi, and @AerodromeFi, we urge the Senate to pass the Clarity Act with robust developer protections.
