@SilviaMogas We were in need on KOL partnerships, that's what I clearly said. You didn't show up to the chat to clarify the details, didn't ask for any materials and told me about call reschedule 5 mins before the call. We're buying stuff from you, not selling, so there's no way youre not int

@SilviaMogas is likely to be a scammer, expect more info soon.

We're investigating

@VanneckCapital Good option for early stage projects

[Vanneck Capital @VanneckPartner]

We either solve it or connect you with someone who can.

That is the rule for any problem a founder brings us. Behind it: investors, exchanges, market makers, auditors, legal counsel, KOL agencies and other portfolio founders.

For services you pay for directly, we negotiate preferred rates.

Good article on SPVs

[Vanneck Capital @VanneckPartner]

Learn Day Today.

An SPV is one deal in one vehicle.

At Vanneck, each SPV holds a single project, so an investor knows exactly what the money backs. The minimum LP ticket is $50K, there is no management fee, and carry is 20% above an 8% hurdle.

Structures: Cayman, Delaware or Singapore. The average SPV is $750K, and the largest go up to $2M.

btc back in the 70s and timeline is suddenly full of risk management experts

where the fuck were you at 100k

builders keep building

[Trevor @TrevorCesur]

Founders ask me what valuation to raise at.

Better question: what does this round buy you?

Pick the milestone first, then the runway to reach it, then the amount. The valuation is the last number, not the first.

[Trevor @TrevorCesur]

@VanneckCapital the most model ever imo

[Trevor @TrevorCesur]

Good piece of advice here

[Vanneck Capital @VanneckPartner]

You're building it the wrong way

Common startup advice: take the money first, buy the help later.

We do it the other way round. Audit costs, listing support, market making at preferred rates, security for the founding team and hiring support come with the check.

Giving, not selling.

Good dropdown on vesting btw

[Vanneck Capital @VanneckPartner]

Founder vesting in our standard terms, in one example.

4 years, with a 1-year cliff.

Leave before month 12: nothing has vested.
Reach month 12: 25% vests at once.
After that the rest vests gradually until month 48.

If control of the company changes, vesting accelerates in full.

A hardware wallet protects your keys. It does not protect the laptop you sign from.

That laptop is where malware, a fake extension or a hijacked session can do the damage.

We are giving a selected group in our network 12 months of Sophos endpoint protection:

- EDR and MDR monitoring
- Compensation for losses of up to $1M, under Sophos's terms
- No payment and no card

Protection reduces risk. It does not make anyone unhackable.

Application link in the first reply.

Day 3 of #Devcon in Mumbai. 20+ meetings, 7 coffees, ~0 hours of sleep.

Mumbai runs on chai, and the fees are more predictable than most L1s.

Founders in the city: DM me. First chai is on me.

@VanneckCapital Thank you for sharing, worth mentioning that's only for pre-rev companies
