excited to welcome soham parekh (ex synesthesia, lindy, antimetal) to @runwayco

we've never seen stronger performance on our engineering interviews so we decided to offer him the roles of staff engineer, principal engineer, and principal staff engineer, and he's accepted all 3.

If you’re really good at passing technical interviews, you can probably get multiple jobs, hire a junior team to work under you and arb the total salary minus your headcount costs.

Hilarious outcome of remote work.

Turns out we all need to just start eval maxing now

Between ages 22-25, I was stuck on a brokered CD trading desk in the NJ suburbs. The closest I got to actual Wall Street was the annual Christmas parties at South Street Seaport.

On nights and weekends, I worked as an EMT at MetLife Stadium during Giants and Jets games. Saturday mornings, I worked construction with my family’s business—just trying to pay off student debt faster. I was living with my parents. My girlfriend (now wife) was in Manhattan.

I wanted out. I wanted equities. I wanted NYC.

My father had built a house for a well-known analyst you see often on CNBC. I reached out for advice. He told me breaking into Wall Street from my position would be tough. Instead, I should go into industry or consulting, then break in laterally—find a team where that industry experience would be valuable. Blast a hole and crawl through.

So I did.

At 25, I took a job in market research (CPG-focused). From there, I engineered a transfer to the team that worked with investment banks. Eventually, one of those banks poached me.

By 27, I was on a top-ranked equity research team. By 34, I left to build my own consulting, M&A advisory, and venture business.

The lesson? If the front door is locked, find a side entrance. If there’s no door, blast a hole. Just get through. It can be done.

(8/10) The court should not endorse this theory because it has no limiting principle. It would give the SEC boundless authority over commerce - from collectibles, such as sports memorabilia, trading cards, expensive watches, to commodities like diamonds.

[Amanda Tuminelli @amandatums]

So this is huge. Today, @LEJILEX and the Crypto Freedom Alliance of Texas (CFAT) sued the SEC seeking a declaration that “secondary-market sales of digital assets like the ones that LEJILEX intends to facilitate through the https://t.co/KcwzlxpjdX are not sales of securities.”

The most important thing the FDIC and the US Government can do right now is *make the receivership as short as possible*

There are thousands of US startups that banked at SVB, often as their *sole bank*. $250K per account is not going to last long.

From the FDIC website:

I can't wait to see how they try to blame this on crypto.

[Tyberius @TyGreenberg]

By identifying and investing in companies that offer solutions such as frictionless payments and smart contracts that expedite transactions and reduce legal costs, investors can capitalize on the trend of digitization in the financial industry.

[Tyberius @TyGreenberg]

The fintech industry is rapidly evolving and companies that focus on reducing regulatory and legal spending for large organizations have the potential to increase shareholder value.

My “heard from” this week is from other VC fundraisers (20 year+ vets)

- Never harder to raise capital
- Hundreds of funds sitting at 50-75% of target, incl. some great funds
- If downturn history serves, ~25% of funds will never raise another fund - LPs wary of “walking dead”
