I had a blast moderating the tokenisation panel yesterday at @imaginationxyz with @BaronDavis @ben_rounds and Daria Shapovalova🔥

We talked about using #NFTs for good, disintermediation of traditional middleman, digital fashion … and so much more 😀

[Ben Rounds @ben_rounds]

Excited to launch our first independently-managed portfolio on @TrueFiDAO 🚀

Couldn't have asked for a better partner on this than the
@Caurisfinance team.

Last week I took the red pill.

Here are a few of my “week 1 observations” from my early steps into the land of crypto/web3. 🧵👇

[Li Jin @ljin18]

DAOs (decentralized autonomous organizations) represent the next step forward in the labor movement.

A thread 🧵

@Mark_Goldberg_ Totally agree, though i have some anecdotal counter-evidence.

I recently completed some market research for my role in product at @RoutableHQ on the desire in B2B payments to have a Figma-like multiplayer mode. As far as I can see, the market doesn't yet find value here.

[Ben Rounds @ben_rounds]

@Makehla @paulg Reiterating Paul's point, when the rejection is due to lack of confidence in the team executing, investors might say something like "business model", "timing", or something that deflects from the fact that, yeah, it's personal.

[Ben Rounds @ben_rounds]

@mariapesce @CatchKristen @Gemini Hey Kristen, was also going to suggest Gemini and I'm not an employee. Having been similarly avoidant to using Coinbase, I've been using Gemini (albeit not very actively) for a few years, and I'm very happy with the product.

Will flag the risk of a dude-ular UI though 😅

[Ben Rounds @ben_rounds]

@NotionHQ @scknows Any update on this feature request? Would love a feature to join multiple databases.
