Introducing USVC - a single basket of high-growth venture capital, for everyone.
No accreditation required, SEC-registered, and a very low $500 minimum.
Includes OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Sierra, Crusoe, Legora, and Vercel. As USVC adds more companies, investors will own a piece of that too.
Liquidity typically comes when companies exit, but weโre aiming to let investors redeem up to 5% of the fund every quarter. This isnโt guaranteed, but if we can make it work, you wonโt be locked up like in a traditional venture fund.
It runs on AngelList, which already supports $125 billion of investor capital.
And Iโve joined USVC as the Chairman of its Investment Committee.
โ
Go back to the 1500s, you set sail for the new world to find tons of gold - that was adventure capital.
Early-stage technology is the modern version. It says we are going to create something new, and itโs risky. Itโs daring.
But ordinary people canโt invest until itโs old, until itโs no longer interesting, until everybody has access to it. By the time a stock IPOs, most of the alpha is gone. The adventure is gone. Public market investors are literally last in line.
This problem has become farcical in the last decade. Startups are reaching trillion dollar valuations in the private markets while ordinary investors have their noses up to the glass, wondering when theyโll be let in.
Investing in private markets isnโt easy. You need feet on the ground. You need judgment built over years. Most people donโt have the patience to wait ten or twenty years for an investment to come to fruition.
But there is no more productive, harder-working way to deploy a dollar than in true venture capital.
USVC enables you to invest in venture capital in a broad, accessible, professionally-managed way, through a single basket of innovation, focused on high-growth startups, at all stages.
It is how you bet on the future of tech: the smartest young people in the world, working insane hours, leveraged to the max, with code, hardware, capital, media, and community. Your dollar doesnโt work harder anywhere.
There is an old line - in the future, either you are telling a computer what to do, or a computer is telling you what to do. You donโt want to be on the wrong side of that transaction.
USVC lets you buy the future, but you buy it now. Then you wait, and if you are right, you get paid.

Why do I think we'll see a relief rally instead of new ATHs?
$BTC is in a bear market. As such, it is likely to continue the trend until a bottom has formed. Remember: "The trend tends to continue".
Furthermore, if February ($60k) was the bottom (what everyone wants) that would mean BTC had only been in a bear market for 4 total months (Oct->Feb). I'm all for a shorter bear market, but the typical bear market is 12 months. Could we have a slightly shorter bear market? Sure (or a slightly longer one, too). But having one be just 1/3 the length regular bear market, in terms of time? I doubt it. Bottom is a process that takes time. Read more: https://t.co/TvK72sAyYJ
Furthermore, if Feb's $60k was the bottom, that would only be a 53% drop from top to bottom. Again, this would be very much below the typical bear cycle, in terms of drop percentage, even when accounting for diminshing returns/losses. Read more: https://t.co/JThLFDcxzO
Also, macro economic factors look bad. If the war in Iran ends, that's a start, but imo it's not enough to make up for all the other bad economic factors. Read more: https://t.co/2Ukrj10S0i
Lastly, the oil shortages caused by the slow-moving shipments is a delayed effect that has yet to be fully felt. The economy hasn't fully felt that damage yet, as the shortages haven't fully been felt yet. See video for more: https://t.co/TGsSDLFbBE
You can disagree with me if you want, but I've referenced the reasons and logic for everything I've said in the links above.
Everyone knows about $BTC's 4-year cycle, but Bitcoin also moves in cycles vs gold, and it moves slightly different than vs USD.
Reclaim the current resistance, and we're going to be laughing at Peter Schiff for a good while again.

The average person complains 15 to 30 times per day. Each one is a rep training your brain to stay in threat detection mode.
Hereโs the mechanism. When you complain, your hypothalamus activates the HPA axis, flooding your system with cortisol. Cortisol in short bursts is fine. Cortisol as a chronic baseline state is neurotoxic.
Stanford research found that repeated complaining physically shrinks the hippocampus, the region responsible for memory consolidation and spatial reasoning. Even listening to someone complain for 30 minutes is enough to damage neurons there. The hippocampus has one of the highest concentrations of cortisol receptors in the entire brain, which means it takes the hit first and hardest.
But the deeper problem is Hebbian. Neurons that fire together wire together. Every complaint shortens the synaptic gap between your negativity-associated neurons, making that circuit the path of least resistance. Your amygdala becomes hyperactive. Your prefrontal cortex, the part responsible for rational decision making and impulse control, goes quiet. You are literally building hardware for anxiety while dismantling hardware for problem solving.
The loop looks like this: complaint โ cortisol spike โ amygdala activation โ prefrontal suppression โ reduced ability to reframe โ more complaints.
The intervention point is at the front of that loop. Gratitude journaling, deliberate reframing, and novel skill acquisition all stimulate new dendritic growth in the hippocampus and restore prefrontal activity. Physical exercise, specifically zone 2 cardio, lowers baseline cortisol more reliably than any cognitive technique alone.
Your brain wires around what you repeat. Choose the reps carefully.

BNB Chain and Four Meme Launch a $45M Reload Airdrop with Ecosystem Partners
Recent market conditions have created turbulence across the broader crypto landscape, yet the BNB community continues to build, create and stay engaged through it all. That spirit of resilience is what keeps our ecosystem strong.
To recognize that dedication, BNB Chain, together with @four_meme_, supported by @pancakeswap, @BinanceWallet, and @TrustWallet, will launch a $45M Reload Airdrop across memecoins on BNB Chain.
This initiative will distribute the $45M in BNB to 160k+ users/addresses who have traded memecoins recently over the past week, with the final amount of airdropped BNB being distributed randomly. The first batch of airdrops will be distributed starting this week, all airdrops to the 160K+ addresses will be completed by early November 2025.
This initiative represents a collective effort across the BNB ecosystem to show appreciation for our users and builders, especially the memecoin community. The memecoin community is one of the most active and creative communities in the ecosystem, who have been affected the most by recent events especially during the past week.
Thank you to everyone who continues to build, create, and participate across BNB Chain. Your energy is what keeps this ecosystem moving forward. We remain committed to supporting all builders, users, and all areas of innovation that make this ecosystem thrive.
For more details, please stay tuned to the official channels.
I confirm that the assets I assumed responsibility for the @project0 are safe and sound.
I am so surprised and delighted by this fact!
Defi on @solana incredible โฅ๏ธ
Project 0 is solvent & protected users during this crazy market drawdown with ~$100M in outstanding credit!
Diving in: the @project0 risk & liquidity engine is built on @marginfi, which is one of the most resilient, stress-tested DeFi protocols on Solana -- handling hundreds of billions of lends, borrows, flashloans, and liquidations in production, through all market conditions, over the last 3 years
Here's a deeper look at how we've protected users. Over this drawdown โ
โข 100% of solvency protected
โข over 2,000 liquidations -- we have partial liquidations to ensure we only liquidate the minimum that brings users back to full health. This protects users!
โข only $1.8M liquidated! We have built in protections all users borrowing against similar market beta assets with our new pricing system (e.g. borrowing SOL against LST, or stablecoin to stablecoin)
โข 0 liquidations on LST/SOL Loops! (there were some big price wicks with LSTs. Users stayed protected on P0)
โข $>150K in revenue to liquidators! If you're a Solana liquidator and you're not liquidating on @project0, get in touch with me and I'll personally onboard you
โข We've added $42K to our @project0 insurance vaults!
โข >$6B in flashloan activity during the drawdown. We are the most used flashloan program on Solana.
This is while collateral assets like BONK experienced a 40% drawdown! Our risk parameters still protected users & properly customized risk per-asset.
There's a lot more coming on customizing risk per-asset in our P0 credit pool, but this is a fantastic start.
hey rich people, you shouldn't be spending more than $50,000/yr on top tier health care. Even an all-out at-home clinic like mine is ~$300k.ย
The most powerful health and longevity therapies available to you are no alcohol, finishing eating 4 hrs before bed, screens off 60 min before sleep, 7+ hours of sleep, morning light, avoiding junk food, eating from the Don't Die food guide and exercising every day.
These alone will move the needle more than any IV drip, stem cell, exosome, or any other fancy protocol out there.
If you're going to spend money, spend it wisely:
+ Measure your biomarkers
+ Create a hypothesis on effect
+ Do the therapy
+ Measure again to determine the efficacy
The fastest way to become successful is to associate with people more successful than you. This results in some of the fastest learning and behavior change you can experience.
The problem is...they wont want anything to do with you.
So you have to find ONE thing you're more successful than them at, and give that thing freely. Not at cost. Not tit for tat. Freely. Without expectation. It's an unspoken code of people who are higher up - they're almost all givers. The easiest way to see someone who is "out of place" is to spot the taker. Spot the person always angling.
Anyways once you do actually provide value (help them do something good they couldn't do before or help them avoid something bad they used to have to deal with, or get the same outcome they're used to faster or cheaper)...they'll let you hang around.
Then you learn as much as you possibly can and try and be the best in that group at EVERYTHING. And when that happens they'll see you as a leader. You won't even have to say it. The power dynamics will just shift.
