Hey Fam! Excited to announce I’ve stepped up as @V3V_ventures Venture Partner!
If my @BoredApeYC fam is connected to any decent projects currently raising funds or working with other VCs, don’t hesitate to DM me. We aim to make major investments this year + expand our network!
Last week, @v3v_ventures was in Paris for @proofoftalk — and it was one of the most energizing events we've been part of this year
Together with @DFG__Official, we co-hosted an investor dinner on the sidelines of the conference. The kind of dinner where you lose track of time because the conversations are actually good. No panels, no decks — just VCs and founders being direct about what they're building and where things are heading
A few things stood out: founder quality at PoT has genuinely jumped. And despite everything you read about market sentiment, early-stage appetite is real — the right builders are still getting backed
Big thank you to @MoonrockCapital, @1kxnetwork, @greenfield_cap, @AccVentures and everyone else who joined us at the table. You made it worth the trip
See you at the next one 🫡
A few insiders reached out to me regarding this tweet:
1) The foundation has allegedly changed the $LAB vesting schedule before to keep the pump going. The next unlock is now reportedly pushed to August.
2) They’re making deals with CEXs, handing over large amounts of $LAB tokens so they let the scam run on their exchanges.
3) The market maker behind the $LAB pump is reportedly the same one involved in the massive Movement Labs $MOVE pump and dump.
4) The funniest part: investors are apparently not allowed to derisk through OTC desks because the team is currently negotiating with an OTC desk to sell its own tokens.
lol
It’s almost funny how obvious this $LAB scam is, yet nobody seems to be doing anything about it.
The token is up another 2x this week and is now trading at an $8.6 BILLION FDV.
It’s pretty clear that shady market makers are painting the chart to lure in retail traders and then extract liquidity from them. The sad part is that something like this is only possible with the supportof CEXs, since you’d need fee-exempt accounts to pull it off at scale. Otherwise, the costs would be far too high.
For example, if you look at DEXs like PancakeSwap, there’s so little liquidity for a token supposedly worth nearly 11-digits that a $10,000 buy order would move the price by more than 70%.
That’s absurd.
One thing is certain: there will always be shady founders trying to get rich through scams. That’s just the unfortunate reality of human nature, and it’s a problem that exists in every industry.
What I find even more disappointing is that major industry players like @Gate, @kucoincom, and @bitget are willing to facilitate this kind of activity just to make a quick buck, even though it damages the very industry they operate in. It shows how short-term and purely profit-driven their thinking is without any moral.
Use DEXs or you’re part of the problem.
This year, @EthPrague was lean in the best way.
Municipal House was an amazing venue — historic, but practical — which meant fewer distractions and more builder-focused convos.
Kudos to the organizers for making it happen despite the challenges.
The @VitalikButerin × @jbaylina fireside on upgraded rollups was a highlight.
And as always, familiar faces made it worth showing up. See you soon at @proofoftalk in Paris!
There’s no point calling the market dead while the best rooms at @EthCC are still full of builders, funds, and real opportunities.
Great week for V3V Ventures in Cannes 🇫🇷 — our team had a real blast, and a few strong collabs are already in motion. More details soon!
Lighter sentiment feels absolutely nuked, which is exactly why $LIT around $1 looked like a great add. I aped in.
Feels like one of those trades that can define the year.

The market’s heating up, but the events are even hotter.
V3V team had an incredible time at @EBlockchainCon — top-tier organization, brilliant minds, insightful panels, and plenty of valuable new connections made.
The @token2049 Singapore experience has been outstanding.
Beyond insightful panels, the greatest value came from building connections with visionary builders, investors, and creators — sparking collaborations that drive us to elevate our mission even further.
We had the pleasure of joining an excellent event hosted by @GammaPrime_Fi, where our Senior Analyst @AntNomad contributed as a panel speaker.
The panel brought together outstanding speakers, valuable insights, and plenty of alpha for the community.
V3V is back in Singapore! 🇸🇬
