I just got promoted to VP of Business Development at RedStone.
It’s been 4 incredible years and the journey was anything but smooth.
Year 1 - I had no idea what I was doing. I was the first non-technical hire. No clients, no revenue, no playbook. I spent most of my time writing tweets and trying to figure out how to explain what RedStone was to people who had never heard of us. Half the time I wasn't sure I could explain it to myself.
Year 2 - I got humbled. Did hundreds of calls. Most of them ended in "No". I had to learn from the rejections. What are we missing? What did the prospect need that we couldn't see? Those questions changed how we built the product and we finally closed our first clients.
Year 3 - I learned that doing the work and building a team to do the work are completely different skills. Learnt to structure 3 business lines and helped take RedStone from scrappy startup to one of the most renowned oracle providers in the industry.
Year 4 - I realized the playbook needed to change again as we are going upmarket. Learning enterprise sales from scratch. Asking harder questions about how we build a scalable business. My team is 9 people now. I'm sitting on more calls than ever ('be a student of what you sell'), giving direct feedback, holding everyone (including myself) to a higher standard.
I’m proud of what we’ve achieved so far:
- 200+ B2B clients across 110 blockchains
- $8 billion of user funds secured, in the most important DeFi protocols
- Became primary oracle for BlackRock BUIDL, Apollo ACRED, and HamiltonLane SCOPE via Securitize
- And many other things I can't fit here
A lot has changed over these 4 years, but one thing remained the same: our clients genuinely enjoy working with us and client satisfaction has been high throughout. That’s the thing I'm most proud of.
Thank you @MarcinRedStone and @kuba_redstone for the trust! And to my Team: none of these achievements would have been possible without you. This win is yours as much as it's mine.
Year 5 starts in 2 months, and RedStone is becoming the complete data and risk infrastructure layer for DeFi and institutions.
We’ll be discussing our institutional-grade products at EthCC next week. If you want to know more, come find me.
A bit of 'how it started/how it is going' below:
FX markets close every night. Blockchains don’t.
That gap breaks real-world yield onchain.
We built custom 24/7 FX and NAV oracles for @brix_money, keeping sovereign yield continuously live onchain 🧵
