So proud of Bea & the whole @PowerDada team. They launched the first collection ever of tokenized art made by artists on Ethereum back in 2017 and precede all of the current cryptoart platforms. I got to witness them develop this strategy while at @mattervc.

[Sam Sifton @SamSifton]

This is a tremendously good program for those who run things and want to run them better.

Proud of the movement @mattervc entrepreneur @JenniferBrandel has helped build.

What happens when @nytimes pays attention to the growing counter-movement to VC hypergrowth culture?

We shall see!

[Jennifer Brandel @JenniferBrandel]

I am one of that statistic, and couldn't be more proud to have been part of @mattervc. If the media industry had more @coreyfords in it, we'd be in solid shape. What he built is nothing short of remarkable. Hats off. "It's time to flare." - @coreyford https://t.co/xWNbbii5Va
