Proud to be a former @coinbase team member. It’s pretty awesome to see many of the people I met there go on to start their own companies and I feel lucky to have been able back a few of them!
common anti-pattern I see:
- someone: introduces a "good idea"
- founder: oh that's possible on my protocol
- idea never actually gets built on that protocol
most ideas are cheap, execution is not
assume that if you're not going to build it yourself, no one will

Random Product Idea:
- Build a reboot of hq trivia with a slight twist
- For each question the "answer" is the option that is voted on the most, not the objectively true answer.
- For good questions this will be entertaining
- Use crypto rails to transparently tally votes.

tip: if you're a crypto recruiting agency don't reach out to vc's for startup open roles. lazy at best, incompetent at worst.

1/ I am excited to announce our lead investment in the Series A of @neynar. The recent growth of social protocols like @farcaster and @undefined has reminded us of the importance a thriving developer ecosystem for social networks. We believe Neynar will be critical to rewriting this story.

I met with a designer a few weeks ago looking for her next role in crypto and was reminded of the importance of simplifying your product and messaging. This is a lesson that we could learn from as builders.

Building a protocol requires bootstrapping a two sided marketplace with devs and apps on the supply side and users on the demand side.
Competition over devs has gotten intense. More protocols are building their own products first. Im excited about this as a protocol gtm.

So excited to welcome @diogomonica onto the team!
I got into venture to partner with the best founders our space has to offer. It’s going to be a lot of fun doing that while learning from and working alongside Diogo
