Catching up with friends and most Mid-summer reflections are around:

What did you actually ship:
- this week?
- last month?
- last quarter?
- last 6 months?

As a web3 entrepreneur, there are only two ways out of the fake it ‘til you make it phase:

1. Help save money (aspirin)
2. Help make money (vitamin)

Web3 has started in the vitamin phase promising upside, not solving pain.

That’s changing. The next wave of products I’m seeing

Public stocks, tokenized funds, private equity / credit, money market funds, commodities, deposits, structured products, real estate, reinsurance, carbon credits and more... are already available or coming to @Aptos

When I first started off in the ETH ecosystem almost 10 years ago, it was obvious that protocols were the most powerful rails we had for moving money and assets.

The problem was……we were way too early.

Stablecoins didn’t exist. Custodians (qualified) didn’t exist. Real-world

📊 LATEST: Aptos RWA TVL surged 55% to $537.5M, ranking 3rd after Ethereum and ZKsync Era. https://t.co/onNmKuSEOi

Aptos will be number one in this category. And in my opinion is the only category that really matters

You should all shill and get Spark’s (@buildonspark) token. It’s going to moon big time. It’s called Bitcoin. Joke aside, no token means no gas fees that have to be paid with a “foreign” asset to a stablecoin. Sounds like a small thing, but it’s a huge deal.

It was October 2023 when @moshaikhs sat down with @scottmelker on The Wolf of All Streets podcast.
Even back then, Mo was already talking about Shardines, 1 million transactions per second, bringing institutional money on-chain, and onboarding 1 billion people into Web3.

.@Aptos quietly had one of the strongest second halves of 2024.

🌐 700% TVL growth
🌐 Major RWA integrations
🌐 Stablecoins going cross-chain

And a surge in real-world adoption across payments and enterprise.

Here’s the thread breakdown 🧵 https://t.co/b3u2Rvbuaz

Growing this baby took years to get to an unmatched 2024 ecosystem, I expect to see growth like this to continue.
