Early crypto teams often ask us: how do we get marketing off the ground? Here’s how I think about agencies vs in-house. Start by hiring in-house. You need a marketing lead (not necessarily a CMO — think jack of all trades) who can set strategy, connect internal stakeholders, and tie everything back to business goals. ...

Founder-led marketing = narrating your journey
A lot of early-stage founders want to do founder-led marketing but get stuck at “I don’t know what to cast/tweet.” Some ideas to get you started: – Insights from internal convos – Questions you’re wrestling with (product, GTM, users) – Ask the community for input – Revisit old essays: repost, update, build on the

Too much reliance on AI in investing could create a dangerous feedback loop. Models will reinforce consensus thinking amongst investors. Yet exceptional returns require betting against the crowd and having information that algos can't capture.

Yess! So good, right? Wild how often the clearest articulation is already sitting in someone’s internal notes.
Testimonial - thanks @ninasuthers for the inspo! I asked my investors for their investment memo or a summary Super helpful to see what resonated, how they explain the opportunity, their modeling on potential outcomes, and all the risks they outlined https://warpcast.com/ninasu...

Every time I start spiraling on CT, I remind myself what’s actually good for me: contrast therapy and Warpcast. Reset the nervous system!

Founders talk about the "what" and "how", often skip the "why" — then wonder why no one gets what they’re building.
Founders: “We’re not sure how to talk about our project.” Also founders: never asked their investors for the memo that convinced them to invest. That doc = your positioning cheat code. Market, problem, and why you're the chosen one. Polish it. Ship it. Bonus: this is why you pick thoughtful investors, not just hype
