The Ethereum Foundation: Working hard or hardly working? A blockfight at EthCC between @jerome ("working hard" team) and @ameensol ("hardly working" team)🥊 Spoiler: Jerome won by a tiny margin... but maybe the audience was biased? We'll never know ;)

If you're looking for a cool activity with kids in NYC, I cannot recommend Momath enough. The kids just didn't want to leave 🤗

It’s that time of year when my blood boils. Crowdfunding platforms are just bad, by design. StartEngine is living proof! Year after year, it raises money on its own platform at absurd valuations, targeting unsuspecting retail investors. Just look at that: * Revenues 2023: $23M * Net income: - $16M (yes there is a "minus") * Round valuation: .........1.4B 🤬 Because why not!! Every year they markup their own valuation (!!) to keep raising at higher and higher valuations. No professional investor in their right mind would invest at those valuations... but it's not a problem for them! They are a crowdfunding platform, they can raise from retail investors 🙄 Meanwhile, the CEO takes home more than $3M compensation (screenshot 1) per year in the form of $750K salary/ year + $2.5M in stock options... stock options that are then sold to retail investors once vested (screenshot 2)!! There you go! A nice "regulated" business 🤮 Founders beware: NEVER USE CROWDFUNDING PLATFORMS

gm FC builders 👋 in 2 months it will be 7 years we've been grinding with @thibauld to get equity infrastructure onchain with full regulatory compliance! Here is a massive new step. @fairmint became the first validator dedicated to equity markets on Canton Network, alongside Goldman, JPM, Circle, DTCC 🧵

I need to reintroduce myself. I’m about to publicly launch a new company called @MezzanineLabs but most people only know a tiny, tiny part of my career... and usually it’s that I started ConstitutionDAO or that I was on the team that acquired Grindr I studied econ and cs in college. As a sophomore, I started NomadX, an apartment rental company for digital nomads. We expanded across several countries and aggregated tens of thousands of units. Our goal was to create a global network of "host cities" where nomads could live for 1–3 months at a time. (Dare I say, an early network state?) One of my first customers in Lisbon introduced me to bitcoin in 2017. That fall, bitcoin hit $20k for the first time and the term “DeFi” hadn’t been coined yet. I tried arbitraging Litecoin and Bitcoin on a Zimbabwean exchange called Golix, where prices had 50%+ premiums. That’s where I learned about market depth and how hard it is to make money in illiquid markets.

Caught up with SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce at BTC 2025 the morning with @fairmint we filed our letter to the SEC Crypto Task Force. With @thibauld, today we just opened that letter to everyone. 🧵👇

You're not bullish enough about onchain equity 🔥 With the stablecoin bill passed, the next frontier is making equity fully tradable onchain, outside the slow, antiquated tradfi infrastructure. The rails are ready. Let equity run 🚀
