I just ran a short 4 week angel round (⏰) with funds now received 🚀. It was intentionally small ($115k received; $140k subscribed) but I still wanted to share stats and learnings to other /founders in case it's helpful: 📊 Angel Round Stats: - 96 warm introductions - 54 non-responders - 21 rejections (8 immediate; 13 post-call) - 8 ghosted us - 8 couldn't hit our timeline - 5 hard commits - 4 angels funded ✅ The Good: - 4 weeks meant we can get back to building - 'Warm introductions' are the way - Super smart Web3 angels (e.g. CowSwap & Brickken) - 50% of backers were from traditional finance - A transparent process with weekly investor emails creating FOMO ❎ To improve: - Under estimated how macro uncertainty can impact commitments - Over focused on traditional finance; they see risks everywhere - Confusion around investor docs slowed things down I'd love feedback from other builders as we'll be pivoting our Stablecoin yield and non-custodial risk platform to Web3 VC in Q3'24 🔥

Anyone else feeling properly excited right now? It was a long bear market. Crazy speculation isn't always great... but sometimes it's just fun being excited about new things

Hey, my favourite DAO people 📢 @thethriller and I met at ETHDenver to talk about how we could do more with this DAO channel. We have lots of FC native plans in mind... but we're starting by setting up a weekly DAO focused /aburra each week. We'll call this simply .... DAO Fridays 🚀

Hey /daos crew! We as moderators need your ideas to grow this channel 🙏 Progress 🚀 : --> A simple channel vision; a place to come to talk openly about /daos --> 1.6k followers, 100 members and weekly Thursday calls where everyone is welcome on stage Improvement areas 📊 : --> Average 1-2 casts per day --> Thursday calls are hyper engaging... but led by regulars (<10 attendees) Opportunity 🌄 : --> We could sit tight; wait for the bull market growth... but that's not fun! --> This channel hosts the best community thinkers in Web3… I know you have ideas for us! Our Ask ❓ : --> Pitch us on ideas for this community’s future. No idea is too big or small! --> Give us feedback; now we have more moderators we should 100% reply and engage more on daily casts --> Let us know if you’d like to take the lead on executing any ideas! There’s no gatekeeping here Incentives 💸 : --> Best ideas will earn a little bit of USDC, degen or preferred token Let’s hear it! Huge thanks all 🙏

I just saw @avichalp.eth cast this https://zklocus.dev/ Proving geolocation to an area without disclosing the exact coordinates sounds 🔥 I feel like we're still away from the economies of scale of web3 delivery / ride-hailing Anyone else thought about any potential use cases of this? Are the founders on here
