this fucking clown spent more time on Coinbase’s accounting than his own
4) See, while they recorded ~$150m/$800m of their revenue as "services"...
...check out their opex.
See that "Transaction expense" of $167m? I'm pretty sure that includes items offsetting much of the services revenue; it's passthrough to customers from e.g. ETH staking.

I think this strategy will be decent next 2 years:
Find tokens where …
- market cap is <$100m
- team has demonstrated they can ship
- team still actively building (maybe not the same thing!)
- team owns its own token (incentives)
- strong social media presence
- treasury gives…

I think 2023 will be a bloodbath for crypto startups:
1. Most ‘21/22 seed startups run out of money
2. Some get acquired
3. A few raise new rounds (>80% downrounds)
4. Tech salaries come down
5. Tech job titles deflate
6. VCs invest in other sectors (AI etc)
