Excited to announce KRAKacquisition Corp. (KRAQU)—a SPAC formed in partnership between @NatCapCentral , @krakenfx, and @tribecap, where I serve as CEO. Throughout history, speculation has catalyzed lasting innovation: Dutch East India shares created equity markets. Grain futures

capital treadmills (perpetual dilution) vs. capital catapults (front-loaded, finite dilution) What appears to be disciplined, prudent investing (the gradual drip-feed) in marketplaces/software is actually a trap that can lead to worse outcomes than the seemingly riskier approach

Using AI/ML in your smart contracts means trusting a single source of truth and a single point of failure. How can we consume ML outputs that are verifiable and decentralized? 🚨 Introducing Spectral’s Mainnet. A Machine Intelligence Network, powered by #zkML, that ushers in

Our next chapter begins today! Check out the NEW https://t.co/aRR4zGVv1y and read this thread to the end to learn about Drop Rewards 👀 Since 2021 we’ve had the pleasure of launching NFT drops for some amazing projects like @bywassies, @AnataNFT & @webaverse among many others.

Very excited to be among the first investors and long-term oasis passholder in @wildxyz !

1/ Today, we announced that Wild has raised a $7M seed round. Our CEO @douglassNFT spent some time chatting with @camgthompson at @CoinDesk about this exciting milestone and what’s to come with Wild!

1/ 💥 Today’s a big day at Equals — we’re launching dashboards. 💥 Forget yet another BI tool. Build fully automated dashboards with the flexibility and familiarity of a spreadsheet. Support our launch on Product Hunt, and learn more below 👇 https://t.co/YG6CtpJaXV

Today we're sharing the model that @figma used to understand and forecast their self serve business. @sean__whit built it. He was one of Figma's first 40 employees. Figma still use it. Blog post, video, and template below 👇

Congrats to @heyequals on this huge milestone!

Surprisingly few VCs do: 1) take the lead in scheduling 2) run an efficient process 3) treat the founder with respect 4) invest fairly, or, pass transparently 5) send a thank you to who made the intro The best do this, but most do not.

web3 Uber is ridiculed as one of the worst ideas It’s actually one of the best, we’re just not ready for it yet Here are the key missing pieces needed to make it happen

Excited to share what had us so eager to back @__sishir and some early @SpectralFi metrics in advance of his talk at fellow General Catalyst portfolio company @circlepay conference this week! #ConvergeSF22 https://t.co/MjZkOir7cq

I'm excited to support @wildxyz as they come out of stealth. Talent is equally distributed but opportunity has not been...yet. Wild is changing that by harnessing the creativity of global artists to build a new immersive world for people to create, share, and sell their art.

8/ I'm excited to see the community develop around @SpectralFi as it evolves in its mission to help bring decentralized credit to web3.

7/ In success, this will unlock the best and brightest minds to submit machine learning models to help underwrite credit for the global pop. May the best models win.

6/ Unlike web2, where centralized credit bureaus exist, @SpectralFi is proposing a decentralized network where anyone (including existing credit bureaus) can submit a credit scoring model and act as a node on the network.

5/ And in turn, this score can be incorporated into every defi protocol, which can benefit individuals by allowing them to receive favorable rates for creditworthy on-chain transactions. Imagine a world where playing a web3 game can now positively affect your credit score.

4/ What @SpectralFi imagines is a world where everyone can build credit through on-chain actions. (check your score here: https://t.co/fulrvzcPzI)

3/ Now no one can afford to buy a house (unless you are rich). Overcollateralized loans are low risk, which mean lower yields to lenders, but it also means fewer borrowers. This is a massive rate limiter to global adoption of defi and crypto more broadly.
