Founder & CEO @coinfund_io. Engineer. Investor. Researcher of crypto networks. Champion of the builders of the new internet. (Not investment advice.)
It’s becoming more and more probable that decentralized AI networks are going to cream Big Tech companies on AI production. Seems contrarian, I know. But 18 months ago all the AI experts were saying there is nothing to be done about the communication bandwidth bottleneck. That…
Ship Product, Win Business is the only thing @zksync cares about. Going to be onboarding nation states, banks, and corporates. Why? Because we understand what they need and are building products to fit the market. Prividium is just the base layer for what we want to…
Teams hyping up and talking about product with PMF > teams hyping up and talking about community, vibes, and culture. Ship product, win business
I'd add @BainCapCrypto, @a16z, and @coinfund_io to the list. They've been outstanding partners for us.
I was talking to a founder today who asked my opinion on the best "crypto VC" firms to raise from and imo there is no one better than Multicoin right now They are unwavering in their belief of the companies they invest in and I think that is dope
How soon do you think merchants will be accepting stablecoins for payment, at scale?

On Monday, July 28th, ZKsync Era will upgrade to connect with ZKsync Gateway. This change will only affect external-node operators, who will have to update their nodes to v28.6.0. All bridging functionality and L1 <-> L2 communication will remain fully operational. However,…
Moral of the story: don’t be average.
The average person who trades after studying charts does far worse in the long run, after taxes, than the average person who invests after studying businesses.
If a junior engineer could charge his boss every time he made a stupid collegiate error like @lovable_dev, then junior engineers would also be doing $100M ARR.
Since we can compute the daily conversion rate, if we assume the acceleration of World growth is linear, we are at 100m users in early May 2026. This of course assumes no accelerants or risks playing out.
More than 100K users a day have been converted by @worldcoin for the last three days. 🔥

The hat stays on when talking business and ZK. Thank you @coinfund_io for having me! Love to do this again sometime
Zero knowledge proofs have a multitude of use cases for verification, and @zksync Head of Business Development @Ozhar broke them down in a recent roundtable discussion on ZK hosted by CoinFund Partner @einar_hb
@SenWarren again demonstrating a shockingly poor understanding of the crypto industry. Maybe if you spent half as much time researching the space as blindly arguing against it, the Democrats could have put out thoughtful regulation while you had control. decrypt.co/331818/elizabe…
OG digital art will be all the rage soon Scooped up this from @jbrukh Digital culture is about to get a jumpstart Hop on board
Just sold "AI Self-Portrait" on @foundation. Made it back in primordial AI times by fine-tuning a #stablediffusion model on myself. Congrats to @redbeardnft and thanks for the attention. 🙏

People who are optimizing the "fastest 100M ARR of all time" metric should also optimize the slow bleed death, ideally selling to Zuck at the top, etc.
This team has done a three month deep dive into institutional adoption of blockchains, and it’s pretty clear @zksync tech crushes.
Crypto space will be distracted by SaaS (being automated by AI), DATs (a flash in the pan), payment companies (a few needles in a haystack), corporate adoption (hard to achieve good exposure). Mainstream adoption is exciting. But while everyone is distracted, the biggest crypto…
