Today, I'm officially launching @0xGroomLake . It's no secret that DeFi is a massive target for lone wolf hackers and nation-state actors alike. That’s why we're going to equip you with operatives formed in that crucible. 🧵Thread:

Drosera could have contained or mitigated 90% of exploits based on YOY data spanning from 2020. If we apply that to the total for 2022, that number means a security impact on around $3.44 billion. Thus, @DroseraNetwork .

Europe is an extremely attractive space for adoption of @DroseraNetwork . If you’re an EU-based crypto project, would love to have a discussion on how @DroseraNetwork gets you to compliance before MiCA cybersecurity requirements put you in the crosshairs of regulators.

In my opinion, Europe will be the leading Web3 region in the next decade. Here's why: 🧵 ↓ 👀 - It is the only region that had increased total $ VC investments in 22 compared to 21. - Europe has seen a higher number of newly incorporated Crypto Startups than any other region. -
