Ever since @felix2feng dragged me into the @indexcoop a few months ago, i've spent my nights and weekends digging into on-chain asset management IMO decentralized index funds are going to be the first DeFi product to cross the chasm and pull in a mainstream audience

Crypto founders and VCs need to stop valuing early stage, in development, pre-token projects at >$1b until they've earned it Building something worth 7-9 figures is an incredible achievement, not everything needs to be a unicorn at launch

5/ Every crypto VC is currently facing a choice of leaning into the meme stuff or continuing to back more 'professional' projects I think VC's are roughly split on how they approach it But the longer the meme token market remains hot, more VC's will cave and jump in

why does no one in crypto talk about ? threw off $2.5b in online gambling revenue last year (most gambling done through crypto) seems like one of the largest mainstream crypto businesses around today
