Agreed, financialization can be a component of helping something take off but new products driven by composability is what I find most interesting (and sustainable)!

Nice writeup! 👍🏼

I like this a lot more than the one about total financialization of the social layer/socmedia - which I found somewhat flawed and believe friendtech showed this extreme focus on financialization is usually short-lived and at best a niche app :)

Yes good catch! I’m so used to reading / hearing it in relation to Sheryl that I misattributed it as her quote :)

Nice write-up. Small correction...I believe "When you're offered a seat on the rocket ship, don't ask what seat." is from Eric Schmidt. He famously told that to Sheryl Sandberg when she was asking about what her role would be at Google.
