on killer wedges...

a "wedge" is a tightly defined market segment that a startup aims to dominate as a springboard to a larger market

- Killer wedges let you test your product and gather early data and learnings relevant for growth
- Opposite approach: trying to be all things to all people.
- Crypto Twitter is a poor wedge due to scattered attention
- Focus on the intersection of crypto-comfortable individuals and your specific user persona
- Ex: Socially-ambitious consumer crypto projects targeting college campuses for viral growth. College students create viral networks with close geographic proximity, constant social interactions, and high-affinity to related user groups
- Use wedges to gather learnings and build a long-term strategy.
- Stay adaptable
