Liquidity pools are an underrated gem in alternative investing. They combine the best aspects of private credit with greater transparency and flexibility, but so often get overlooked! https://www.medici.ai/post/yes-liquidity-pools-can-beat-alternative-assets

It's funny to me that traditional investors and managers tend to stay clear of crypto because they worry about risk, meanwhile stable-coin liquidity pools are out here beating private credit with less default...

Financial professionals know investing in private funds is risky, but the real issue is lack of transparency and liquidity, not the assets: https://www.medici.ai/post/private-markets-aren-t-risky-by-nature-it-s-by-design-unnecessary-operational-risk-in-the-private

In light of Biden's new tax proposal, I think it's time we sit down and really come to terms with the fact that the US has a spending problem, not a revenue problem. Image courtesy of the IMF - US Gov't spending as a % of GDP since 1800.

From a discussion I had this morning: Private markets must evolve as AI and blockchain drive transparency, challenging their exclusivity. Expect a shift to cost-efficient, accessible investing—just as we've seen in public markets. The future is open and democratized investing.

Lots of people seem to think crypto investing is just a Las Vegas wannabe, not realizing that there are actually income investing options in crypto. For those who wanna understand more, we just released this: https://www.medici.ai/post/crypto-traders-need-some-diversification-too-you-know

Yesterday, I spoke at a conference full of CDOs and CTOs from CeFi. After chatting with them, it’s clear: I’m not worried about competition from that corner. Most think the whole blockchain industry is a joke and see no real utility in it. 🙃

Am I missing something? It looks like they are just charging for the ability to select your seat in advance??? (Which is pretty normal).

Had a super interesting discussion today with a guy from...wait for it...the insurance industry. Was cool to walk through the way insurance companies view blockchain. As a founder, it made me self-analyze how we view risk, and think of the ways that we can better manage it going forward.

Austin Campbell penned this great piece on Beba's current SEC challenges, showing the nonsense regulatory landscape facing blockchain technology in the USA. It's a must-read—concise, easily understood, yet very informative. https://blockworks.co/news/crypto-clarity-sec-beba-defi

To build, you must think rationally. To grow, you must think empirically. To sell, you must realize that your customers are doing neither of these things.

Just returned from a discussion on the adoption of stablecoins for US payments. IMO a significant barrier is the US consumer's affinity for credit card rewards. Will the benefits of stables to merchants encourage a shift in payment preferences?

I am seeing more of my peers move to a "own productive assets / rent everything else" model. They are forgoing buying homes and cars and instead buying real estate, stocks, crypto, and income assets. Thoughts on this trend? Anyone else seeing the same?

Depending on whether or not constant participation is required, I don't think it's a problem. In most organizations, people tend to self-segregate into a group of active and inactive participants. Just look at Youtube: ~61 million creators vs 2+ Billion users.

Highly recommend "Alchemy" by Rory Sutherland. It's a great reminder not to be blinded by rationalism at the expense of empiricism and to keep in mind that logical solutions aren't always the only or the best solutions.

The Web3 build space has been plagued by these issues because a number of people in the space live in a self-created echo-chamber.

I think "product-led" development is the only form of development. To build something when you are not really sure who you are building for / what problem you are really solving is a waste of time (unless you are just running it as a self-learning / personal art exercise).

Product-led is development - building anything with no prospect of an audience (unless it is just for you) is an easy and enticing trap.
