Hi Casters. I wrote about Network Density this morning using our portfolio company Blackbird as an example. https://avc.xyz/network-density

I’ve been following Blackbird, keeping an eye on the new features they’re adding and their Dune dashboard (hope they make it to Europe in 1-2y)

It’s great to see how they’re growing, and as you mentioned, to grow in the right direction. One key aspect of building that network density is their tokenomics. Scaling it carefully is crucial to creating a circular economy within the network

i could not agree more about the importance of creating a real economy

Yeah I think they've done a great job so far (and NYC is probably the perfect market to start in given the restaurant scene here). The density helps a lot with habit building as well: rather than just a one-off thing at some restaurant you go to, it's more likely that you see a Blackbird puck again and go "oh I know what to do" which benefits both the consumers and the restaurants.

mfw chicago still not mentioned because not dense enough yet T_T

all facts tho, excited to see some more restaurants adapt in chicago so we can get some density going here

i also wanna steal opentable and tock users but that's a different thread...
