Full time since Sep 2022. We were pulled in by the problems in the market. Kept doing discovery with companies/funds to understand what they were trying to accomplish and couldn't. Started building a solution in Apr 2023, having discerned its critical parts. Will be launching throughout 2 quarters of this year.

Thank you. And agreed, it does. We hired a legal team (two actually, one for capital markets support - Pillsbury; the other for getting our licenses - led by a former branch chief that used to regulate NASDAQ with the SEC). The rest is to be hired. π₯² Weβre both technical and senior, so weβre lean af. π«‘

Challenging af too, but not the hardest weβve had it. Got significant support from 3rd party folks, a lot of whom are heavy hitters. Funny you ask, I think mostly here and private groups we are either in or run. Know a lot of founders directly, and have access to good networks. Should I know of another place?
