Sure, I wish Kevin had made his Substack subscription an NFT with a limited supply. That way, when enough people are getting value from reading about whatever he’s doing, there’s a price to that access. Once that price exceeds the value you are getting from it (whatever that price is to you), you can sell it! And, yes, I do think the creator is entitled to a cut of that transaction. So it’s the same idea that FriendTech, Substack, OG NFTs (non-art), Cameo, the Super Bowl, or a @taylorswift concert are after. Because at the end of the day, NFTs are just a free market pricing mechanism for gated access. It’s always been about access. Which is why access was always the alpha.

What follows isn’t an expose. It’s not a gotcha. It’s probably nothing that will surprise you, either. I wrote (quite some time ago) that “Access was always the alpha” In Kevin’s substack, that’s basically exactly what you find. It’s simple and pure access. What IS his investing philosophy? What supplements does he take? What are the latest gadgets he’s playing around with? I don’t call him out to shit on the wreckage of Proof or his missteps. But it’s a realization that NFTs as [temporary?] access tickets is probably what we were, indeed, after the entire time. Art aside, NFTs function best as a gatekeeping mechanism that makes online community access a priced (and tradable!) asset.

I followed @kevinrose from the earliest podcasts with @tferriss I was a Day 1 member of his NFT project, Proof I joined his new Substack, and what I found didn’t surprise me:

1) one thing to perhaps integrate in here is video performance? E.g., helps you see how engagement is trending on any given video/theme/etc so you know where to double down when editing automations 2) needless to say, integration w YT shorts and/or TikTok that is seamless make this killer Nice!!

Two thoughts from this: 1) are you implying the questions (and therefore videos) would be generated for you and the entire process automated? Part of me thinks the fun is in coming up w the q’s 2) Potentially interesting vertical could be LinkedIn’s new short form videos for professionals Awesome stuff!!

Thanks for sharing. While I’m sure she’s grateful for each of those roles, I’m also sure there are ones she appreciated more than others. A good reminder that, just like a stock, careers have ups and downs but the tough, gritty, determined ones tend to be up and to the right.

ITAP near Pubkey, an awesome BTC bar in Greenwich Village. You can pay for drinks and food with BTC over lightning, which is pretty sweet. See, in 2024 you CAN finally buy a beer with BTC!

I’d totally pay to kick the tires on getting into a niche here (fitness perhaps?) and pushing yt shorts to see how it goes!

Realized capital from an investment in a company that is distributed to LPs from the VC, but contractually able to be “recalled” from the LPs back to the VC so as to recycle into new investments

@fredwilson.eth not quite as rosy a topic as reserves, but how does USV think about recalling capital?
