got into techstars web3 accelerator
got a great vibe from them but the terms aren’t ideal
anyone here have experience with them?
would recommend/would not

Was in the first techstars web3 cohort in 2019. AMA.

founder @ paperchain.com. smoker's club. always was, always will be aboriginal land.

Best thing: everything about being a startup. First time founder, thought I knew what I was doing/speed I was working at. Completely wrong. 
Worst thing: found out co-founders weren't as committed as me.

For me, it was worth it. The mentoring, support, network is amazing.

best thing you gained from it?
worst thing about it?

The lead LP at the investment partner for our cohort was indicated by FBI for blackmail. Techstars scrubbed any mention of the program as a result.

Oh nice. I thought the Launchpool accelerator in 2021 was Techstars’ first web3 accelerator. I helped Pete and Hugh w/ PR and marketing for that one.
