Founder Fortune Cookies

My first year building a company taught me lessons no podcast nor Twitter thread could. Hopefully some of these lessons resonate with others.

A few years ago, I encountered some internet founders who often said they would use big data to solve problems for users. But in reality, none of them actually possessed big data or truly understood what it was, and their current businesses were far from reaching the stage where big data was needed. Now, the same scenario is unfolding in the crypto and AI fields, where people are already gearing up to deploy crypto and AI even before their products have moved past the MVP stage.
