something most don't know, CashApp is the most used fintech app in the US  (~53M MAU)

AMA on anything consumer fintech, there is huge parallel with crypto social.  
Good starting points:

- growth & acquisition
- consumer behavior
- monetizaton

most of the conversation here seems to be centered around product innovations

but from what i’ve read elsewhere, cash app won bc of early distribution advantages from partnering with cultural icons / making it seem cool to early users

how else do you think they nailed distribution?

how could a cash app killer do better?

was there a magic number or moment when you knew a customer would retain?

facebook had their “7 friends in 10 days” metric - curious if cash app had something similar 

thanks for sharing these learnings!

distribution was mostly through paid referrals ($5 for you and your friend). It was turned on aggressively after nailing monetization

another part is like you said viral marketing & brand activation through culture
