startups

The startup operation playbook is constantly evolving. You’re never going to keep up on your own.

There is no replacement for a strong network that you can rely on to give you guidance when you have new questions or challenges.

The ability to be reactive and move quickly is one of our biggest advantages as a startup.

Half of BizOps (all of it??) is managing a massive to-do list & not letting it crush your spirit lol

Trying to improve on creating realistic action plans for the day. Not easy 🙂

I’m excited to announce @a16zcrypto is leading the $9M Series A round in /daylightenergy! 🔆 Daylight is building a decentralized protocol to fund & coordinate distributed energy resources.

Daylight will initially sell distributed energy resource (DER) data to energy companies. It plans to enable anyone to build a virtual power plant, with access to info about DERs & the ability to control their deployment.

Imagine a home with solar panels, an electric vehicle battery, & a smart thermostat. Daylight lets the homeowner capture & sell data from those devices to energy companies to better manage the grid.

Co-founder & CEO @jasonbadeaux is a leading expert on decentralized network design for the physical world. Along with co-founders @powertrader and Udit Patel, they've built a crack team of energy grid operators, smart contract engineers, and domain experts.

We’re thrilled to help Daylight build a better & more decentralized energy grid! https://a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/investing-in-daylight/

This is amazing! Me and marcus made a similar MVP back in 2022 for a Chainlink hackathon and talked to some energy companies about it but noone was interested back then. Glad people are catching up now 🤩

Worried I might be getting startup brain. Got a craving for a burger king and a couple of minutes later I find myself looking up the cost of a franchize and considering locations in my area

Startups that rely on API connections to an underlying service like Twitter or Facebook have historically been rugged. It seems like history is repeating itself w/ people building atop “Open”AI.

Rebase

If you're seriously working on a project and looking to fund it, DM me

startups = growth 🧠 

if you're not growing, you're dying

It's very simple: Web3 Social will grow exponentially the closer we get to the US Elections 

Why? 🧵

I've been obsessed with being resource constrained since it forces me to always prioritize the most important thing

We're bootstrapping with @pirosb3 as the solo dev -> what's the most important thing to ship?

I live out of 1 backpack -> what are the most important items?

(I know I'm in a privileged spot to do this)
