5th CEO Forum — this time at @UChicago. Asked the students tonight: what's the endgame for crypto? My answer: not to fight banks. To become one. We're not waiting for banking to catch up. We're already building toward it. That's ABF.

We're so excited to have our first private founder circle in Chicago! Thanks for the support of @introductioncom, this event will be featuring our founder @helen_abfinance. No panels. No scripts. Real talks. Invite-only · Curated · Off-script → luma.com/djm6xtnp

Mayur Kamat (@5degreez) is CPO at @n26, ex-Head of Product at @Binance, and built and scaled products at @Google (Gmail Mobile, Hangouts), @Microsoft, and travel unicorn @Agoda. Mayur shares endless wild stories and a lot of unconventional product insights I've never heard before. There's something in this conversation for everyone. Some of my biggest takeaways: 1. Binance’s leadership met every single day (often at 11 p.m.) so no decision waited more than 24 hours. Tight feedback loops beat elaborate planning. 2. Founder CZ kept about 55 direct reports so individual contributors were never more than one level away from the CEO. This forced leaders to live in the details and empowered ICs to “own the whole cell.” 3. Mayur literally moved his desk to whichever team had the biggest 10x upside—or downside—at that moment. Apply the same lens: growth and compliance issues usually move the needle fastest in fintech. 4. Treat “strategy” as a hypothesis pipeline: ship small, measure fast, double down on what the data proves. Tools like Statsig, Gemini summaries, and cohort dashboards make this possible at scale. 5. Work at companies that compound learning. High-growth environments (Google in the early mobile era, Agoda’s A/B culture, Binance’s hyperscale, N26’s pan-EU banking) give you daily reps and a powerful alumni network—worth far more than early salary bumps. 6. Optimize for your superpowers, not your gaps. Identify what energizes you—via StrengthsFinder-style assessments or honest reflection—and choose roles where those strengths decide success. Early in your career, ignore compensation differentials that don’t accelerate this fit. 7. Fast, reversible decisions beat “perfect” ones. In most product calls there’s no right vs. wrong—only slow vs. fast. Move quickly, learn, and pivot; reserve heavyweight processes for bets that could kill the company or the user. 8. Fintech creates exceptional PMs. Banking/financial products involve existential tradeoffs daily, requiring exceptional stakeholder management and decision-making skills.

My next topic: BANK ACCOUNTS, and how an immigrant with the "wrong" nationality and documents can get one. Which bank did you start with, and why?

@JacobCanfield If you are incurring losses (or profits) at that level, talk to a tax attorney.

@5degreez Not in the US. There’s no loss carry over

If I spend 10-12 hours a day finding the best investments and trades and do well and make $1,000,000. The government gets to take $370,000 (37%) in short term capital gains taxes. If I fuck up and lose $1,000,000 on bad investments and trades, I get to write off $3,000 from my taxes. Does this seem like a fair deal?

@JacobCanfield No, there is no limit. You can deduct that entire $1M loss from next year's profit (if you do end up making 1M+)

@5degreez $3,000 per year. Lol

@NoahBPerlman Long hair?

Someone in my network recently referred a "rockstar" candidate to me and I was trying to think of which attributes of a rockstar would make the applicant particularly effective in compliance. Couldn't come up with any.
