Congrats to @AK_EtherMachine and the entire team! A world class team, combined with institutional support, and the ability to operate across crypto and traditional rails...that's incredible potential to reshape how traditional finance plugs into @ethereum. This is the kind of infrastructure that unlocks the next big wave. @Factor6Capital is proud to be a part of it. All the best!

Absolute music to my ears. @Fiserv is as engrained in financial infrastructure as it gets, and they’re now launching their own stablecoin platform. A huge boost to our thesis on the coming proliferation of stablecoins. My take on the implications: 1. They chose @solana , a public blockchain: Why it matters: Transparency, broader network effects, and most importantly, potential value accrual to token holders (unlike private blockchains where value accrues to a few centralized players). That’s our whole raison d’être. 2.  Interoperability with several leading stablecoins. Makes it accessible across different types of issuers and stablecoin models. FIUSD can serve as a bridge to broader CeFi and DeFi opportunities. 3. Built-in compliance. Fraud monitoring, risk management, and settlement controls make it bank-friendly.  This is the definition of “programmable money” and a true differentiator. 4. They’re exploring deposit tokens. On-chain representations of bank deposits = capital efficiency. Imagine every tri-party structure using this instead—simple, fast, and fully auditable. We’re going to hear this term a lot more. 5. Huge Reach: 3,000+ regional/community banks enable them to issue or brand tokens, 10k institutions, 6M, merchants, 90B+ transactions. Adoption just got a whole lot easier. If you don’t yet see how stablecoins are set to permeate every layer of finance, we're happy to walk you through it! h/t @WSJ

I want to make stablecoins my entire personality. With the Senate passing the GENIUS Act yesterday, it's a good time to revisit the most obvious stablecoin use case: cross-border payments. Take remittances: Wire transfer: $35, arrives sometime next week 🐢 Stablecoin: <$0.01, arrives before you finish this sentence 🚀

I went on a podcast and somehow didn't say "number go up". We got into crypto, AI, biotech, and why fundamentals still matter. Big thanks to @mikeschroeder, CFA and Skyler Steinke for the thoughtful questions. If you're curious how we @Factor6Capital apply our framework across both digital and traditional markets--in the complex, fast-moving world of Web3--this one's absolutely worth a listen. Always happy to connect with others thinking seriously about this space.

Just read Elliott's latest letter on crypto. It’s predictably bearish, comparing crypto to speculative surges like pet rocks and Beanie Babies, and warning that institutional “dabbling” will lead to chaos. My biggest takeaway? Institutions, like Elliott, are now forced to care about Bitcoin. That alone is worth acknowledging. What surprised me is the lack of an obvious comparison to gold—a fixed-supply asset with thousands of years of history. Bitcoin is called “digital gold” for a reason, and I think that conversation deserves more attention. Sure, crypto’s path will be volatile, and there are certainly pockets of speculative excess (just like traditional markets!). But institutions adopting it—via ETF inflows, accumulation by sovereigns, states, and corporates—signals a massive shift in how we think about store-of-value assets. I get the skepticism. But for us, as digital asset managers, that skepticism equals opportunity. ft.com/content/5fe695…

Fundamental L/S had a nice year—but can it outperform? Traditional equity long/short strategies are known for their saturation and frequent struggles to beat benchmarks like the S&P 500, highlighted by this chart from GS (note: SPX TR returned 26% in 2024). But one reason we’ve gravitated to digital assets is the stark difference: * There remains plenty of alpha to uncover. * The space is highly idiosyncratic—new information is still being priced in efficiently. * And let’s face it: it’s just plain fun being immersed in new tech like DeFi, AI, and on-chain infra that can drive socioeconomic change. We at @Factor6Capital are betting that institutions will rapidly shift their attention here. As traditional markets mature and compress returns, the allure of Web3 investing--with the potential for asymmetric returns--becomes undeniable. The future of alpha generation may not just be about finding the next undervalued stock—it’s about being early where markets haven’t fully understood the game.

This could be AI's blockchain moment. How about tokenized datasets so that publishers can get proper attribution/monetization whenever AI models consume their content? We've got some ideas. wsj.com/business/media…

At @Factor6Capital, we’re super focused on the shift by Bitcoin miners toward high-performance computing for AI. A recent GS report projects 160% growth in U.S. data center power demand from 2023-2030, with AI accounting for 20% of that demand by 2030. Current infrastructure is insufficient to meet this surge, positioning miners—who already control the critical assets of cheap power and infrastructure—to fill the gap. We're encouraged by the new vehicle from BlackRock and Microsoft, which further validates the AI datacenter thesis and underscores the need for continued capital investment. Skate to where the puck is going...

@Factor6Capital is proud to support @myco_io in their Series A round. Their vision to democratize live streaming and video-on-demand by sharing ad revenue among creators, viewers, and the platform is truly transformative. From the outset, we’ve been inspired by relentless drive from @umairmasoom, Phil McKenzie, and team. Congratulations to everyone involved!
Umair myco@umairmasoom

Thrilled to announce that @myco_io has completed its first closing of our Series A with $10 MN raised from strategic partners & investors across GCC, North America and EU. Institutional participants include our seed investor & advisor @Invest_Daman and new investors such as @AptosLabs, @mocha_ventures, @GhafCapital, BDigital, Arts3 Foundation, @Factor6Capital, @enjinstarter & Mix Media Network (Egypt). The funding includes strategic tickets from prominent angels such as @FinTechGuyDubai, @KendrickEsq, Andrew Durgee, Tohfeek Gafoor, Alex Vella, Sathish Subbiah, @lalatravels and others (that prefer being #anon). Being proud advocates of tokenization, its also important to announce that our successful round includes the participation of 88 accredited investors via @joinrepublic (republic.com/my-co) This funding announcement comes on the back of last week's announcement about our major multi-million dollar deal with @Aptos Foundation which will bring significant additional funding into myco to meet our growth & #Web3 adoption objectives. Read more about myco's raise & business performance here arabianbusiness.com/money/corporat… I would like to sincerely thank our Board Members Shehab Gargash, Ahmed Khizer Khan, Hubertus Thonhauser, Dr Lamees Hamdan and early supporters & shareholders @GargashGroup, @nadeemPlanetN, @StefanTieleman for backing myco from early days. We have come a long way as an organisation on all financial and user metrics with a product that our consumers love. All our success is the result of the commitment of the entire myco team. Most importantly, we thank our global hashtag#web3 community that have stood by us since the time when myco (formerly #MContent) was only an idea on a whitepaper without a product and way before we had a performing business and a powerhouse cap table! It is the collective conviction of these thousands of individuals whom we call our community members, that motivates us to wake up every day, to grind and to keep believing that we are here to disrupt a $500 BN video streaming industry.
