Never “just watch” F1 ever again. Back your favourite drivers and constructors. Win if they perform well. Compound as the world catches up. Starting today.
Testing @Flashduels Alpha on internal testnet. What comes next: > F1 auctions, followed by Football > User-owned leagues > Duels + Flash tournaments Drop me a DM if you would live to be among the first cohort of users. Not playing exclusivity game - simply DM so we can create a better feedback loop.
It’s been test of patience, resilience and creativity, but we are here. Incredible work by @rajeebkrmalik to stitch everything together. Launching soon
I don't understand why every prediction market mini-app or agent isn't solely focused on sports. Especially in group chats with friends. It's THE thing.
Day 7/365: Building @FilamentFinance Learning the hard way: Getting the product right in the first go is similar to winning the lottery on your first ticket. It took us so many different products and product iterations to reach @Flashduels: > Filament v0.5 - hit order scaling issue; hard to revamp the entire model > Filament v1 - funding-borrowing rate harmony in OB-COMB pool hybrid was creating fee distribution issues > Filament v1.2 - OB manipulation led to mapping edge case > Built Run It Back -> fast games needed 1000s of users participating > 60 seconds options - without the house; was hard to sustain > Flashduels (Basic Binary Options) - wasn't needed by users > Launchpad for Binary Options - no clear differentiation from prediction markets > Binary Options for F1 - F1 caught attention, but the model felt complex All of these iterations helped us gain better insights about users, products, and most importantly markets to tap into. What works on paper rarely survives first contact with reality - liquidity cycles shift, market timing throws surprises, user behaviour doesn’t match assumptions. You realise quickly: the product isn’t something you figure out once - it’s something you uncover over time. I’ve found myself stuck before fixated on one version of the product, one idea of how it should work. And honestly, that’s where progress stalled. I was busy pushing a car with square wheels, refusing to see there might be a better shape. The breakthrough came not from a “perfect vision,” but from putting things out, observing real user behaviour, and doubling down on what worked even if it looked nothing like my original idea. Iterations help you spot the sparks, let go of dead weight, and move closer to product-market fit - not in a straight line, but in responsive loops. Every product that compounds eventually gets there through speed, feedback, and the humility to keep evolving. Build, release, listen, iterate. Again and again.

The most bullish uptrend for crypto: NET NEW MARKETS Crypto 1.0: Cryptographic, P2P and programmable money into existence - net new markets. Crypto 2.0: Synthetic, instantly redeemable and globally accessible dollar - net new market for international remittance and payments without middlemen. Crypto 3.0: Tokenised assets for social trends, equities, RWAs - 24/7 and fair price discovery - net new market format. Crypto 4.0: Economies built on top of the tokenised assets - conviction markets, 0% interest markets, tradable royalties - net new market not just in crypto but Internet as a whole. Tokenisation is only step 1 towards the “promised economy” forefathers of crypto envisioned.
