Neil@neilhar·
I’m back and excited to share Maximum Frequency Ventures inaugural $50m fund with the world. MFV was built as an evolution to venture capital in crypto. CT is quick to dunk on VCs, often rightfully so, but venture capital remains still one of the strongest forces for good in this industry. @moshaikh @alextang @jerome_ and I built MFV as a vehicle designed to support founders to build generational companies while we remain in the trenches with them. Supporting builders was the best part of working at Aptos - seeing hungry founders grind and win. We cultivated 200+ projects with a collective $150m raised across them. Those experiences taught us what great founders need and where VC often falls short. That realization led us here. We’re a VC that spends more time building than investing. Rolling up our sleeves is the foundation for this venture. Our team came together naturally as we saw ~90% of the collective business outcomes at Aptos. From the biggest partnerships to ecosystem-defining deals, we’ve lived the highs and lows of scaling in real time and we’ll bring that same experience to every company we invest in. The timing couldn’t be better. The next wave of crypto demands builders who can execute with precision, resilience, and speed. We’re ready to match that energy. It’s time for VCs to build. MFV will be in the trenches. See you there.

Big day. Crypto will win and it will seem obvious in hindsight
David Sacks@DavidSacks

Tomorrow’s markup of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act is a monumental step in making the U.S. the Crypto Capital of the World and maintaining America’s leadership in innovation. I applaud Chairman @SenatorTimScott and the Senate Banking Committee for working so hard to craft the necessary compromises to advance this legislation. At a staff level, I also want to thank White House crypto director @patrickjwitt for helping us get to this point. Finally I want to thank the crypto industry for its efforts. There are roughly 50 million people in the U.S. who own or use crypto. This legislation will ensure that this ecosystem can innovate and flourish for years to come.

I don't believe any perp DEX on Solana is going to gain traction now in 2026 Hyperliquid is too good and too dominant, there's no 100x improvement that would make people switch, I don't think think token incentives will work in this market either Solana backed the wrong horse with Drift, which any trader could have told them was a massive piece of shit with a horrible user experience

ive spent the last year building the best architecture for trading we chose solana because we’re aligned with the same end state: internet capital markets with global access, high-performance execution, and on-chain settlement. we just have different opinions on how to get there blink is built to provide the same execution guarantees as traditional exchanges without making compromises on transparency, verifiability or fair-access colocated users get deterministic, ultra-low latency order entry and market data: users win because they are better traders not because they have an unfair edge blink is fully verifiable, auditable and transparent: users can audit every property of blink in real-time to make this all possible we're evolving sequencer design. orders are sequenced at line-rate, in real-time and distributed over @doublezero multicast blink is built for price discovery: real-time sequencing and market data, fair-access, no speed-bumps until now traders have been forced to choose between best-execution on black-box models or lower-quality transparent open-models if you are a trader, market maker, or liquidity provider who wants to compete on an equal playing field where the best traders win, reach out, id love to talk

Crypto built global settlement before it built exchange-grade execution. blink is built to close that gap. Physical infrastructure. Equalized access. Tradfi-grade execution. Blockchain settlement. Today, blink comes out of stealth.

I've been closely following this team's journey for coming on the last four years. MFV backed Blink because crypto needs exchange infrastructure that can compete on execution without giving up transparent settlement. This team is building towards a future where serious markets can form on crypto rails. Big swing and the right team to do it.

Hard to assess but the main trait we look for in all the founders we invest in is delusional optimism Working harder than your peers is no longer enough, you need to have a completely different mindset
Carnivore Aurelius ©🥩 ☀️🦙@AlpacaAurelius

you need to be delusionally optimistic negative thinking poisons your brain and leads to congitive decline whereas positive thinking, and gaslighting yourself into thinking everything is amazing, ACTUALLY makes your life amazing too. you must be a silly goose

What is the best modern example of religion building? I think of Trumpism semi-religiuous tendencies, but it is not quite it. Are there any examples? What does a "new" religion look like today?

Less interested in the >$100m fundraises of projects competing in a crowded space and more interested in the sub $5m fundraises of companies building an entirely new category. Blue ocean founders >
