Barry Silbert: "I think a Zcash $ZEC can go up 500x. I think a Bittensor $TAO can go up 500x. And so our portfolio is allocated accordingly."

I'm extremely honoured to announce I will be joining the Radix Foundation as interim Hyperscale Lead! 🫡 Official announcement will follow early next week, and hope to share some good news on current state as well. TLDR: Goal this week is 100k tps, and I'm extremely close.

People are understandably worried with CMC showing the market on borderline extreme fear. The thing is, I’m more bullish on DeFi than ever. What began as an experiment is now a race to build the financial infrastructure layer of the 21st century. Stablecoins, tokenised assets, and on-chain identity aren’t speculation or ideological ideas anymore. The next decade will be defined by who wins at each layer: → The asset layer (stablecoins, RWAs) → The application layer (dApps, marketplaces) → The infrastructure layer (L1s, settlement networks) Big Tech, TradFi, regulators and even governments are now entering this race. Radix has always been positioned for this phase. The network is live. Regulation-ready. Designed from first principles for secure asset issuance, scalable settlement, and UX that works for both retail and institutions. DeFi’s future won’t be decided by price charts. It’ll be decided by adoption and by the platforms that make digital assets safe, usable, and globally interoperable. So yes, the market’s rough. But that’s when the noise fades, and fundamentals start to matter again. That’s where I’m bullish.

Just so you know, there are projects that aren’t even paying attention to what the market is doing. They’re literally just building. Who’s doing this?
