@_Daniel_Ospina Good work, I'm authentically happy to read this. Wish you even more grow and success in It. - Gustavo S.

Marcus Aurelius said "what are you afraid of losing, when nothing in the world belongs to you". For entrepreneurs, it's how tangible the dream of a better future feels. If you're really in it, that future is a version of you. If your company fails, you don't only let go of the hopes for money and success but you let go of an image of yourself. I had 2 failed startups before RnDAO and a small success. With every death experience I had to grief an idea of what it would be, and I had to grief the death of who I thought I was. So I could better see what it truly is and truly I am. Removing the veil is hard, even brutal, but has made my stronger every time. At the bottom of the pit, when I finally let go, I encounter not dispair but resilience deeper than I thought I had. And with every cycle I become a little bit better at seeing what is and evolving myself and my business before the world makes me. Over time, I get better at defining myself not through my successes and failures, but through my ability to see myself without ego and adapt to the world. It's a work in progress. I have a long way to go, and sometimes I find myself having taken a step back. I have a lot more to learn about this but with every bit of improvement, I feel so much better and also I'm way better at my work. Sharing so it can hopefully inspire others. And if you have any thoughts on this regard, please do share!

Building a person-2-commons agreements requires some collective effort and attention! This guides simplifies it all! 📘 elderly-accordion-7b3.notion.site/Setting-Agreem…

@_Daniel_Ospina looking forward to see the first success case in RnDAO.

How do you fundraise before customers? VCs are increasingly risk averse. It is very common to demand revenue, even at the early stages. And although vibe coding makes prototyping easier, in many cases it's not enough for an MVP, customer development, etc. Building a business takes a lot of time and effort, and doing it on weekends and evenings is not viable for many. In most cases, founders without significant savings or a wealthy network are stuck. The good news is that pre-seed investment is not dead, it is evolving. From an investor perspective, looking at metrics and picking who to fund works after there is traction. Before that, you need very deep expertise on the industry and market to know which ideas have a chance, and you need time building a relationship with a founder, a couple calls don't cut it. Most VCs are too detached from the action to know at the early stage, they need you to first provide them proof. But getting to a proof takes time, thus leaving a funding gap. This is where Venture Studios come in. For example, at RnDAO we have a research team constantly speaking with potential customers and identifying market opportunities. We then work with Entrepreneurs in Residence who receive an stipend so they can go full time to validate a solution with our help. If the opportunity is validated, we incorporate the company, appoint them as a founder, and put enough cash to build an MVP and start selling. We do this in the domain of collaboration tech (aka. B2b SaaS, future of work). We don't do gaming, we don't do media, we don't do health tech. We work in the niche we have spent a decade plus obsessing over, so we can work with founders shoulder to shoulder and assess bets BEFORE there is proof. We compound learnings from one startup to the next, and grow our talent and investor network as well as customer list with every iteration. We are fractional co-founders providing hands of advise, not hands off investors. We work with people for 12 months or more, not a 3 months accelerator. We do 5x more work than an incubator program, often coming up with the idea, assembling the team, and doing what it takes to get it off the ground. As such, wrtake a higher cut than accelerators, proportional to the effort we put and risk we take. But because we know we're at an advantage working across a portfolio, while founders bet everything in a single startup, we give founders and teams who prove themselves. ownership in RnDAO too. Also incentivising startups in our portfolio to collaborate. Founders win, we win. We stand in the shoulders of giants like Kindred Capital and venture studios before us. But break new ground by bringing these ideas together into a cohesive model to build startups not in isolation but as a Swarm. Pre-seed is not dead. Long live pre-seed.

The internet lowered the cost of speech. Blockchains lower the cost of agreement.

Want to collaborate to Public Good Innovation on Decentralized Governance? giveth.io/cause/decentra… 1 USDC for this cause will benefit these projects and more coming soon! @grassEcon @0xUrbanika @regensunite @tecmns @PublicNouns @collabberry

p2p or human to human direct interactions is something that can expand to all types of context. it works in families, villages and cities. there is no more generative interaction than a conversation

We are about to start!

If you take an agreement you shall respect your commitment. This is why we need tokenomics in partners & contributors compensation.

@abcxyz_tomato Not only in DAOs. Free riding is one of the foundational collaboration challenges

Accountability is a matter to build with more than one tweet thread. Privacy, HR AI Agents & Web3 Accounting Incentives are the way forward. Do you want to help us build the future of Organizational Accountability? x.com/sepu85/status/…

@Katiefrench891 @TBSocialist what about a worker DAO launcher?

@TBSocialist I would love to see a worker DAO or mutual aid DAO. I know we’ve talked about it before haha.

starting a worker cooperative just means going founder mode without extractor mode

There's no (crypto) way better than Collabberry to do this in a fair and transparent way.

@collabberry Trust in the process, not just the platform. Connections matter.

@_Daniel_Ospina Curious how you define **Collaboration** if you really think that all B2B SaaS are CollabTech

CollabTech is the macro category. Some tools are human centered, others not. Not everything in the category is good (whichever your criteria). It's a big category with multiple eras and tools built from all kind of values. I do agree it shouldn't be strictly limited to b2b e.g. notion started b2c as a land and expand approach. @meetwithhq is more B2C but enabling groups, so basically Swarm oriented (somewhat in the middle of b2c and b2b)

Collab Tech ≠ B2B SaaS It's not about optimizing workflows or closing loops. It's about deepening relationships. Collaboration is not a transaction. It's a practice of shared accountability, of standing with and for each other. Collab Tech must be built with care for the relational fabric — not just dashboards and deals.

@collabberry You're already in the folder of recommended apps accompanying the documentary!

DAOs are still my favorite vertical. No matter how many DAOs failed, by 2030 all internet companies will be onchain. Zero doubt 🫡
