More than 90% of DAS sponsors want to re-sign. The highest in Blockworks history and a sign that deals were done. Feels good to grow the industry.

Here is an example of how we meme’d bitcoin onto Wall Street. Back in 2018, a friend told me about an old marketing campaign that suggested investors “get off zero” in terms of their allocation away from cash, bonds, and real estate. I borrowed the idea and applied it to bitcoin. The entire Morgan Creek team started repeating it over and over again to anyone who would listen. Conferences. Podcasts. Private meetings. Tweets. The argument was that a 0% allocation to bitcoin was wrong, so you just had to do anything but that. Fast forward 8 years and now Fidelity is publishing research using the same phrase. A literal meme that started on the internet has infiltrated the largest institutions in the world. The intended target of the meme has now become the messenger. This is the power of memetic marketing on display. Bitcoin is an idea whose time has come. Eventually everyone gets it.

You can tell where an industry is headed by who's willing to sit at the table. WSJ. Bloomberg. CNBC. Fox Business. FT. Reuters. Yahoo Finance. State Street, J.P. Morgan, Franklin Templeton, WisdomTree, Broadridge. That's who showed up to the @OndoFinance dinner our team produced in NYC this week. Tokenization isn't an experiment anymore. The room proved it. Long on Ondo. Long on Eden.

@100xJody Interviewing the president or a murderer or Oscar winning actor or a homeless person or someone who lost their entire family in a house fire isn’t hard? Sure ok 👍

It's laughable to me that so many people think reporting is a low-skill endeavor. Earning someone's trust, making them feel comfortable, getting them to share information they shouldn't, communicating clearly, pivoting on the spot — soft skills that are very hard to do well.

Jake Shane’s Vanity Fair #Oscar party interviews are going viral for all the wrong reasons. From awkward moments with Kris Jenner to calling an Oscar nominated film’s sick child “annoying” while talking over Julia Fox and Damson Idris, the chaos said it all: red carpet reporting is a craft, and not every influencer is a reporter. variety.com/2026/film/colu…

@ninabambysheva Good take and also probably why mainstream folks still don't get it. Architecture of financial markets just isn't that interesting. Cardinal sin of 99% crypto companies who cannot talk about their technology in outcomes/how day-to-day transactions change.

At this point, the crypto industry should just stop building for humans and focus on agents instead. It was never good at UX anyway (with a few exceptions)

The best comms executives are tired of bureaucracy and bullshit. They want to move fast, deliver real impact, and build — not manage process. That's why @RyanBrack just joined Eden as our SVP and employee No. 4. Ryan ran Meta's global privacy public affairs. He led comms at Google for products serving billions of users. He co-founded the NYC Mayor's Office of Tech and Innovation. He co-founded an AI media company. He could have gone anywhere. But instead he chose Eden. As Ryan puts it: "Reputation is infrastructure. In deep tech, it's also a competitive moat that determines who earns trust and who doesn't." The old PR model is changing. At Eden, we're building a firm that is AI-native, practitioner-led, and unbound by traditional playbooks. Welcome, Ryan. It's time to build.

Operating in stealth mode is almost always a mistake. Talk publicly about what you're building. You’ll build momentum, get real feedback, and someone will reach out with the other half of your idea you didn’t realize you were missing.

@nickgraynews Curious to hear how this tale ends. So many shady behaviors in our industry. It annoys me because it taints people who are decent operators genuinely trying to help good founder and companies scale.
