Slack is just so much worse than email. Call me a boomer, I’ll die on this hill.

People are capable of far more than they think, on far shorter timelines. Problems expand to fill the time you give them.

🙌 Expo is the best it's ever been, and it's about to get a lot better. We raised a Series B so we can go faster on the things that matter to you: faster builds, smoother native integrations, and the services to make end-to-end app development a delightful experience. There is a lot of work to do. This round led by @Georgian_io puts us in position to go do it!

After ten years in crypto, I’m starting something new. I’m building WeLikeSports.com with a small team of elite operators that I’ve been hoping to work with for years. On the surface, it’s a sports pool platform. But to me, it’s something else entirely. A small window into a possible future: one where money, games, and people are deeply and effortlessly intertwined. And a business model where the platform succeeds when the user succeeds. Where the ethical decision is also the economically rational decision. I’ve spent the last decade investing, trading, and helping teams build, mostly in B2B platforms. Along the way, I’ve met a lot of incredible founders and watched companies like @Morpho @Multisig and @GromaCorp grow from ideas into businesses. As an investor in both Luna and FTX, I’ve also seen a lot of things go terribly wrong. You learn a lot watching companies get built. But eventually, you get tired of cheerleading. For the last decade I’ve helped other people build their vision. Now I feel ready to build my own.

1/ Today we’re introducing WeLikeSports.com: a better way to run sports pools with friends. No rake, no commissioner, no waiting for payouts. Just set up a bracket, survivor, squares, or pick’em pool and you're ready to win.

Our round took 250 meetings over 3 months to raise $1.5M. If we gave up after 2 weeks, Wasp would have not existed today. Keep going as long as you feel your pitch is getting better and you're meeting better partners. The whole experience shaped us and made us better founders. Our full experience in a post below.

@shravvmehtaa if the fundraise takes longer than 2 weeks you probably weren’t ready. When meeting with a big fund, if you don’t get a term sheet within 2 meetings + a partner meeting they’re wasting your time If it’s a small fund or individual, it should be like 1-2 meetings

@alexisohanian @modretro I’m building @lecopterHQ to replace media rights in sports with a new financial model. We’re in private beta, raising our pre-seed round. Would be great to connect.

Founders: If you're OBSESSED with building GREAT things, I want to fund you at the earliest possible stage. It's a bonus if you're (re)building the video game hardware I grew up on. And you've still only seen the very beginning of @modretro

In office hours with one startup today we came up with a plan that would continue to work even if the model companies had eaten all the other markets. That's a first.
