ImmutableX was the first chain we launched back in 2021. In 2024, we introduced Immutable zkEVM to give devs more flexibility - since then it's been adopted by hundreds of studios. Now, we're merging both into one unified chain. ✅ Unified DeFi primitives for trading ✅ Consolidated liquidity onto 1 chain ✅ Credit card payments/on-ramps via Checkout ✅ All unified with Passport

Here’s what’s gonna happen and you can bookmark this and call me a prophet later Blockchain is gonna blow up with stables, commerce, tokenized securities, RWAs, etc Most of it will be under the hood and invisible to its users What we think of as “crypto” - memecoins, creator coins, “governance tokens” - will be a sideshow that will never go away but will not meaningfully grow either because it’s retarded and bad both as a casino and as an investment NFTs will come back because they are dope but more as a collectible than an investment

I am excited to announce that I have joined BNB Chain as the Executive Director of Growth. In 2021, I joined the crypto industry when blockchains were congested. It was a time when a single transaction could cost thousands in USD value. I had the extreme pleasure of contributing to the go-to-market of one of the most successful scaling solutions of Ethereum. Fast forward to 2025, there are over 150 L2s, and many more L1s with magnitudes higher throughput than Ethereum. Yet, 99% of blockchain ecosystems launched in the past 24 months fail to bootstrap users or developers. The crypto industry is facing a new challenge – the challenge of discovery. Today, less than 10% of assets on-chain are activated. The truth is that crypto products struggle to reach retail users, and retail users often face challenges with liquidity discovery. How BNB Chain is solving the discovery problem better than others: Mass user base: With over 695M unique addresses and 2M+ daily active users, BNB Chain is the ideal distribution channel for innovations to reach mass adoption. Optimized for liquidity discovery: The BNB Chain ecosystem has had 619 BEPs and 20 hard forks in the past 6 years to minimize the cost of discovery: reducing latency by 24x, increasing throughput by 40x, and reducing fees by 300x. Developer support: This is where I am most excited. In this role, I will be focusing on creating programs and platforms to onboard early-stage projects and global talent to the BNB ecosystem, providing them with access to resources and the mass user base of the BNB Chain ecosystem. Drop me a DM if you are 1) interested in building on BNB Chain, 2) looking for job opportunities at BNB Chain Foundation, or BNB Chain ecosystem in general ✉️ Nuff talk today. We don’t talk the talk, we Build N Build 💛 @BNBCHAIN @heyibinance @cz_binance

Email going around that Shima Capital is winding down its fund and Yida is stepping down Yida has settled with the SEC and DOJ on two matters - 1) having fraudulently inflated his returns on prior investments in his investor pitch, and 2) personally benefitting from an investment discount that he did not disclose or share with investors in an SPV. I also believe there was a separate investor lawsuit against Shima for Yida’s alleged malfeasance, but I don’t know the status of that. Shima was the lead investor in my startup and they are one of the biggest reasons other than market conditions that we did not make it I’ll mince no words - Yida was a terrible partner Somehow Shima got the reputation as the “leading gaming fund” but he knew nothing about games and frankly had no interest in them During the raise, I repeatedly said that we were not committed to a token unless or until it made sense. But after we closed, it became clear that all Yida was interested in was a token launch as quick as possible, and he wasn’t very scrupulous about how we did it. All the advice he gave me was about how to be a better con man, basically - focus on your follower count, buy bots, short term narrative chasing, “token is the product”, “the game doesn’t matter”, quasi-bribery to get listed on exchanges, etc. I’m a very principled guy and have a reputation as above board that I worked hard for, so I ignored the bad advice and shady tactics which only ostracized us more from Yida. When we would launch big events or features to our community, instead of congratulations, I would get hassled about why we were doing anything gaming at all and not shilling the token instead. He saw the game merely as an excuse for a token, not as its driver. This constant battle was distracting and demoralizing for us. It added unbelievable stress to me personally despite the fact that we were executing at a higher level and faster pace than most in web3 at that time. When the shareholder lawsuit hit, the pressure became even more intense. I strongly suspect that Shima had already pre-sold their token allo pre-TGE to other investors and that the pressure we were getting was from those investors who wanted the token live so they could dump on us. They also shifted from venture investing to trading liquid - generally considered a major no-no in trad VC - in a desperate attempt to get a return on the fund so they could raise another one. As such, they had no reserves for portcos looking for extension funds or follow-on rounds. No one said this directly but I strongly believe Shima as our lead was a poison pill as other VCs came to distrust Yida, knew he had a significant token allocation, and believed he would sell at first opportunity because of the pressures on his fund. No one wants to invest just to get dumped on. Also, the fact that they wouldn’t contribute even a nickel to follow-on sent a bad signal - why won’t your lead invest? Well, they “aren’t deploying.” Hmm…. At least two of my other investors were willing to step up, but without Shima, I could not get interest in the rest of the round. The timing end ‘24/early ‘25 was also terrible. In our final month of operation, Yida tried to press me to launch a memecoin for the game on Pump as a last desperate play for capital. I told him that if we had even 6 mos of runway I would do it but that I could not launch a token in good conscience without enough runway to execute. He then told me we could do it through secret side wallets which I was unwilling to do. Thankfully our other investors who were all great sided with me on this and agreed/supported my decision not to do something desperate. All the other people I worked with at Shima were great and helpful and I feel sorry that they got dragged into a bad situation. I hope they land okay. All the other founders who had Shima on the cap table had a similar experience to ours, so I know we were far from alone. Good riddance to that guy.
