We’re excited to announce that @meconemarkets will be joining @a16z @speedrun as part of the SR007 cohort. I’m also happy (and sad) to say that I’ll be leaving Stanford Law School to pursue this dream full time.
Mecone started from a core thesis: the financial system of the future will be built on blockchain rails with Perpetual Futures (“Perps”) as one of the primary tools for speculation and hedging. This future will lead to markets that are more open and global, markets where participants of every kind, retail and institutional alike, trade more of the world’s assets with less friction than ever before.
With this future in mind, we’re building the financial infrastructure to make everything tradeable.
Today, Perps only exist on a handful of assets — the biggest commodities, FX, public equities, crypto. But there are a myriad of highly attractive long-tail assets that Perps have failed to reach.
Mecone exists to change that.
We build continuously updating benchmarks for long-tail underlyings such as fine art, real estate, pre-IPO companies, macroeconomic indicators, and many more.
When @hugo_stack, @jaffarkeikei, and I first met, none of us imagined we’d start a company. But the prospect of making some of the global economy’s most valuable and illiquid assets tradeable by anyone, anywhere, anytime was too interesting of a challenge to pass up.
We’re working to list our indices on exchanges now! Join the waitlist and we’ll let you know the moment they go live. mecone.trade

Thank you @luca_skarlo and the Skarlo® team for whipping up an incredible website on such short notice. And, most importantly, we couldn't have done any of this without our families. Love you guys!
