Quick look at some HIP-4 frontends live on testnet. Are the UI wars about to begin?
Which one do you think captures mindshare once mainnet goes live? Or possibly one that’s not live yet?
In this era of vibe coding where anyone can code out a frontend, what would actually keep you using a frontend?
Low fees?
UX?
Potential for airdrop?
Referral fees?
What kind of incentives/ will keep you using the front end?

In middle school, with money earned performing magic shows I opened my first investment account.
At Stanford, captivated by the markets, I realized a paradigm shift was on the horizon.
Today, I am excited to announce our $5.7M raise, led by @novaholdings.
With the developments in AI, I knew I could no longer wait to start @vigillabs. At Vigil, we are building the engine to understand markets in realtime, designed for our own traders.

Some close friends recently asked why start @neutrl
Last year was brutal, very profitable. Hit the number I told my wife I would stop at. Took 3 months off to reset dopamine levels. After that I realised I needed more purpose again. I missed being part of a killer team.
@neutrl first round was 3x oversubbed. It was not spray the deck around and hope for the best. The round was not only done to raise money to add to the team, infra, audits, security reviews, custodians etc but really targeted to bring in angels and funds that would make the neutrl work once public. Otherwise it does not matter. Skin in the game from the right people does.
Investors needed to believe in the actual vision of bringing the highest asymmetric real trading yield onchain plus actually support. We are fortunate that our investors have stuck to their promise, often rare in this space and we do not take it for granted.
We turned down a few MM in unsolicited VC funding last week. We really do appreciate the interest and are very grateful.
Everyone who is a multi-cycle trencher knows this space is brutal, tiring, and takes over your whole life. Therefore you really need to be passionate in what you are building and stick to your vision. You need to be excited!
At Neutrl we will continue to only go down the tough route of bringing in any new investors - that understand the project, will use the product themselves, or actually strategically makes sense for all future users once live.
We see alot of great projects make mistakes due to bad intial terms and deals with investors. Concentrated bets on one or two investors. This has a bigger knock on effect to their smaller users and retail once they get access to the product or a token TGEs. There is very little retail bid at the moment and this only further lowers the chance of success for the project from the outset. I salute alot of builders who keep fighting in these tough times.
To really try and be successful long term Neutrl will go down the more challenging route, or to be really honest it is a better use of our time trading PA.
Happy to forgo easy capital to always try and get the right capital.
