fwiw, the @ripcarsio playbook is extremely powerful for consumer products and only really possible on @MetaDAOProject: 1. raise the minimum viable amount from potential users 2. prove out the idea while integrating their feedback 3. once you’ve shown p/m fit raise more from investors to scale it the beauty here is that you invert the status quo: professional investors buy higher than your initial users who believed from day 0 there’s nothing quite like it
honored to be a part of this journey 🏎️ 🏎️ 🏎️ @allocateur and @AgentMechanic are the perfect founders for what rip cars is trying to achieve -- and i think they have a real shot at building this into a billion $ business full disclosure: i am totally addicted to the product

In the past year, we've helped 26 companies raise $46M from 150,000+ people on the internet. Trillions of dollars have been generated in private markets. Almost nobody got access. Our vision is to give EVERYONE access to phenomenal early-stage startups. @MetaDAOProject
At @ycombinator, we're excited to fund more crypto startups solving financial needs including AI capital raising, stablecoins, trading, and agents. Here's our latest crypto request for startups. Our next application deadline is Monday.

I moved back to New York to fund the next generation of app builders. After four months in SF and a lot of conversations with our customers, I’m convinced the best consumer app talent is on the East Coast (NYC / Miami). We primarily invest in consumer companies, so here I am. If you're building an app, I'd love to chat

We are putting $2,000,000 of our own capital into a fund to invest into app builders. Currently looking for a fund manager to help run this. Probably one of the coolest opportunities in the world for an investor to come in and reshape how venture capital works with us. If you think you're qualified, reach out to me or @metaproph3t

What if the people funding your app were also the people using it, sharing it, and helping it grow? That’s the idea behind raising with us on @MetaDAOProject. Apps in our portfolio have 10x'd their users and went on to raise VC capital. Could be you too

Some personal news: I recently joined MetaDAO. Working at Colosseum with Matty, Clay, Nate, and Max was a dream job. I learned a tremendous amount from each of them, and I will miss the team deeply. Colosseum represents the very best of our industry -- running the world’s largest hackathons, writing checks before ideas are fully formed, and building open-source tools so a thousand flowers may bloom. It’s been an honor to work with our founders, and I’m excited to keep supporting them from my new seat. Ever since I got oneshotted in 2023, I've thought about MetaDAO every single day -- with only a few notable exceptions. And along the way, I’ve tried to help. At Delphi, that meant writing slightly verbose research reports to spread the gospel. At Colosseum, it was STAMP, the Inaugural MetaDAO Owners Meeting, and [redacted]. Now, it’s time to go all in. I love this industry and am optimistic about what we will build. But we haven’t lived up to our own expectations. The blockchains work. And the stablecoins work. So where are all the generational businesses? It’s not that crypto is useless. It’s that too often, we reward launching tokens more than building lasting companies. I believe MetaDAO can help change that by giving founders a better way to raise money and build businesses on the internet. Fundraising is how we will bring decision markets to the world. Our ambition goes beyond helping founders raise money -- it’s to change how companies are run and, ultimately, how institutions and perhaps even AIs make decisions. For three years, I’ve believed in what MetaDAO could become. Now I get to help build it alongside Prophet, Kollan, and the rest of the team. Long live the Meta DAO

It's really cool that MetaDAO has thousands of investors. All over the world, there are people in our corner fighting for us 24/7. Founder intros. Feedback on product. Investor intros. Niche industry expertise. Basically anything I need as an operator to make MetaDAO a massive success, there's usually someone in our network who can help. This community ownership thing.. we might be onto something here
