In peak DeFi Summer, @kain said something like:
“7-digit yields aren’t crazy. The market loves risk. If you could farm massive yield with leverage daily, people would trade it.”
And after doing $65B+ in notional on @cardinal_labs testnet in 7 days, I think he was right.

The idea that you have to accept worse execution on-chain will be a thing of the past. This is a major step in the right direction.

Apparently, we can fit 3.5×* as many VMs at once on the same server, and we're just not doing it.
It's dumb, honestly: VMs waste RAM caching the same software as each other, which almost nobody deduplicates.
So I did, and cut disk usage ~10× while I was at it. Here's how:

Oxford is one of the most inspiring places on earth.
If HomeDAO existed while I was an undergrad, I would've applied in a heartbeat.
If you want to build the future, apply.

Live in Oxford, with handpicked builders, and get the best support for reach and financing.
If you're building and looking for a lift in Europe, the new cohort is open.

people often ask where we started & what the early days were like, mistakes we made, lessons we learned, etc.
truthfully, we wouldn't be where we are today without being part of HomeDAO
every founder knows the struggle of building a startup alone - HomeDAO is the antithesis of that.
when you're part of a real house with real mentors (and not to mention free catering, funding and everything in between), the journey becomes immensely more rewarding.
it would be unfair for myself & my cofounders to not give thanks to the biggest needle-moving community we've ever been a part of. HomeDAO is so much more than an accelerator.
forever bullish on HomeDAO.
🤝 Paid partnership
Are you haunted by the vastness of eternity?
Apply to HomeDAO cohort 3.

Piece by piece the $BTC ecosystem is coming together.
@ZestProtocol is building one of the most important blocks in that stack. A place where you can get yield on your BTC without compromising on security guarantees.
Proud of you @TychoOnnasch
Lending markets are the foundation of the Bitcoin financial system.
@TimDraper backed Zest Protocol because the team is building toward that.
This is so overpowered it’s not fair.

From the first time I met @jackchong_jc, I knew he was going to win. Every time we meet, that conviction gets stronger.
Congrats on the raise. From $0 to $3B TPV in 12 months is incredible. I can’t wait to see where that number is 12 months from now.
We’ve raised $8.1M to accelerate our mission of building a global network for modern financial institutions.
These rounds were led by @galaxyhq, @almadaventures, and @hiFramework Ventures, alongside leading crypto investors.

New Anglofuturism episode: Oxford's startup monastery
We visited HomeDAO: a newly-founded, über-competitive and highly successful start-up accelerator. If there is to be a British PayPal mafia then it is quite likely that it will emerge from this hacker house in Oxford.
Part 1 is out today. Calum and I talked to Josh Lavorini, a HomeDAO co-founder, about talent identification, taste, Oxford, the Coase theorem, British unicorns, the shortcomings of Old Street, and plenty more.
Listen via anglofuturism dot c o or your usual podcast app.
