Thank you all for coming!
Great conversation with @thestudio_xyz! We talked about how I picked Multicoin, Dragonfly, and 1kx earlier, what I look for when backing founders, and what makes a team worth betting on. Always fun to look back on those early bets and share a few lessons along the way. Thanks for having me!
