404 DAY was memorable all thanks to our committed Sei partners, core contributors, community members, Ordinals frens, and new projects. And I'm excited to support the rollout of the $10M Creator Fund.
The parallel EVM narrative was met with unparalleled enthusiasm!
@SeiNetwork
Very supportive of the meme coin as a GTM idea - you bring together a like minded community and then you cook a product that they all love. Easier than the other way around.
‘While NFTs on Bitcoin are cool, I (
@SDLerner
) think we do Bitcoin a favor by moving the trading of NFTs off the Bitcoin blockchain, leaving the block space for financial transactions. Trading Ordinals on Rootstock is much cheaper, faster and more secure’
Had the pleasure of connecting with many cool female crypto builders, moms + execs, and uni leaders during the Harvard Blockchain Conference last weekend. Feeling more bullish about this space cuz of that.

The race starts the moment a chain goes live or gets upgraded. This is when ecosystem dApps need to lean in HARD. Get all the protocol eng support that you need, work with the foundation commercial team strategically, and engage with end users aggressively.
Be that first key
In the 24 hours since Sovryn Dollar ($DLLR) launched:
🔅The DLLR/BTC trading pool has reached $3m in liquidity and currently providing ~140% APY
🔅Protocol revenue has increased by about 3X
🔅Total Zero borrowing has surpassed $10m

Stepping back into my corp outfit for a few hours at The Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. Always good to keep an eye on the state of institutional adoption and hear others vent about regulation…thanks to Boston Blockchain Association (BBA) for hosting.
My thoughts on Sei following the v2 launch:
Conviction in trading/investing is tricky. It straddles a fine line between striking it rich and holding to zero. Unless you are completely incompetent, forgetful, lucky, or brainwashed, true 100% conviction is a dangerous game and
Attention is all you need to start building a tangible product
Attention helps with jump start concept validating, feedback loops, and GTM
Building Attention without rushing into monetization ain’t easy. But so important

NFTs/Metaverse will be around but the interesting challenges (both legal and operational ones) that DAOs present will inevitably take center stage in the months to come.
This leaderboard will change quite a bit as the year progresses.

@rootstock_io
Which brings DeFi to Bitcoin
The main difference between Bitcoin and Ethereum is – Bitcoin is not programmable and Ethereum is.
Right? Right?
❌ Wrong.
Smart contract-based applications can be built on Bitcoin.
Here’s how.
🧵
To build a strong L1 eco, you have to be able to constantly attract and retain developers, builders, and users and it all comes down to two basic things - Incentives AND Culture. I don't believe there's another way around it. And you'd better be creative at doing that.
Q: Do you see the future of DeFi on Bitcoin, and if so, why?
I went with a long form answer but the truth is, it’s just simple math.
Total BTC Marketcap 683B
Total DeFi Value Locked 192B
Total BTC peg-ins < 11B
The upside is enormous.

GM. Thoughts on L1/L2 eco building -
If you are the ‘new kid on the block’, there are now so many ways to cleverly bootstrapping your eco. You can incentivize users aggressively to build a humongous TVL long before the mainnet launch, you can ship an addictive dApp to lure in a

Noticed some friends in this space sending vibes of exhaustion and anxiety, despite the huge amount of success they’ve already accomplished.
Take a deep breath and remind yourself the reason you were here in the first place - liberation, purposes, and fun.
With ETH spot ETF getting approved in the near future (most likely), we will be entering an unprecedented bullish era for crypto in the U.S.
This could be quite good, for the industry and for the politicians. Let’s do it.
currently experiencing this both personally (raising a 6mo boy plus a 3.5yo toddler), and professionally (growing a fabulous Sei V2 ecosystem). can confirm that it does take a village!
This is by far the most significant partnership we established this year. Cannot wait to see what we’re going to build together, with Rootstock/RIF, on

quick correction: the relationship between RIF and RBTC isn't that complicated. They are layer 3 / layer 2 (or sidechain) and are both building on Bitcoin.
