‘Firstly, a word of warning. If you are looking for a technical person who follows everything others have done and presents no new fresh ideas, you won't find that here. If you are looking for off the wall, seat of your pants, change the world ideas. Read on. I worked with Bob on a challenging e-commerce programme that looked to replace an ageing Oracle platform. What could have been a mundane cost saving only like-for-like approach, was something clever, innovative and original, that aimed to replace the old platform as needed, but provide additional benefits (outside of cost savings) in a revolutionary custom platform that would provide futurebility, cost control and an improved user experience. I wish I could describe the detail for you, but alas it was all too clever for me. Bob is a Steve Jobs type. You won't always know where he is going, but the destination you get to will exceed all your expectations. If your brave enough, employ him.’

What are the most common pitfalls when aligning your product vision with company strategy?
Although I certainly agree with this when your product matures and evolves. When starting something from scratch, you need to have a vision and it might take time to make other people see that vision too. People can't tell you what they don't know. Steve Jobs said: “Some people say, "Give the customers what they want." But that's not my approach. Our job is to figure out what they're going to want before they do. People don't know what they want until you show it to them. That's why I never rely on market research. Our task is to read things that are not yet on the page.”

What are the most common pitfalls when aligning your product vision with company strategy?
At some point, you'll hit a fork in the road. Should we go left, or right? You might want to go left, but you’re unsure: what if you're wrong? Circling around this question results in a lack of clarity for your team because everything revolves around going left or going right. What I do is this: 1. Look (again) at the data; what do users and customers tell you? 2. Look ahead of the data: Who are you hiring, and what do you tell people about your business? What's the vision? Anna Wintour is quoted as saying: "Data can't tell you everything, You can't develop an audience through data; it comes through the creative talent. If you speak with passion and authority, people will listen — and an audience will find you.” Now just pick and 🚀🌕

As Europe's MiCA regulation rolls out on December 30, stablecoin issuers will face new reserve requirements, holding 60% of assets within European banks. Tether.io CEO Paolo Ardoino has raised concerns about potential systemic risks, as banks typically lend out 90% of their reserves. Could this new regulation unintentionally increase exposure for the crypto industry if banks face instability?

Today Mountain Protocol announced their Series A funding round. We were proud to participate. Read on for our thesis on this opportunity. Having achieved clear product market fit we believe stablecoins are well on their way to becoming a core infrastructure for the payment systems of the future. We believe Mountain Protocol is positioned to dominate three areas of critical importance in the stablecoin issuance market: - Regulated: Mountain Protocol has been regulated and supervised by the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA) since July 2023, a globally respected regulator that has developed one of the most robust regulatory regimes for digital asset companies. - Yield-Bearing: Mountain Protocol is also unique in that it shares the yield it generates from its reserves with stablecoin (USDM) users. As of writing, USDM holders are receiving 5.00% APY in locations where Mountain Protocol is accessible. - Global Focus: We see some of the most meaningful real-world adoption of stablecoins in markets outside of the United States. This is an enormous business opportunity that Mountain Protocol is particularly prepared to execute on. Check the comments below for our full blog post on why we invested.

Launching a Token? Get the Right Support with Kairon Labs! In Episode 184 of Web3 with Sam Kamani, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jens Willemen, co-founder of Kairon Labs, live at Token2049. 🚀 Kairon Labs is a leading market maker, providing liquidity and strategic advice for token projects looking to launch successfully. With over six years of experience, they help projects navigate the complexities of TGEs, exchange listings, and market dynamics. Key Takeaways: - How Kairon Labs supports projects with personalized advice, liquidity provision, and a strong network of industry partners. - The current trends in the token launch space, including the rise of meme coins, liquidity concentration in major assets, and the increasing difficulty of getting listed on top-tier exchanges. - Jens’ contrarian view: Many projects rush to market before they are ready. Taking more time to mature can lead to long-term success. - Kairon Labs is growing fast and looking for top talent—traders, developers, and business developers.
