Notes from Pantera Blockchain Call

Companies highlighted:

  • Alchemy: AWS for Blockchain?
  • Offchain Labs: Layer 2 scaling solution for Eth, solid.
  • Veem: Payment solution using crypto underneath. Like Venmo.
  • Bakkt: Digital wallet solution.
  • Bitso: Over 1 million users, 15% of all assets going to Mexico.
  • Staked: Solution to build yield off of DeFi ecosystem.

Notes:

  • Are getting into NFTs as well, undisclosed investment.
  • 37% of crypto market is non-Bitcoin and non-Ethereum, up from 16%.
  • Why has gold not done better? Perhaps demand is being captured by BTC.
  • BTC at 233% for 11 years and has no correlation to other asset classes.
  • If 3.5M people hold BTC, price is $700,000… possible in 5-10 years?
  • China Ban is positive signal?

I shared this photo on BitClout and a couple of hours later it hit the global feed and Ani15 posted a painted reply to it.

Interesting to watch this weed harvester working to clean up Cannon Lake a bit.

Love this framing around time.

I’m having a blast playing and exploring POAP tokens. I’ve created a few for various events to experiment.
