"CryptoPunks is a better levered bet on Ethereum than Ethereum itself." Yat Siu (Yat Siu), co-founder of Animoca Brands ✈️ SuperAI 🇸🇬, on what retail should actually do in this market: "If it's your first time in crypto, hold a reasonable basket of the majors. Bitcoin, Ethereum, probably Solana. If you believe in digital, you should believe in that." "Overweight Bitcoin and Ethereum. It's volatile, but it's something you understand and it has the liquidity." "Punks are a cultural status item. It's like Picasso: if the French economy does wonderful, Picasso is the better bet. Picasso appreciates more than the GDP." "Then take a basket of things you love. You love the founder, you love the product. If you don't have passion, don't do it." "If you want to gamble because gambling is fun, do it. But realize it's a gamble. There's no rhyme or reason why a memecoin does well. There's a lot of funny stuff going on in the back that you don't see. That's not calculation. That's taking a bet." "Most tokens should be viewed like wine. There's utility, you can drink it because you enjoy it. But it also has value because you believe in it." Translation: this is a portfolio hierarchy, not a shill. Liquid majors as the base. Cultural assets as the leveraged layer, but only if you can afford it. Passion projects as the satellite. And memecoins are honestly labeled as entertainment, not strategy. Most retail portfolios are built in exactly the reverse order. Which layer is your portfolio actually overweight in?

Everyone talks about how Web3 will change the world. But the truth is: if you can’t make it work with the systems that already run the world TODAY, it doesn’t matter. Sometimes it feels like we "own" the Multiversᕽ blockchain. Not because we control it, but because every time we start researching a new module or flow, a new chain upgrade lands at the right moment, unlocking the exact functionality we need to build that idea. At Vero, we believe blockchain should stay invisible to the user. The real magic happens when it works silently in the background, even with old Web2 hardware, the kind that’s still required by law. In Romania, for example, every onsite sale needs a fiscal receipt. No exceptions. At the start of the year, we built a way for each point of sale to issue blockchain-connected fiscal receipts. But that meant one printer per station: expensive, inefficient, hard to scale. Now, after months of working, we’ve fixed that. Multiple POS stations, all connected to Web3, can now print on a single fiscal printer. Each receipt includes a unique station ID, a transaction hash, and is fully compliant with tax regulations. And we didn't stop there. We also built a full merchant module that handles both card and cash payments. VeroPay is now running as a SaaS infrastructure for any merchant, in any industry. With the latest MultiversX chain upgrades, this module is 100% live on mainnet. This is what we focus on at VeroPay: Not building DeFi tools that maybe 1% of Web3 users will ever try, but making sure blockchain works today, with the infrastructure that 99% of businesses already use. Maybe in 5 to 10 years everything will be on-chain, and that future is coming. But until then, the winning move is connecting invisible Web3 to the regulated Web2 systems already in place. That’s where real adoption begins. PS: Next up, we're working on a flow to export reports from explorer directly into major bookkeeping software format 👀
