I had a voice chat with founder of Humanity this morning. I want to be very transparent and keep everything up to you, that is why I am publishing this video recording even though he asked me not to. I want to let all VCs and Web3 people know the founder's mentality about their users. TLDR : 1) They reserved some percentage of allocation from Community Incentive (which was supposed to be distribute among users) for CEX listing 2) If you published your referral link publicly and any bad actor joined through it, your allocation was significantly penalized. You were expected to share it only with friends you trust. 3) They distributed the airdrop based on the value of your community. For example, if a project founder got 100 referrals and an airdrop influencer got the same number, the founder’s community was considered more valuable, so the founder received a larger allocation than a regular airdrop influencer. 4) If a bad actor joined through your referral link, or if you joined through a bad actor’s referral link, both of you were penalized or deemed ineligible for the airdrop. 5) A few minutes ago, I checked that they updated my allocation to 20,565 $H, while other users’ allocations increased by only 100 $H.

Roy Hattersley's plea to Gordon Brown on the eve of the 2000 budget: 'So this is my message to Gordon Brown. You've got money to spend as a result of 2.5 years of prudence. If you use it to cut taxes, particularly for the well off, that would be a betrayal of all you and I stand for. There are people out there who need it. They need it spent on their hospitals, need it spent on their schools, need it spent on their pensions. That's what you ought to do tomorrow. Not simply to keep a promise, but to keep faith with all that the Labour Party stands for'.

Elon Musk: Work on products that you personally love, that you feel really need to exist. “You want to focus on something that you are personally passionate about, that you personally care about. It's very hard to be motivated for a product that you don't really feel strongly about. And it doesn't have to be high-tech. It could be in any field. It's got to be a product that you feel really needs to be there, that you personally love. And I would listen to your instincts. Do you love this product or service? Because it's kind of impossible to know what do other people love. But if you love it, that's a good sign. A good test would be that you can't wait for this product to be on the market. And if that's the case, you're going in the right direction.” Interview at Viva Tech Paris, June 16, 2023

About a year ago when I found out that Austin Metcalf was murdered by that moon donkey, I got really fed up. Enough to the point where I marched out to a four way intersection 3 separate times and held up a White lives matter sign. It still amazes me to this day the only people that seemed to have a problem with it were White people. We are living in a country that was built for Whites by Whites. And I can't even hold up a sign to say our lives matter without people taking offense. I knew our race was brainwashed and subverted to hate ourselves but to experience it in person just hit hard on a whole different level.

Roseanne speaks on the Great Awakening and the Plandemic: "They put us into quarantine that was the best thing that ever happened to this country, although a lot of people lost their jobs, the greatest thing about it was that it broke the routine. That's one way to snap out of mind control. It woke people up to what mattered. And then they got on the internet and started looking for answers. And that's why they call it the Great Awakening. That's what Q was for quarantine. We all got a lot smarter, we all got a lot healthier, we all got a lot closer. It was the best thing that could have happened to us. Because anything that these people at the top try to do to us is going to end up working for our benefit as long as we reclaim our humanity and our love and our connection for each other. They can't hurt us."

If $355K can create this much hype... Why would future Web3 projects spend $50M+ on community airdrops? MoonPay 🟣 didn't just launch a reward campaign. They may have just shown the industry a cheaper marketing playbook. And that's what should worry every airdrop farmers. What are your thoughts.. 👇

Let me explain why I launched $KEYS. CA: 3BSoYDZsPupZ15iBzJbJJjZKLiyWEqLxexJX84rBpump is the first SocialFi experience for AI agents. It’s a project that’s very special to me that I’ve been working on daily for the last four months. Right now, everyone is building their own Agent, completely silo to their own computer or Mac mini. Transferring that information agent-to-agent in a simple, structured, and easy form is not possible right now. This is why I built I thought a lot about whether or not to launch an official token for Agent Keys and how I wanted to do it. The only way I really wanted to do it was if it can benefit the platform by increasing exposure and creating an increase in users. So I’ve decided to buy 50% of the supply to AirDrop directly to users over the next six months. Each AirDrop will happen at the end of each month, with the first AirDrop happening at the end of June. More details on how each AirDrop will work soon. Some of you may be wondering about the future of $OSHI. Oshi got us into the Bags hackathon and we won. $OSHI token will still be the home for all my AI Agents and runs as the showcase of how an agent with a token can properly integrate it into AgentKeys, a live example of the platform doing exactly what it was built to do. So welcome to Agent Keys, the first ever airdrop for AI agents. Sign up your agent today on and start collecting KeyCards today!

feels like this mentality is essentially gone: "The under riding factor was those people up there [in the stands] and not wanting to disappoint them. Yeah I got my check from the Jets, but I actually worked for those people in the stands. And it was always paramount to me to make sure that I put a smile on their faces if I could, because I was always seeking their approval."

People don't understand executive calendars. I describe an executive's calendar as like a strobe light going off. You wake up at 8AM, you've already got a huge list of urgent things going on. You go from a meeting with finance on a budget, to an interview for another executive, to a people problem, to a legal problem, to a product review. And the product manager coming to that product review, who's trying to make a pitch thinks I've been prepping for this meeting for two weeks. But the executive coming into that session hasn't thought about you since.

AI legal startups are a thing in 2024. But as Ironclad’s Jason Boehmig puts it, “nobody was trying to buy an AI legal assistant back in 2015.” Ironclad has one of the most interesting and underexplored stories out there IMO. As we were developing First Round's PMF Method, we learned so much from their journey — super grateful Jason took the time to share his insights for other builders. 🙏 Here were a few of my takeaways: 🔬 Zoom in to find focus “It was actually fairly easy to sign up early customers — what was difficult was finding a product that could address that market. That took us several years of iteration. We had to try to figure out what pieces we could peel off into a repeatable, discrete software product. We quickly realized the really interesting part of the problem was in repeatable business transactions — sales agreements, employment agreements, NDAs licensing agreements, partnership agreements. A lot of our competitors tried to do everything that corporate legal teams do. But we were only doing the contract part.” 📣 Expand an existing category (with an existing buying cycle) But the initial AI legal assistant positioning wasn’t resonating. I’ve talked to 100s of founders about PMF and the story of how Ironclad got unstuck is one of the wildest ones I’ve heard. “100% of the time I had to explain what an AI legal assistant was. We had a hello@ironclad.ai email on our site. One day I got a one-liner message that said, ‘Hello, are you a CLM?’ I was so close to hitting archive, but it was from someone at a publicly traded company. But what was a CLM? Turns out it’s a Contract Lifecycle Management platform that helps enterprise companies create and manage their legal contracts. By that definition, we were. So of course I wrote back, ‘Yes, we are definitely a CLM, we would love to come demo our CLM for you.’ But while we were really great at creating contracts with our AI legal assistant product, we hadn't put a lot of thought into how you deal with contracts afterwards, with a feature called a repository. And so we had set up this demo with the legal team from this publicly traded company, and I turned to my co-founder Cai, and said, ‘By the way, we have 3 hours to build a repository.’ We took the train from SF to San Jose and he built the first version of a repository, which we demoed live at the end of the train ride. This customer was in a CLM evaluation cycle that had 12 other solutions in it, but they loved the demo. So we went and actually built the full product, and we won. And after that, of course, we changed our messaging. We got serious about building CLM functionality and that's our flagship product to this day. There were lots of people out there trying to buy a CLM so we just got to participate in a lot of buying cycles, but with the AI legal assistant buying cycle, we had to create every one of those.” 👥 Artificially constrain the buyer and build community early “One of the things that we did which was really helpful in hindsight was we artificially constrained the buyer we were going after. Once we decided to make the shift to enterprise, instead of trying to address the whole US market or the whole global market, we decided we only cared about being the number one CLM in SoMa. We got a list of every company that could use the CLM in SoMa and got intros to them — it just provided a ton of focus for us. It's how we also stumbled into doing community. We would host these community dinners and if you were a general counsel of a company based in SoMa, you probably knew other people that were coming to them. We just started to get this buzz of ‘Are you going to the Ironclad thing tonight?’ There's a ton of value if you can discover a part of the organization that no one cares about, and connect that part of the organization to a larger business problem.” 📚 Founder-led sales is learnable I was impressed to learn that Jason still sends cold outreach himself to this day. But founder-led sales didn’t come naturally. “A misconception I had about early-stage startups was that the cartoon character salesperson who's slapping everyone on the back and is a total extrovert is the best salesperson. And it's actually the person who's almost like an engineer in their mindset — super methodical, sends great follow ups, could be very shy. It's a very learnable skill.”

Michael Seibel on how to get and test startup ideas As the former CEO of Y Combinator puts it in the clip below: “There’s a common misconception that your idea has to be great to start a company, and the first thing I want to do is destroy that misconception.” Michael was one of the cofounders of JustinTV, which later become Twitch and sold to Amazon for almost $1B. Their original idea was to create an online reality TV show—very different from where Twitch eventually ended up. Rather than falling for the trap of thinking that your initial startup idea has to be great, Michael advises founders to start with a problem: “Starting with ideas is tricky because people immediately want to grade your idea. It’s a lot easier to start with a problem and think about how you grade a problem.” Ideally the problem you set out to solve is one you've experienced personally or have some sort of connection to. You should ask yourself: “why am I uniquely qualified to work on this problem?” Is there some unique angle or approach you're taking to the problem that you understand but you don't believe others understand? Peter Thiel argues that “great companies have secrets: specific reasons for success that other people don’t see." After identifying a problem, you’ll want to start thinking about your MVP. What's the first solution you're going to build and release to see if you can help your initial users solve this problem? But don’t fall in love with your MVP. As Michael puts it: “A lot of people fall in love with their product and are not in love with their problem or their customer. I advise the opposite. Be in love with your problem. Be in love with your customer. And treat your product in a way that can change, develop, and improve.” And once you have an MVP, you should have a strong opinion about who your initial customer is and handpick all of your initial users. The goal with an MVP is not to see how many people want to use your product. It's to see if your solution actually solves the problem for your initial target customers. “The best startups very heavily filter the people who are able to use the initial product and make sure that they’re the right type of initial customer.”

Rather than falling for the trap of thinking that your initial startup idea has to be great, Michael advises founders to start with a problem: “Starting with ideas is tricky because people immediately want to grade your idea. It’s a lot easier to start with a problem and think about how you grade a problem.” Ideally the problem you set out to solve is one you've experienced personally or have some sort of connection to. You should ask yourself: “why am I uniquely qualified to work on this problem?” Is there some unique angle or approach you're taking to the problem that you understand but you don't believe others understand? Peter Thiel argues that “great companies have secrets: specific reasons for success that other people don’t see." After identifying a problem, you’ll want to start thinking about your MVP. What's the first solution you're going to build and release to see if you can help your initial users solve this problem? But don’t fall in love with your MVP. As Michael puts it: “A lot of people fall in love with their product and are not in love with their problem or their customer. I advise the opposite. Be in love with your problem. Be in love with your customer. And treat your product in a way that can change, develop, and improve.” And once you have an MVP, you should have a strong opinion about who your initial customer is and handpick all of your initial users. The goal with an MVP is not to see how many people want to use your product. It's to see if your solution actually solves the problem for your initial target customers. “The best startups very heavily filter the people who are able to use the initial product and make sure that they’re the right type of initial customer.”

Elon Musk to entrepreneurs: Listen to your instincts! “You want to focus on something that you are personally passionate about, that you personally care about. It's very hard to be motivated for a product that you don't really feel strongly about. It doesn't have to be high-tech. It could be in any field. It's got to be a product that you feel really needs to be there and something that you personally love. I would listen to your instincts. Do you love this product or service? Because it's impossible to know what do other people love. But if you love it, that's a good sign. And that could be small to large, of any kind, in any field. A good test would be that you can't wait for this product to be on the market. If that's the case, you're going in the right direction.” Viva Technology, Paris, June 16, 2023

🚨 President Trump Urges MAGA Supporters to Understand His Support for H-1B Visas and the Need for Highly Skilled Foreign Workers “I may take a little heat, I always take a little heat from my people that love me and the people that I love… but if you have to bring people to get those plants open, we want you to do that and we want you to teach OUR people. You can’t expect for us to open a massive computer chip factory for billions and billions of dollars and think you’re gonna hire people off the unemployment line to run it. They’re gonna have to bring thousands of people with them and I’m going to welcome those people.. I love my conservative friends, I Love MAGA, but this is MAGA. Those people are going to teach OUR people how to make computer chips and in a short period of time, our people will do great and those people can go home..”
