Feels like the markets are dead again, eh? Happy Labor Day to all the USA folks out there. There is tons happening in the DeFi market today and todays newsletter highlights a lot of my findings and some very quality opportunities.

I will have a different version of the newsletter coming out very, very soon. It will be my longer form, written thoughts. I will expand on my conversations with builders in the space and provide you with actionable information about what is coming up for each project (I speak to at least 1-2 projects/day), my portfolio updates & market thoughts, Q&As, and other high ROI opportunities I’m looking at.

Stay tuned for this very soon.
