8 yıl önce @hosseeb ve ben yıpranmış bir SF barında uzun bir gece sohbeti yaptık, temelde akran terapisi "kripto ölü mü... Yine de bu VC işini yapmalı mıyız?" Anksiyetemi hâlâ hatırlıyorum. Kardeşim atlatıyor, güçleniyor, sadece daha fazla yara ve daha iyi tat alıyor. Dragonfly'ın yeni istihamı için büyük tebrikler

We just closed Dragonfly Fund IV at $650M. It's a big milestone, and yet, it’s a weird time to celebrate. Spirits are low, fear is extreme, and the gloom of a bear market has set in. But here's the thing: we raised almost every single Dragonfly fund into bear markets. Fund I we raised through the 2018 ICO winter, when almost nobody believed in this space anymore. Fund III we raised right before Luna collapsed. Those were brutal times to deploy capital. But they turned out to be our best vintages. Last week I caught a lot of heat for arguing that non-financial crypto has failed. I meant that. But the flip side of that argument is: financial crypto is exploding. Stablecoins are eating the world. DeFi has grown so big it's rivaling CeFi. Financial institutions around the world are racing to build out their crypto strategies. And prediction markets are becoming the most trusted source of truth on the internet. Fund IV is our biggest bet yet that the crypto revolution is still early in its exponential. If you look at our recent bets—Polymarket, Ethena, Rain, Mesh—the growth speaks for itself. Agentic payments, on-chain privacy, the tokenization of everything—crypto's surface area is about to explode, and we want to be backing the founders at the center of it. We've always believed that the most important work gets done when the noise dies down. We believe moment is now. In fact, we’re putting money on it. If you're building what comes next, @ us.
her ayıda aynı kaygı. Sanırım artık buna karşı az ya da çok bağışıkız. Eğer dürüstlükle inşa ediyorsan, Bear en iyi dosttur, tam da bu anda gelecekteki haksız avantajını kazanıyorsun
