A16Z’s ‘State of Crypto’ A rehash of bad crypto market pitches (amycastor.com)

I read through the whole deck, end to end. This `state of crypto` was a very professionally put together list of key words with very nicely designed graphics.


That is damning with faint praise, well done.


It was either “Barbarians at the Gate” or “The First $20 Million is Always the Hardest” where I first saw the term “unimaginative broker”. The point is that they are not reporting on a grand vision for humanity; they are reporting on where the money is going, and maybe a little bit about why. And also, this is a marketing pitch. That’s why it’s been made public in a way that makes it seem like some super-secret investment strategy leak.
