The best financial products of the next decade will not call themselves crypto. Just good products, with the chain hidden underneath and your app in front. That is what Compass builds. The technology wins by disappearing. #onchainfinance #futureoffinance

Funding rounds aren't milestones. It shouldn't be your goal to raise a series A. It should be your goal not to need to.

People often want to ask me if their startup idea is good, as if my opinion means anything. I think 99% of ideas are good if the team can execute well. The problem is, 98% of teams fail at execution. So, no need to sell me your idea, show your execution.

What if your AI agent could research financial markets and help you act on what it finds? We've paired the @labs_compass MCP with @CambrianNetwork MCP to show how agents can use financial intelligence for onchain transactions. Search → analyze → execute. Demo 🧵

What does banking look like when the customer is an AI agent? We brought banks, builders & investors together to explore that at Banking the Agent Economy during Token 2049. Our takeaway: access to financial products and control over their use have to develop together.

Tokenized stocks are easy to issue. The hard part is making them usable. In this demo: list tokenized assets, buy one, hold it. Real, callable, inside the app. That's the layer @labs_compass builds. #tokenization #onchainfinance

Tokenized assets are reaching new audiences inside products people already use. Integrations with @ground_onchain, @labs_compass, @get_para and @lifiprotocol bring them to portfolio builders, developers and agents, fintech users, and capital on other chains. More on how integrations are scaling distribution: centrifuge.io/blog/tokenized…

My best career advice: At every job you should either learn or earn. Either is fine. Both is best. But if it's neither, quit.

"Add yield" looks like one line on a roadmap. Underneath it's a year: protocols, gas, signing, routing, eligibility, risk, maintenance. And the next product is the same climb again. That hidden work should be someone else's job. New on the blog 👇 #onchainfinance #fintech

There is no need to fear any problem you are working on. If you are working on it, then you are influencing the outcome. It's the problems you don't address that should concern you.

The first phase of onchain finance was issuance. The next phase is making this consumable by the platforms that serve billions of customers. @0xcafeli lays out the three-layer thesis for the future of onchain capital markets, and how we facilitate this shift at @labs_compass.
Tokenizing is not just about putting assets on blockchains. The big opportunity is when they become financial building blocks for lending, collateral, trading, and entirely new financial products. I wrote about the opportunity here.
