It’s unconscionable that the city is now saying they have to delay critical construction for the Olympics. We don’t choose between rebuilding from the fires OR preparing for the Olympics—we do both. I have leaders from across the private sector begging to step in and help.

Home ownership has a financial aspect (flipping/Zillow Zestimates) and utility (living). Crypto is the same per @cdixon. “Tokens are essential to decentralized systems” and the current (bad) policy is that adding utility is what gets builders in trouble @a16zcrypto #Consensus2024
Want to understand crypto and still not getting it? @cdixon says start by understanding open source software. “Linux doesn’t have a CEO either”@a16zcrypto #Consensus2024

Bear markets are for building:
@blackbird launched in the bear to get ready for markets to run. This is better than the brands that launched in the bull and then gave up
@benleventhal @SamEwen @CoinDesk #Consensus2024
Most of your favorite restaurants are small and independent. @resy was @benleventhal’s previous company and it took the diner relationship away from the restaurant. @blackbird brings it back
