I guess it should not be a surprise that Founders have lots of challenges working with developers. Challenges I started by asking the founders in the room to tell me some of the challenges they have working with developers.

It was actually my co-founder Will Harvey who taught me to present this data in the simple format weve discussed in this post. But where do those ideas come from in the first place?

While ERC-20 is designed for tracking the balances of one type of fungible tokens, ERC-1155 allows a single contract to track the balance of a very large number of types of tokens, fungible or non-fungible [a fungible token is something that is mutually interchangeable with another identical item.

Great content again in September that meets at the intersection of startups, technology, product and being a Startup CTO.

One of the things I do as a founder of a later stage startup is to meet with early stage entrepreneurs to help them get their companies going. Nine times out of ten, the meeting ends with them asking me for introductions to VCs. Inevitably, the excuses begin: I need to hire people to build the product. and Google. No legal muck.

Some startups fail because the founders cant have this conversation - they either blow up when they try, or they fail to change because they are afraid of conflict. Although I wish I could take credit for these pivots, the reality is that they were not caused by my singular insight or that of my other co-founders.
