Law firms in the original dot com boom were heavily engaged in the Creative Capital model offering their services in part in exchange for equity. Whilst they got burnt in the crash, it's a practice that is still continued today. #CreativeCapital x.com/AutismCapital/status/1…

People are coming forward and sharing that law firm Fenwick & West, the law firm used by FTX/Alameda, was very predatory in their contracts. They tried to sneak 0.5% token allocations into their *engagement letters*. This is *HIGHLY IRREGULAR* and borderline unethical for big law

Everyone’s an investor. Every community’s an investor. Every creator’s an investor. Every creator community’s an investor. Thanks to regulatory & cultural shifts, we’re all playing the upside game now…and it’s leveling the playing field. Let’s dig in 🎾 medium.com/better-new-than-n…

Venture terminology, awash with idioms and acronyms, can appear daunting. However, it's simply a language to be learned. For the diligent, that does not take long. Then you can begin to negotiate your terms...

An email intro from 2013 that changed my life. Thanks @patrickc & @brian_armstrong! And the follow-up email making the ask to invest a month later:

We celebrate another win for the creative class and Creative Capital with @awilkinson who pivoted out of pure consulting with @metalab into investing with Tiny Capital... which now listed via a SPAC. Another creative class game changer. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Hindsight is easy, but this would have been a sweet Creative Capital deal with Metalab having been involved in Slack's early development. nextbigwhat.com/metalab-slac…

Have been working on the Creative Capital model with @fktry for a solid run now. Many learnings on how to negotiate deals w startups on a creative services for equity cash basis. First step is how you 'value' creativity as an asset to exchange in the first place...

Great thread on passing on an opportunity to take equity in @SlackHQ, $27B later. Many firm owners have been in this position with startup clients. In the moment, the decision (cash or equity/incentives) always seems binary. It’s not. Get both.
In 2013 I got a call from @stewart. His gaming startup, Glitch, had failed. He seemed gutted. They had burned through millions and laid off their entire staff. He had an idea he wanted us to help with. A last ditch effort to get his investors money back...

Creatives have all of the assets but none of the assets, all of the tools, but none of the jewels.

The best way to continue to fund the creative class is to build a global network, on creator-friendly terms, where exclusive content and community can grow and develop. And we're doing just that. bit.ly/2Dokbpc
