Being right about a technology ≠ making money from it.
People who bought Amazon at the peak of the Dotcom Bubble waited 10 years to break even. Cisco buyers waited 24.
Timing is the variable most investors underweight and most founders under-plan for.

Fund III thank-you gifts are out the door – packed with care, craft, and a little New Mexico heat.
Pica insisted on modeling. The humans handled the tape guns.
Lots of boxes. Even more gratitude.

In venture, we track financial runway with precision.
But there’s another reserve just as vital: psychological runway.

We are heartbroken by the passing of Peter Sinclair, co-founder & CEO of @beatBread, and one of our founders.
Peter was a visionary who championed a more equitable future for artists. His impact will be felt for years. Our thoughts are with his family and team.

Fund III is closed: $93.33M for @Deciens.
All threes. Same strategy: invest early, go long duration, back what actually works.
Financial services is far from finished. In many ways, it’s just beginning.
Grateful to build with @sachdevi, Vishal Rana the team. Onward.

Fund III is officially closed: $93.33M raised to keep backing high-conviction founders transforming financial services.
Three might just be our lucky number, but this milestone is the result of a focused strategy and incredible partnerships from day one.

Nothing beats team time in a teammate’s hometown.
Our Boston offsite had it all: strategy sessions, new team photos, craft projects, and a home-cooked dinner with @sachdevi's family.

We’ve seen this cycle too many times:
🚨 The crowd chases the "heat"
🧲 Capital concentrates
📉 Discipline fades
💥 Hype crashes, the music stops
It doesn’t just burn capital – it sidelines great companies.

Climate risk isn’t just an environmental issue – it’s a financial one.
Insurance is retreating. Mortgage risk is climbing. And the cracks are widening.
This #EarthDay, we explore what happens when risk gets mispriced for too long:

Forbes just confirmed what we already know – @TrueLinkFin is making a real impact. Congrats to the team for earning a spot on the Fintech 50 list and for continuing to create financial solutions that change lives. Proud to be a part of the journey.
Our tenth annual #Fintech50 list highlights businesses that continue to grow rapidly and adapt even as industry valuations and investment in private fintechs remain depressed.

Back from our offsite in Palm Springs, recharged and ready for 2025. As a remote team, these in-person moments are invaluable – and this time, we had mini-me Lego figures to commemorate the week. Can you spot the resemblance?

What's the right number of portfolio companies for an early-stage venture fund?
Conviction and the N are in theory correlated, i.e. the more you believe in yourself, the fewer companies you should invest in.
My friend @dkimerling joined me for an episode of Money Moves to share how he builds conviction and runs a highly concentrated portfolio at @Deciens, his fintech focused venture firm.
In addition to his journey with Deciens, where he's raised and invested $100M , we talk about his experiences founding and raising venture for Standard Treasury, his fintech company that he eventually sold to @SiliconVlyBank.
Tons of hard-earned wisdom in this episode, full links below:
