So proud of Bea & the whole @PowerDada team. They launched the first collection ever of tokenized art made by artists on Ethereum back in 2017 and precede all of the current cryptoart platforms. I got to witness them develop this strategy while at @mattervc.

What happens when @nytimes pays attention to the growing counter-movement to VC hypergrowth culture?
We shall see!

I am one of that statistic, and couldn't be more proud to have been part of @mattervc. If the media industry had more @coreyfords in it, we'd be in solid shape. What he built is nothing short of remarkable. Hats off. "It's time to flare." - @coreyford link.medium.com/P69CDmp7aT
ALT “…And, in an industry with a terrible track record of diversity and inclusion, 50% of our Fund II founder CEOs are women and 40% are people of color.” from “It’s time to flare.” by Corey Ford.
