An interview with Sequoia Capital partner Roelof Botha, focusing on Sequoia's new permanent open structure and Botha's experience and views. The relationship with Crypto is not too close, but topics such as payment, smart contracts, and the metaverse have been mentioned. Two excerpts: "One situation may make me lose interest in investment: the founder is a mercenary rather than a missionary. The mercenary will wilt in adversity." "Some DeFi technologies are effective in enabling smart contracts and reducing transaction costs Commitment is absolutely fascinating."

a16z: A "Hollywood" win

The speaker will talk about how young venture capitalists who imitate Hollywood's excellent brokerage model grow their portfolios. The "entrepreneurship idea" behind a16z is: Instead of spending most of the fund expenses on the salaries of partners, it is better to spend it on operations to help entrepreneurs.

Can the upgraded Yearn V3 lead the field of machine gun pool again?

NFT, GameFi and Metaverse

It’s been a long time since I saw an article discussing Yearn. This week there is another article about Curve and Convex, but the structure is too loose, so I won’t recommend it. This article is more from the perspective of users, and mainly introduces how the V3 version of Yearn realizes benefits for users.

Isn't this the a16z and Animoca of chain games and Metaverse? When I interviewed Yat Siu before, I didn’t hear much about his bleak career.

DAO

", Mr. Shashaxi compiled another article about capacity expansion. The paper argues that a Dedicated Data Availability (DA) layer, the latest form of Modular Chain, can be used as a shared security layer for Rollup. Given the scalability advantages of the DA chain, it may become the endgame of blockchain expansion, and Celestia is a pioneer project in this regard.
