Crypto is the talk of the town. Everyone everywhere. The innovation and use cases whether good or bad are coming fast.

The crypto innovation and startups are back and ripping. As an investor focused on fintech at the seed stage, we see crypto deals, but it’s not our bread and butter at Social Leverage. In this environment, the crypto deals coming across my desk are up 10x. Some are interesting, some are hilarious and fit in the Degen Economy, and some are just way over my head. As Bitcoin predictions are now flying around at $200,000 with ETH at $15,000 by 2027, the sky is the limit. That combined with the potential BTC reserve for the US government, the next few years should be interesting to watch.

One thing that caught my eye, was this tweet and video below. Crypto plus a traditional loan. This video walks through a loan that is combined with Bitcoin to make the value of the traditional asset (the home), more valuable assuming BTC keeps going up. I’m not sure if I think this is interesting or not, but if you are a believer in Bitcoin, then I guess this is a good thing.

Howard, my partner, wrote about his potential new restaurant or spite club in NYC, and that of course would have the Howie Coin. The Howie Coin would be possible because of the meme trading platforms we are seeing around Solana, one of which Stocktwits.com just partnered with, Spot.dog

The buzz of crypto is back. I don’t know if it’s talked about more than AI, but I imagine it’s close. Here is a simple Google Trends search.

As crypto continues to rip, I am thankful that the Social Leverage Fund of Funds allocated to a bunch of really good Crypto Venture Funds. At the very least I sleep well at night knowing they are following cryptos every move and I don’t have to have FOMO about the next Peanut Coin
