Episode notes
INSIGHT

Private Overhang Broke Token Economics

  • Overhang from private pre-product valuations created token sell pressure on launch and crushed retail returns.
  • Grant argues fairer early access and accountability from teams will be required going forward.
ADVICE

Prefer Grassroots Product-Market Fit

  • Look for projects that build grassroots product-market fit before huge token issuance.
  • Prefer teams that back themselves and leave meat on the bone for retail access.
INSIGHT

Apps Over L1s For Next Cycle

  • Apps are likely to capture more upside than L1s next year because token value capture is challenged.
  • Mando expects payments, RWAs and tokenized revenue to outperform pure infrastructure.
