Some takeaways from SBC:
- Lots of VCs want exposure to TON's ecosystem, but aren't seeing anything investable yet.
- VCs have either slowed investing pace to focus on supporting port co's or are investing earlier to get ahead of inflated valuations.
- There's still too much… x.com/i/web/status/1…— Kayla Phillips (@kay_phillips_)

For transparency, I've broken it off with Vitalik 💔
He is overly focused on "building" (whatever tf that even means?)
Token price is in the gutter and he's yapping about L2s and a roadmap while I'm left fighting all the fud
Not your gains, not your girlfriend ✌️
