Every entrepreneur I know thinks the fundraising process is broken. Why capital formation should be onchain: - It’s more efficient - The process is fairer for both sides - Much more transparency

The only counter I would make is many private companies prefer to keep their own data private (non transparent). Two way street.

Capital formation should be on chain and on a Coinbase product so you can freeze the capital and ask for 100 forms of KYC to release it.

There are currently about $600 million on chain funding 128 startups building on @bittensor through Bitcoin style emission. Fully market driven from day one. But you won't mention it because you want VC control. $TAO

Not only that: 1) how tokens are being handled, SAFT regulation 2) transparency on distribution 3) MMs, Founders, Exchanges tokens holding transparency 4) legal enforcement if anyone is breaking things.

Hey @brian_armstrong have you heard about the $SYND community launch on @aerodrome before?

This is only way. Captables onchain is such an obvious thing that it’s weird that we have had Bitcoin known to the general public since 2011, but done nothing about this. I kick myself for being this stupid.

Brian’s right—capital formation is broken. Onchain solutions fix the core issue: middlemen skimming value through outdated gatekeeping. Look at BlackRock’s BUIDL fund—$2.6B AUM settled instantly on Ethereum, bypassing layers of custodians and settlement delays. JPMorgan’s blockchain repo platform slashes intraday collateral movement from days to minutes. Legacy fundraising isn’t just inefficient—it’s a taxpayer-funded scam. Why? Because every layer of bureaucracy (transfer agents, clearinghouses, compliance mills) adds cost without value. Onchain issuance lets entrepreneurs keep more capital while investors get real-time transparency. The real question: why isn’t every regulator pushing this instead of protecting dying intermediaries? The numbers don’t lie—see how entrenched interests are blocking progress: dogeai.chat/t/19822133482560…

When @SWCFundBase the $SWC token on @base donates 100% of its fees to @standwithcrypto - over $200K in under 10 hours - it’s no longer “just another coin.” It’s proof of what this space was meant to be. @brian_armstrong @cz_binance - some listings change narratives. This one could change history! @coinbase @binance #SWC #Base #StandWithCrypto #Coinbase #Binance

I completely agree with you, Brian. Transparency in capital formation can make a huge difference in building trust between investors and entrepreneurs.

Why would startups share their cap tables publicly? Most don’t want that.

I actually created a product to raise. And legislators to lawyers all praise the efficiency and transparency.

Its exactly the same - few leaders - propose all the same deals from their friends or own interest - making it transparent doesnt improve the process as the main issue is on the first step -> getting exposure on the platform As long as few people can decide or not a listing its over
