Interest in companies and networks that are doing something that is uniquely enabled by crypto, what i call a v2 crypto business. That is, you're doing something that is leveraging the native properties of crypto and that could not be done without crypto.
Not interested in companies that simply 'put X on a blockchain'. Not interested in crypto tourists or wall st. refugees trying to bring their priors into crypto.
