December 16, 2025

Key Hightlights

  • Why growth is a strategic mindset, not just a marketing function
  • How to evaluate early-stage teams beyond hype
  • What real traction looks like in frontier crypto projects
  • The role of community and ambassadors in early growth
  • What investors respond to, and what shuts conversations down
  • How founders can think long-term in an industry built on volatility
