Marc Weinstein is a Partner at Mechanism Capital.
In this episode, we discuss why this time is and is not different, as it relates to the crypto bull run. Marc shares what keeps him up at night as an early stage venture investor but also as a retail trader. According to him, we are all retail traders! As one of the more relatable investors, he is able to break down a number of observations and hypotheses related to founders, memecoins, speculation, L2s, and inflated private market valuations this cycle.
