something that's kind of depressing is that almost none of your ideas are really yours
most of my ideas are some weird mix of the views of thiel, taleb, and deutsch with a hint of brain damage, articulated much worse
humans really are just parrots 99% of the time
Startup categories that are very crowded right now:
1) Prediction markets (aggregators, long tail markets, verticalization, etc.)
2) Privacy - ZEC revitalizing a value proposition of privacy.
3) Stablecoin neobanks and agentic payments - tons of neobank players with real traction. Seemingly, hardly anyone with real traction in agentic payments..yet.
4) Onchain structured products (local stablecoin carry trade, high yield delta neutral using AI, private credit backed stablecoin)
