We were born for times like this.
We’ve welcomed new allies to our movement over the past weeks – resulting in a surge in daily active addresses, legions of new social media followers, and many fresh partnership discussions.
The stats:
• 300% surge in daily active addresses
• @pixels_online hit 100 K DAU
• Ronin wallet MAU up 67% in November, jumping to 267K from 160K in October
We’d like to introduce you to the Ronin Effect 👇

At a conference in Berlin today and many of the European VCs are complaining that local LP capital has dried up so they are thinking about raising in the US.
Thing is…US based VCs are saying the exact same thing 🙃
So many awesome
conversations and humble founders at the the tech.eu conference. Thanks @robinwauters ! – at Brussels, Belgium

With founders statistically more likely to encounter personal mental stress, breakdown, challenges etc., managing 'mental fitness' is critical.
A huge thank you to @hellochowders for a very special Founder Mental Health session with the class 👏🏻

It was a crowning achievement for @MissPiggy and I to be asked to attend the #CoronationConcert for King Charles III! Thanks to the Royal Family for having us and apologies to our friend @hughbon for interrupting his hosting gig.

Another reminder to spinout founders - past, present and potential - to please please write into the UK government review with your experience and what you'd like to see change.
You have to do it now.
👨🎓It's been a big last week for UK spinouts:
Oxford researchers published research on how TTO equity ownership affect spinouts (hint: no good)
Next, UK TTOs released a guide to university spinout deal terms ten-u.org/news/the-usit-guid…
🤨What do we learn from these?

So lovely having visitors at @Techstars London! Today we had @leedsbiz of @CUBoulder hear me rave about why the U.K. is a great place to be a founder (I’m not biased, ahem). Thanks for coming.
