Highest theoretical upside? Tokenization. But also highest degree of “we need to figure things out”.

Buying A Home Should Be Easy
Opendoor is trying to make it easier to buy a home. Kaz Nejatian just joined as CEO to help them succeed.
We sat down with Kaz to talk about his vision for Opendoor, the problem with copying the hedge fund model, how to build through economic downturns, and the importance of ambition and long-term thinking.

@arampell @eriktorenberg @nejatian
Yesterday, I did a podcast interview with @arampell where I literally said “Running a publicly traded company is hard if you care what the Wall Street Journal says about you. Luckily, I don’t.”
It took less than 24 hours for WSJ to prove me correct.

🚨 I'm launching an $OPEN podcast mini-series.
Goal is to do an episode a day over the next 2-3 wks with the people who matter most to the future of Opendoor.
Founders, leadership, investors, alumni.
I want to document what could go down as the greatest turnaround in business history:
- What's happening inside the company *right now*
- What the new CEO's first week has been like
- How long the turnaround will take
- Whether $OPEN can still disrupt the largest, undisrupted market in the U.S.
- Valuation going forward
First few interviews are booked.
Guest wish list: @nejatian @rabois @ericjackson @ericwu01 @shrisha @yang_guo @APompliano @justindross @ihat @SebastianSzturo @Tyler_Okland_MD @jeffye888 @gregw134
And yes, the bears are invited too: @MartinShkreli @gnoble79 @CitronResearch

So @nejatian left $300M on the table at Shopify to join @Opendoor as CEO.
The kicker, he is not paid a salary and entirely stock based comp.
Kaz sees some serious OPEN upside. 🚀

If $TSLA closes at $420.69 on the dot I will buy a new Tesla car today.

Elon Musk has just filed a Form 4 showing insider purchases of ~1.9M $TSLA shares on Sept 12 at prices between $371–$396, totaling ~$736M. The shares were acquired via the Elon Musk Revocable Trust. This marks his first insider buy since 2020

Big Opendoor news: we’ve appointed @nejatian as CEO. I’ve known Kaz for a decade - he’s incredible. The best tech companies succeed by having the right CEO in the seat. I believe Kaz is that leader. Thrilled.
Co-founders @rabois and @ericwu01 are returning to the Board! They helped recruit Kaz and will add the original founder energy that defines Opendoor. Excited to be working with them again.
For me this is full circle: Keith first introduced me to Opendoor in 2016. And from day one of working with Eric Wu, I saw his unrivaled obsession for customer-centric thinking. Having founders engaged at every stage of a company has been vital in my experience, so this news today is great. Band is now back together :)
Home ownership is one of the most powerful ideas in the world - and it’s still massively under-innovated and still one of the hardest to access. There's a huge opportunity for AI to reshape the company, and the market.
Finally, thank you to @pueokeffer and @GlennSolomon for your work over the last decade in Opendoor’s private company chapter and as a public company.

Let me be the first to welcome our incoming CEO @nejatian to Opendoor!
We share a core belief that technology is at its best when it's used to solve the world's most challenging and meaningful problems – like leveraging technology and AI to transform the $20 trillion residential real estate industry!
Thank you all for you passion and feedback and I can’t wait to see what we will build together. Let’s go!
