This is what a 530,000 IQ looks like. God damn
The dude saw a thing he thinks is garbage for his industry and STILL he made 600M of selling it to his industry 😂

As a founder, you sell some equity to a VC firm.
But the VC is an intermediary buyer!
- They buy your equity (= raw materials),
- they transform it into a portfolio (= packaged product)
- they "re-sell" it to their LPs (= final consumer)
- and they extract carried interest in the process (= added value)
Once you have this framework in mind, it becomes clear that Fundraising = Sales.
You're selling a home-made financial product: your startup equity. 🤯

Thanks to everyone who came to yesterday's workshop at @SolanaSkyline.
@e_obukhova, our Supermoon Co-Founder, broke down what actually gets investor attention. Sharp positioning. Clear problems. Honest metrics.
The room was full of founders ready to work on their story, and it showed.

5 signs you havent found PMF(Product Market Fit):
🪧1⃣ You describe your product differently everytime someone asks.
🪧2⃣ Your best customers are your friends.
🪧3⃣ You spend more time on the deck than the product
🪧4⃣ When someone cancels, you feel relief instead of loss
🪧5⃣ You have 47 features and zero opinions about what actually matters
3 or more of these? Lets Talk @supermoonxyz

She built one of crypto's most active founder hubs in NYC.
We sat down with @DrRebekkaRevel of @SolanaSkyline to talk about what founders actually need, when to pivot, and why the best ecosystems are built on collaboration, not competition.

60,000 SOC vacancies everyday. Security is drowning.
Hackers are operating at AI scale.
@zahidsharp and the team at @TryJutsu built @AgentSOC to solve this problem.
AI agents that handle investigations, triage alerts, and take action autonomously.
Last month: 10,000+ security alerts processed. A provisional patent filed. SOC operations running 24/7 at over 10x lower cost than a human team.
@zahidsharp "The cybersecurity fight has changed from human vs. human to AI vs. AI. SOCs must evolve."
They're raising a $10M Seed and looking for design partners.
This is the kind of company in our network.

Time for a mid week stir 🍯
Here is goes: The traditional accelerator model is broken. Not because the advice is bad. The structure is.
-Take 7-10% equity from a pre-revenue company
-Run everyone through the same 12-week program regardless of where they're at
-Charge admission fees on top of the equity
-"Demo day" is the actual product, not the startup's success
That's not "acceleration". That's a toll booth. We built Growth Engine at @supermoonxyz the other way. ↕️
-No big equity grabs
-No admission fees
-Timeline is based on your goals, not our calendar.
++We focus more in person
You're done when you've raised, found PMF, or grown. Not when 12 weeks are up. This is our outlook on it, what would your ideal model actually look like?

SUPERMOON — PARTNER OF CRECIMIENTO
We’re proud to announce our partnership with @supermoonxyz to support the startups within our community through their global network of programs, mentors, investors, connections, and events based in New York.
Supermoon is a prominent network of founders, builders, investors, and operators that runs a network-powered incubation and growth platform.
On the topic of Pitches, here are some tips:
Investors spent 2 minutes 24 seconds on average on it.
They aint gonna look through anything over 15+ slides.
These are the top parts:
# 1 TEAM - 46 seconds
(Does this group have any business building this specific thing?)
# 2 FINANCIALS - The most scrutinized section
(Does this person understand how money works, or did they just AI a spreadsheet the night before?)
Zero failed decks in DocSend's study had financials.
58% of successful ones did.
# 3 TRACTION - Where deals live or die
(Is there anything here that didn't come from the founder's mom?😂 or close friends)
If you've been spending your energy on the market size slide, the "vision" slide, the 3D animated logo or some other bullshit you're not going to convert anything buddy.
We run a Growth Engine at @supermoonxyz that among the many things it helps founders do, is figure out where their Pitch and Deck are going wrong.
If you have any doubts, we can help you out.
If you're raising capital in NYC, dont miss this workshop.
@e_obukhova (12 years VC, Supermoon co-founder) is breaking down exactly what captures investor attention: positioning, storytelling, outreach that actually gets responses.

At Growth Engine, we got mentors who you have read thousands of these decks.
They'll tell you exactly which of your slides is screwing you over.
(rarely the ones Founders think)

Your pitch deck isn’t bad.
Your understanding of what VCs actually care about is.
Say things like these on a VC pitch call, and you will “find out”🪓:
"We have no competition." 🙉
(What VCs hear: I’m about to get destroyed by someone who actually talked to customers)
"Our TAM is $500B." 🤓
(What VCs hear: I pulled the biggest number from Google)
"We just need 1% of the market." 📊
(What VCs hear: I have no GTM plan and users will magically appear)
"Monetization comes later." 💸
(What VCs hear: its 2026 and I still think we’re in 2021)
What's the worst thing you've said in a pitch that you now cringe at?🎙️
This is exactly why we built Growth Engine at @supermoonxyz. You'll practice your mock pitch with a VC who's been on the other side of the table, and they wont pull any punches. (Buckets of sweat guaranteed)
Most founders treat community like a nice-to-have. That's why they fail to scale.
Here's what 6 years of community ops taught me:
Early users who feel ownership become your best salespeople. They don't need incentives. They need problems to solve together.
Try this: invite 10 super invested users into your build process this week.
Ask them for input. Networking and growth all in one go.
