In 2021, we saw unprecedented growth in the crypto industry across MENA. At @rainfinancial, we did our part in providing high quality access to crypto for 200k approved customers. We have so many achievements from last year to be proud of.
I'm a big fan of KP and the work they are doing in the world. Big congratulations to the team 👏 and proud to be in the portfolio

For more than 50 years, Kleiner Perkins has partnered with founders at moments of inflection. AI is reshaping every industry from the ground up, faster than anything we've seen before. This is the moment to build.
Today, we're proud to announce KP22, our twenty-second venture fund: $1 billion to back early-stage companies, alongside $2.5 billion in growth funds to back high-inflection, category-defining businesses.
A moment like this is where the most enduring companies take root. Deep founder relationships and hands-on support matter more than ever, and we believe in lean investment and portfolio operating teams that work on founder time to deliver exactly that.
We're so grateful to the founders and LPs who have trusted us over the years. We couldn't be more excited to partner with the next generation of history-making companies.

Really proud to be a part of the KP portfolio, under the leadership of @mamoonha, @ilyaf, and team. This is a massive raise, and I can only imagine these funds will bring about ripples of positive change that will be felt globally. Congratulations @kleinerperkins 👏🏼

Today @kleinerperkins is announcing KP21 an $825M fund to back early stage companies and KP Select III, a $1.2 billion fund to back high inflection investments.
There hasn't been a better time to start a company and the AI wave may be the biggest yet - bigger than the Internet, Mobile and Cloud combined.
Let's all Rise with the AI!

We wanted to take some time today to clarify a security incident that we haven't been able to fully comment on yet, due to an ongoing investigation.
At the time of the incident, we acted swiftly, we protected our customers, and we upheld our commitment to keep customer funds 1:1 with reserves. We have since taken extreme measures to further secure our platform against bad actors.
At Rain, we believe protecting customer funds is our single biggest responsibility. We will continue to uphold that responsibility.

The world is a mess right now. I have to believe that proper accounting would at least help things. Giving anyone the right to create money inevitably leads down one path…
I have been cynical about supporting the idea of a metaverse, despite having read the original novel(Snowcrash) long ago and being active on the internet. That being said, hearing Zuck say that the human experience is a "physical experience" is reassuring that this tech is being designed thoughtfully teapawt.net/lexfridman/status/1707…
Here's my conversation with Mark Zuckerberg, his 3rd time on the podcast, but this time we talked in the Metaverse as photorealistic avatars. This was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. It really felt like we were talking in-person, but we were miles apart 🤯 It's hard to put into words how awesome this was for someone like me who values the intimacy of in-person conversation. It gave me a glimpse of an exciting future with many new possibilities and fascinating questions about the nature of reality and human connection ❤

Since I am trying to usher in a new era of global, decentralized accounting protocols, maybe I should brand myself as a New Age Accounting Advocate

I'm loving the creativity that I'm seeing this year in ad campaigns that are sharing bitcoin/crypto's core mission: to create a more fair and honest monetary system. The latest example being @StellarOrg 's ad with @idriselba.

Definitely going through an intellectual renaissance right now. I have left so many topics remain dormant for some time.

I feel like I’m a writer and an athlete before everything else.
Everything I do involves writing well. Comms, strategy, preparing to speak, everything.
To work as much as I do, your body has to perform.

“We are not tourists, we are travellers. What’s the difference? A tourist is someone who thinks about home the moment they arrive. Whereas a traveler might not come back at all.” - The Sheltering Sky(1990)

Everyone asks “Where are you from?” I usually answer with “New York and Dubai”, but the real answer is the world. I am constantly intrigued by all of the cultures of the world, especially eastern cultures.
