Birch Hill has raised a $4M seed round led by @multicoin, with participation from @paraficapital, @castleIslandvc and @nascent.
We’re building the regulated path for credit onchain, connecting U.S. credit to onchain capital.
Extremely excited to bring American real estate collateral onchain to @Morpho
The Birch Hill Groma Ecosystem Vault is live on @base, powered by @morpho.
Open access to USDC lending backed by @gromacorp's Boston and Providence apartment buildings, with NAV published onchain by @ChronicleLabs Proof of Asset.
Restrictions may apply.
Things I never want to do again:
- Connect wallet
- Lock, stake, deposit, claim
- Need more than a link to onboard frens
Give me tokens that abstract the product.

Thank you to @HesterPeirce and the @SECGov Crypto Task Force for taking the time to meet with us yesterday to learn about @BirchHill_io’s vault platform, our compliance & onboarding architecture, and how we are thinking about registration.
My estimation of value in internet tokens is not now, and has not been for some time, in sync with the markets.

The deal was the top section of a pair of unisocks in exchange for something cool of his choice in the future
Today he followed through with this custom @Uniswap x @MorphoLabs jacket 🔥

I literally think about California’s geography permanently. You don’t know how privileged you are. It’s a perfect Olympia with a giant bay, a massive agricultural valley, diverse climates, southern niches for cities, a Mediterranean climate, and a wine region. Absolutely goated.

A few hard to accept truths that I think the market can handle after the past couple years of performance:
1. Prices aren't cheap. The tokens down 80% aren't cheap. The things underperforming deserve to do so.
2. 80%+ people in this space are incompetent relative to their seniority in any other industry, and will be weeded out over time
3. Poor aggregate fund performance is a function of 1. a bad investable universe (tokens from 2018-2024) 2. bad fund managers
We need to accept that our industry isn't taken seriously because it historically hasn't deserved to be.
I'm optimistic about the future only because I think the excesses that needed to be shed after 2021 are only now finally starting to occur.
This is short-term painful and still may lead to most market participants' deaths that are still alive and kicking, but it's very likely necessary for "crypto" to succeed.
Apparently VCs are crashing out philosophical rants this Halloween.
Can’t think of anything less scary.
