  • It looks like mohammed ahmed is out here dropping wisdom again. 👀 🧙♂️ "Hot take: If your pitch deck has more tokenomics slides than customer problem statements, you might be building a solution in search of a problem." Prioritize PMF (product market-fit) ✅ A token is not a business model ✅ Token = Tool ✅ "Number go up" is not PMF (unfortunately) ✅ 🫡 Check out the full post below! . . . . . . . PS We've shared a link in the comments to a brief history of 'number go up' culture. (Just for funsies 😁)

    A fascinating pattern I've noticed in Web3/crypto over the past year (prob true of the last few cycles): Step 1: Raise millions in seed funding Step 2: ??? Step 3: "Oh right, we should probably figure out what problem we're solving" Step 4: Launch a token to distract from Step 2 It's like watching someone buy all the ingredients for a Michelin-star restaurant before deciding what cuisine they want to serve. Or better yet, deciding they'll figure out the menu after they've already hired the staff and rented the space. Here's the thing: PMF (product-market fit) isn't just a checkbox you tick after raising capital. It's not something you can retroactively create with a shiny whitepaper and some tokenomics. The irony? The same founders who preach about "decentralization" and "democratizing finance" often can't explain their product to anyone outside the Discord server. Hot take: If your pitch deck has more tokenomics slides than customer problem statements, you might be building a solution in search of a problem. Remember: A token is not a business model. It's a tool. And tools are only valuable when they solve actual problems for actual users. #crypto #startups #web3 #venturecapital #productmanagement P.S. And no, "number go up" is not product-market fit. Though I admit it's a compelling temporary substitute... until it isn't. 📉

    Semi-unpopular opinion(?): Most technical founders I work with are brilliant at building products but quite often, not the best at building teams. Look, I get it. You can architect complex systems in your sleep. But if you think 'culture' is just having kombucha on tap and free meals.. we need to talk. Been helping early-stage startups build their teams for years now, and here's one thing I've learned: The same founders who obsess over technical architecture often treat hiring like it's an afterthought. Your team isn't something you can just import. Building a solid team takes the same care and architecture as building your product. #recruiting #staffing #ai #web3 #linkedinvoices

    We were joined by mohammed ahmed, Co-founder of Accelera Talent, for the Attracting Talent for Founders workshop at web3 Growth Camp 3! Here are some key takeaways to build a winning team: 🔸 Your first 10 hires define your company. Each hire carries significant weight, so focus on people who embody ownership and align with your vision. 🔸 Craft your startup story. A compelling narrative about your mission, vision, culture, and goals is critical to attract top talent and inspire them to join you. 🔸 Define your values and competencies. Identify 3-5 qualities that every hire must have to ensure alignment with your company’s culture and needs. 🔸 Start with contractors. Test contractors before transitioning them to full-time roles to minimize risks and optimize fit. 🔸 Be transparent and flexible with offers. If you can’t match a high salary, offer equity or tokens to incentivize long-term commitment. 🔸 Don’t rush hiring decisions. Use a structured interview process to assess for both technical skills and cultural fit to avoid costly bad hires. 🔸 Personal networks are gold. Leverage hackathons, ecosystem events, and your network to find passionate Web3 talent. Follow us for more actionable insights from web3 Growth Camp 3! 🚀 #web3accelerator #web3founders #web3growthcamp
