We’re excited to announce our investment in Tholos, which is building the next generation of crypto-native financial infrastructure. Today most crypto-native organizations run their businesses on top of SAFE multi-sig wallets. Multi-sigs have become a mainstay of crypto - project treasuries, DAO’s, groups of friends all use multi-sigs to jointly store assets.

Decentralized governance has been a long-discussed topic – it aims at helping to prevent corruption, empowering a community to have a voice, and ensuring that a crypto network is run fairly and transparently.

Over the last few months Lattice has been building a position in $NOTE, the governance token of Notional. Notional has been at the forefront of the fixed-rate lending market, pushing the vertical forward and driving the next wave of DeFi adoption. We’re excited to share our thesis more broadly.

Lattice Capital is excited to announce our investment into DIMO, a web-3 enabled crypto network that will power the world’s machine-based data economy. We believe that DIMO has the potential to change how data is collected, used, and most importantly monetized in the increasingly internet connected world. The DIMO network is focusing its initial go to market plan on the massive $10T mobility market with a particular emphasis on electric vehicles which is expected to balloon over the next 10 years as OEMs rush to electrify their fleets.

How Layer3 Is Onboarding The Next Million DAO Contributors

According to Linda Xie, “a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is a group organized around a mission that coordinates through a shared set of rules enforced on a blockchain.” We strongly believe that DAOs will eventually change the way humans work. However, DAO’s face many challenges in their current form.

We're excited to announce that we've co-led a $2M round into xToken, alongside their existing investors. xToken is an on-chain asset management platform that offers passive and composable DEFi strategies. Their initial product focused on liquid staking derivatives of popular ERC20 tokens, but they've since expanded into Uniswap V3 LP strategies (and so much more!)
The Web3 Growth Playbook
December 13th, 2021
Interest in Web3 has exploded over the past twelve months. NBA superstars are paying six-figures for NFT's and proudly displaying them. OpenSea is doing more volume than Etsy. The fastest growing game in the world runs on Ethereum. While this surge in interest has driven new users into the space, usage of crypto products still dwarfs that of their predecessors.
How Hashflow used Project Galaxy to turbo-charge to $600M of trading volume

Growth in Web3 is a challenge; Web3 has no app stores, no targeted Facebook ads, no email marketing, no re-marketing, no affiliate marketing...yeah, you get it. The tools relied upon by Silicon Valley growth marketers over the past decade have largely evaporated in our industry, and we've been left with only a couple arrows in the quiver. Beyond meme contests and an active Twitter account, Web3 teams have relied mainly on token incentives for early adopters. Using tokens as an incentive, while successful in some instances, is more recently being called into question as it has trained parasitic behavior as users rush into projects with liquidity to earn tokens only to dump them and when the incentives dry up, say goodbye to those users.
