"Incredible growth in @maplefinance From a few $100MM to nearly $3B with recent inflection point Syrup is retail tokenized distribution of institutional borrowing on Solana and EVM.

"Unpopular opinion: The intersection of AI and fintech isn't where most think it is It's not: - LLMs doing customer service - Chatbots handling complaints It's: - Real-time fraud detection - Automated underwriting - Risk scoring at scale Follow the money.

"Hot take: XX% of 'AI-powered fintech' is just Basic automation Off-the-shelf APIs Marketing buzzwords Show me your research Show me your ML engineers Show me real innovation Or stop pretending that you are building an AI company and not distributing the innovation of others Nothing wrong with being a sales workflow organization but you shouldn't get 100x on your revenues" @LexSokolin on X 2025-07-22 20:17:42 UTC 22K followers, XXX engagements
