As barriers to build hit zero, distribution becomes the only moat. Hackathons become competitive agentic collaboration where winning projects gain enough velocity and funding to be autonomously funneled into AWS, NVIDIA, Microsoft... startup programs.

We are in the singularity. They have hit recursive loops.

Generic sales workflow: Outreach -> conversation-> call -> proposal -> deal closed. Everything apart from the call should be automated. Sales nav-> clay -> instantly-> clawd bot replies-> call (granola records)-> proposal and follow up (claude project)-> send proposal and follow up (clawd bot)-> send invoice (clawd bot) / AI -> K \ Good AE's 10x productivity average ones become bad

Hubspot will be obselete by EOY. -> Static CRM (they need dynamic ontology) -> Very expensive In 30 mins, clawdbot + claude code, can create a dynamic CRM that is conscious of every detail of each deal past and future. It is an AI BDR drafting emails, sourcing leads and reminding you to follow up.

If you want to give clawdbot all your emails but no direct access you can export your emails via takeout dot google dot com This saved me a lot of time

The clawdbot effect

Static tools like Hubspot or traditional CRMs can be replaced in a day of vibecoding with Claude. They are stone age tech, GTM needs a big time upgrade, even Clay feels like 10% of what LLMs could currently achieve. GTM needs dynamic ontology.

Alex Finn on ClawdBot " I truly, for the first time in my life, see the path to a one person billion dollar business. I do not need employees anymore. This is my employee. This is better than human employees. It can work twenty four seven. I am a solopreneur with zero employees, and I feel like I'm capable of competing with anybody there is. But why does this make me so nervous? I think people are in danger. I really mean that. I thought this was ten, fifteen years away. This is available now. This can easily start replacing people now. I think a big portion of the global workforce has been completely eliminated by this. And when people start getting their hands on this, when businesses start getting their hands on this, when you start getting your hands on this, it's going to change. This came out, like, three weeks ago. I think 99.9% of people have no idea this exists. I think 99.9% of people never thought something like this would exist in their lifetime, and it is available now. And when managers when companies, when anyone starts getting their hands on this, I think they're gonna start questioning, why do we have a paralegal? Why do we have a lawyer? Why do we have junior level roles? Why do I have an executive assistant? Why do I have a secretary? I think this is actually going to have a monstrous impact on the world. And we really aren't prepared for it. I don't think we have the system in place. I don't think we have the help in place. I think this is going to hit the world like a hurricane, and no one is prepared for it. And that makes me really nervous. But that's the thing about innovation. And it's been this way since day one, since the world started. You cannot stop innovation. It is the most unstoppable force in the entire world. When the industrial revolution happened and jobs are being eliminated and people were getting pissed off at machines, they tried breaking them. They charged them with hammers. They tried stopping companies from using machines. It didn't matter. You cannot stop innovation no matter how much you try. So there are two ways to look at this. You can try to stop it. You can say this is bad for humanity. You can say, hey. We can't do this. You're going to lose. There's no way to stop it. So the only other way to handle this is to embrace it, to use it, to get the benefits out of it, to improve your life with it. Will there be disruption? Yes. We are not prepared for this. This is the fastest moving technology of all time, and we are not prepared for it. We will go through a period of turmoil. We will go through a period of disruption, but we have no options. So you can either roll over and die, or you can embrace it beyond the cutting edge and use it. And I think you should be on the cutting edge."

The biggest problem with the UK is that it's cool to be negative

The fastest way to 1 million is not the fastest way to 100 million. Getting to 1 million a year in the fastest way possible would be learning a high income skill (ghostwriting for founders, cold outreach) as fast as possible and starting your own agency. 10 clients × 10k a month. Could manage this all with 1-2 employees max. But scaling this to 100 million would be impossible. The fastest way to 100 million is probably taking a string of jobs, prioritising skills and surrounding yourself with killers. Slowly building an idea of the team you want, keep getting paid to learn about problems you would have to fix in your own business. Speaking to the top 100 people in your industry, understanding their problems deeply. Picking the biggest problem, raising, poaching every killer you have met on the journey. Giving it a shot.

Not banking with Revolut is like charging down a tank with a sword on horse back. Revolut is the worlds best bank. (switched last year) - Elite UI/UX - Highest interest rates (no idea how) - Best exchange rates - Points that rival amex (in the uk) - Ultra arrives in the worlds nicest box. NatWest, HSBC... traditional UK banks feel prehistoric compared to Revolut. Poor interest rates and horrific UI/UX. Monzo feels like a kiddies bank. Chase UK is good, but less competitive interest rates, although godly customer support- 3 rings and a human picks up. Would like to see Revolut launch a Credit Card that competes with Amex without such ridiculous fees.

I expect 30%+ of crypto to die. These are projects that are token price reliant, zero revenue, zero innovation. BTC volatility has reduced since early days, good for institutions, bad for degens. As degens continue to leave and tradfi steps in with a narrow focus on blue chip crypto, stablecoins, AI and RWA's, everything else becomes PvP. How many people work for an L1 or L2 and don't actually use the chain daily? You need innovation, you need hackathons, you need new products. This is a much needed purge. A lot of companies provide zero value in the crypto space. The high signal individuals will pivot and do very well switching to firms that can cater to traditional markets. Institutional roles will become the new thing. The few unicorns who can juggle tradfi and crypto will be paid well. Crypto was never meant to be in the spotlight for long. If it does its job correctly it isn't even talked about, its just the infra to enable transactions, ai transactions, a store of value, an escape from governmental control. The tech should disappear. No one cares and no one should care. It should just work. This makes me bullish crypto and reminds me of the .com purge. Short term bearish, even blue chip crypto. Long term ultra bullish on blue chips x trafi crypto merge.

Going to uni while working full-time in your target industry makes the experience closer to worthwhile. The effort required to juggle both becomes a meaningful challenge.
