To maximize productivity and respect our mutual time, please follow these protocols. I prioritize clarity over ceremony. Please do not interpret brevity as a lack of respect; it is simply a commitment to efficiency.
Messages That Will Be Ignored
I do not respond to messages that lack immediate context or a clear objective. Avoid the following:
Placeholder Greetings: "Hi," "Hello," or "Are you there?"
Social Pleasantries: General inquiries about my well-being or holiday/birthday greetings.
Vague Meeting Requests: Asking for a call or meeting without providing a specific agenda.
Ambiguous Networking: "I have a big idea" or "I want to introduce you to someone" without stating the specific value or identity.
The Required Format
To ensure your message is read, please be direct and use this structure:
Identity: Who are you?
Intent: What do you need, or what specific value can you provide?
Note on Length: If your message requires more than one screen of scrolling on a mobile device, it will likely be skipped. Get to the point immediately.
Operational Routing
For specific business functions, please use the appropriate official channels rather than a direct message. I am a "slow router"; going through me is almost always the least efficient way to get a result.
For Pitches: Submit through the official investment portal.
For Listings: Use the standard online application process.
For Large Transactions: Contact the institutional trade desk.
Final Ground Rules
No Open-Ended Questions: I rarely have the granular data required to answer them.
No Speculative Assets: Do not request interaction with or promotion of specific tokens or projects.
Be Specific: If the "why" isn't clear in the first two sentences, the message will be archived.
Let’s keep the focus on results.
