Greetings!
I’m sending out a hello and a quick heads-up that the very first issue of BabsNYC.news drops tomorrow!
I don’t have to tell you that IRL is a crazy place right now. Do you know the number one thing that has helped me stay optimistic? It’s you.
I’ve met or seen so many smart, funny, impressive people at digital assets events, Tech Week NYC, Bitcoin meetups, the BabsNYC launch at St. Mark’s comedy club, SheFi chats, friends' referrals, or somewhere in between.
Thank you for connecting and subscribing. Every single person seeing this is a valuable, smart, ingenious spark in the growing blockchain advocacy chain!
BabsNYC is the only newsletter presenting a cross-sector overview of blockchain’s progress in NYC. I started it after seven years as a content strategist and marketing writer for emerging tech, finance, and Web3, including contracts with some of the biggest firms in the business in the U.S. and LATAM.
On tap in Issue 1.0:
FINANCE: Privacy and permissioned chains for institutions.
BITCOIN: Tamed for good by Wall Street, or just a midlife crisis?
CIVIC BLOCKCHAIN: Mayor Mamdani’s office is holding Commission on Government Efficiency hearings. How much of the initial testimony refers to problems blockchain can address? Check out our data findings from a preliminary analysis.
DEPIN: Signs of life? Plus, the trouble with tokenomics.
REGULATION: Don't hold your breath, the Clarity Act is not coming soon.
TOUCH GRASS: A NYC bathhouse chain that mines BTC, plus an artsy reason to leave your desk.
Thanks again, and see you tomorrow!
