Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. In this episode, the gang reunites to confront a troubling pattern: we're making the same mistakes all over again. From the $223 million Sui hack and validator-led censorship to Coinbase's insider data breach and the Trump token dinner spectacle, this week feels like a remix of the industry's most painful lessons. The crew reflects on how decentralization is being quietly redefined, why newer chains ignore crypto's origin story, and what it means when memecoins are the new access pass to political influence. Also: James Wynn's billion-dollar trades, fading cypherpunk values, and a creeping sense that the crypto future looks a lot like its past. Show highlights

Send us a textThe tech and enterprise software landscape is undergoing rapid transformation, marked by a mix of bold acquisitions and cautious public market strategies. While Databricks' CEO candidly states that “it's dumb to IPO this year,” citing market volatility and strategic timing, major players are making aggressive moves elsewhere. From Thomson Reuters' $600M acquisition of tax automation firm SafeSend to WWT's $1.25B blockbuster deal to acquire Softchoice, the momentum is clearly shifting toward consolidation and capability expansion. Microsoft's Satya Nadella has also sparked debate with his prediction that AI agents could overtake traditional SaaS models by 2025, signaling a fundamental shift in how software is built and consumed. Meanwhile, companies like SPS Commerce, Cass Information Systems, and Later are strengthening their portfolios through targeted acquisitions, reflecting a broader trend of investing in specialized tools and emerging platforms. Together, these developments hint at a future shaped less by IPOs and more by ecosystem dominance and AI-powered disruption.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories. We covered many grounds, including the direction and roadmaps of each enterprise software vendor. Finally, we analyzed future trends and how they might shape the enterprise software industry.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.

Jon Herold returns with a loaded Tuesday edition of The Daily Herold, unpacking everything from tariff tremors to CIA blunders. Special guest Gabrielle Cucci joins early in the episode for an intel-packed conversation about Trump's $1 trillion Pentagon budget and what it might really be funding, including missile defense upgrades, Space Force expansions, and Lockheed's next-gen fighter jets. They dive into the recent shakeups in military leadership, the quiet chaos inside Cyber Command, and the potential split of the NSA and CyberCom. Gabrielle breaks major news on a forced CIA vaccine program that risked blowing agent cover abroad, leading to the quiet firing of a senior official. Jon follows with deep analysis on the state of global trade negotiations as 70 countries scramble to adjust to Trump's shockwave tariff policy, including South Korea's fast pivot and Israel's awkward Oval Office moment. Other key stories include the Supreme Court greenlighting Trump's wartime immigration authority under the Alien Enemies Act, Ripple's $1.25B acquisition and crypto ascension, and Trump's 104% tariff punch to China. The show wraps with a look at weaponized prosecutions, IRS layoffs, revived dire wolves (yes, really), and Jon's take on how all these stories signal the regime's unraveling. Buckle up. It's a wide-ranging episode that proves the Herold always delivers.

Welcome to another episode of The Coral Capital Podcast, a show where we bring on guests from tech, business, politics, and culture to talk about all things Japan. Today's guest is Andrew Schoen, Partner at NEA (New Enterprise Associates) . Established in 1977, NEA has served as a partner to the founders and teams behind some of the most transformational innovations in healthcare and technology over the past five decades including Cloudflare, Databricks, Coursera, Perplexity, Plaid, and Robinhood. The firm manages over $25B in AUM and invests across the early to post IPO stages. Andrew joined NEA in 2014 and invests in founders innovating in AI/ML, fintech, frontier tech, infrastructure software, technically differentiated SaaS and security. Prior to NEA, he was a member of Blackstone's M&A Group. Prior to Blackstone, he founded Flicstart. Andrew serves on the Cornell University Council, the Advisory Council for Entrepreneurship at Cornell, and is President Emeritus of the Cornell Venture Capital Club. He earned his master's degree as a Schwarzman Scholar and his bachelor's degree in economics and science of earth systems in engineering at Cornell. We've highlighted some insights from the conversation below: While NEA has had Japanese LPs for over 40 years, the firm only recently began actively investing in Japan. Talent is a leading indicator for the health of a startup ecosystem, and Japan has a high caliber of talent. Japan's startup ecosystem has key ingredients for success: A large GDP, strong technology base, quality education, and increasing enterprise demand for software and tech solutions. How Japanese founders pitch differently from US founders: Some Japanese founders are more modest about their vision, but overall, there's more similarity than difference in how founders pitch between Japan and the U.S. One major difference is that Japanese founders often set specific IPO dates early, whereas U.S. startups typically stay flexible based on market conditions. Japanese LPs often expect faster exits, but longer time horizons can lead to bigger and more successful outcomes. How to raise money from U.S. VCs: The first meeting is only about securing a second meeting — don't disqualify yourself early by making common mistakes like overstating valuation. Japanese startups should leverage local investors to get warm introductions. What NEA looks for in Japan: Mid to growth-stage, high-velocity, high-margin, software-driven businesses. Growth benchmarks also matter: $10M–$20M ARR → 100% growth $20M–$30M ARR → 50~100% growth $100M ARR → 30~40% growth Key metrics such as LTV/CAC, net revenue retention, and burn multiples are important—but potential future growth trumps past numbers. Longer term sheets = fewer surprises. Short-term sheets can leave room for bad terms later. ----- For founder's building Japan's next legendary companies, reach out to us here: https://coralcap.co/contact-startups/ If you're interested in joining a Coral startup join our talent network here: https://coralcap.co/coral-careers/

Shirlette Ammons is a Durham, NC-based musician, writer, and producer who grew up in rural Eastern North Carolina in an area called Beautancus near the little town of Mount Olive (where they make the pickles). As a musician, Shirlette has released four albums including her latest, called Spectacles which came out in April of 2024. She’s published several books of her poetry, and is currently working on a podcast called “Tending” that explores the stories of Black farmers who were claimants in the class action lawsuit, Pigford vs. Glickman. That suit alleged that the USDA discriminated against Black farmers in its allocation of farm loans and assistance from 1981 to 1996.

Shegun Otulana is a seasoned entrepreneur, advisor, mentor and investor. Drawing from his experience as a bootstrapped startup founder who found incredible success, his mission is to empower the next generation of builders by sharing his lessons learned to guide their entrepreneurial journeys. In addition to mentoring founders in his community – many of whom have gone on to launch successful companies – he also enjoys sharing his insight with startup leaders, business associations, academic institutions and other growth-minded groups.In 2013, Shegun founded TheraNest and its parent company, Therapy Brands, a software platform for mental, behavioral, substance and physical rehab providers and organizations. In 2021, he exited the business for $1.25 billion, the largest software exit on record in the state of Alabama.Prior to establishing Therapy Brands, Shegun founded Zertis Technologies, a computer software consultancy company. Today, he continues his “idea lab” approach as the Founder of Harmony Venture Labs (HVL), an idea and growth studio that owns and operates a family of technology companies.In this powerful episode of From Start-Up to Grown-Up, I sit down with Shegun Otulana, who bootstrapped his way from Nigeria to building a $1.25B healthcare tech company in Birmingham, Alabama.What struck me most about Shegun's journey?➡️ The power of constraints as blessings - limited funding forced profitable growth from day one➡️ Culture needs rituals - it's not enough to have values, you must memorialize and celebrate them➡️ Leadership growth requires vulnerability - others see you differently than you see yourselfOne of my favorite insights: "Your nature is your nature, but you need to find people who complement what you don't bring to the table." Shegun openly shared how he learned to build strong remote teams by finding cultural champions when that wasn't his natural strength.When Shegun could only raise $250,000 in 10 months for his healthcare SaaS company, he turned that constraint into motivation. Without the luxury of burning cash, he had to build profitably from day one. Rather than seeing limited capital as a barrier, he viewed it as a blessing that forced disciplined growth - a mindset that ultimately led to a billion-dollar exit.It's about intentionally designing incentive structures that make your team feel safe to experiment and learn.Learn more about Shegun | Websitehttps://shegunotulana.com/Connect with Alisa!

A few weeks back, I was the morning speaker at an event hosted by David Senra of FoundersPodcast (one of my favorite podcasts and people). The afternoon speaker was someone I'd never heard of before, Shegun Otulana. The story he told resonated deeply — a Nigerian immigrant who came to study at the University of Alabama. He had the drive to be an entrepreneur and had a few early attempts that ended in a failed partnership and a pile of debt. Feeling like he was made for more than pushing pixels at a 9-to-5, and at the urging of his wife, Shegun set out to find a problem he could solve and eventually build a business around. A chance encounter led to meeting the head of a mental health clinic in Birmingham, AL. They needed a new system to run their practice but none seemed to fit their unique needs. After failing to find them something he could help them buy, Shegun built them a simple app. That simple app led to feature requests, which led to his first paying customer and then the word of mouth began to spread. Within 5 years, after only having raised $250,000 from local angel investors and with no experience in the industry, that side project had become a thriving business doing north of $50M in ARR and was valued at hundreds of millions of dollars. Along the way, he has able to bring in PE investors and de-risk his personal finances with several rounds of secondary. He eventually sold the business to KKR in 2021 for $1.25B, making it the largest tech exit in Alabama. Some takeaways from this one:— Shegun built a successful healthcare software company through disciplined, customer-obsessed growth. Their approach centered on deeply understanding customer problems at counseling centers and building the initial product based on direct feedback. They found differentiation through an innovative pricing model aligned with customer needs and an SEO forward sales motion.— Starting with just $250,000 in initial funding, Shegun grew the business to over $50M in revenue within 5 years, eventually selling to KKR for $1.25 billion. Shegun emphasized fundamental business principles rather than chasing fundraising hype. The company maintained strong financials with 30% profit margins and 90% gross margins, growing organically without requiring additional capital on the balance sheet.— Shegun's leadership philosophy focused on creating a culture of transparency where team members could be vulnerable while maintaining high standards. He built a distributed team to access talent cost-effectively and gave team members significant autonomy within clear guidelines.At the conclusion of his talk at Senra's event, we both met in the hallway and gave each other a big hug. It was like finding someone who was a part of your tribe — speaking your same language and sharing your same values.When we realized we'd both be at the Main Street Summit the following week, we decided then and there to get his story recorded. The MSS organizers were kind enough to turn over their main stage theatre for us to record in after hours and I think the resulting conversation and visuals make this one you can't skip. I hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording it.As always, if you or someone you know is working on something that could be a fit for indie, don't hesitate to reach out.Bryce

In this episode of the Top of Mind podcast, Mike Simonsen sits down with Mike McNamara, co-founder and CEO of Samara, to talk about all things ADUs. ADUs, or accessory dwelling units, are small, self-contained residential units located on the same lot as an existing single-family home. You might know them as “granny flats” or “in-laws” or even “casitas.” And given the housing affordability crisis in our country, ADUs are starting to really gain traction as a potential solution for this. Mike gives us a primer on ADUs and why they hold so much promise for solving many of America's housing challenges. About Mike McNamara Mike McNamara is the co-founder and CEO of Samara, a company that aims to improve the way we live, starting by holistically reimagining the home.

Rafi Farber - World War III Kabuki Theater Brings Gold Briefly to $3,000 Where do people pile their dollars in the End Game? We got a sneak preview this week, twice, as Iran and Israel both pretended to start World War III with mutual pretend bombing raids on each other telegraphed days in advance to the entire solar system. Despite the obvious theater of it all, gold spiked to $3,000 on Saturday night on nerves as 300 missiles made their way to Israel at a drunken snail's pace. At the very same moment, bitcoin dumped by 10%. So there's that. Meanwhile, UBS – the bank that took over Credit Suisse last year – needs a $25B bailout but they're not calling it that because it's a bad word. And in another lesson from the 1970s, the gold to silver ratio was stable from 1972 until we finally got to 1979, which Rafi thinks we are just about to repeat.
