What kind of traction is Venice experiencing, and what are the early thoughts on user acquisition and next steps for the company?
Tony Xiao
Founder & CEO at Venice
We're still pretty early, so just testing privately with a few companies at the moment, building more based on what they need. The next step for us is to actually get this launched.
One of the most interesting use cases is of companies wanting to use our product as decentralized on/off-ramps for crypto. If we're going to move towards a global financial system, then, you need data access that works globally. That's something that would make me very proud—if we can enable that, even if it's for a small percentage of the population that actually have global lifestyles and assets.
It's really just in an early stage startup phase of making sure we build a product that has 10 customers—that's our next milestone—10 companies rely upon us for their infrastructure, and then launching it to get broader access.
We think we're building this obviously in the open, publicly, by the very nature of open source. We are bullish of the open source community being a unique acquisition channel for us, a developer-first open source community.
