Congrats! What is going to happen of the next few years with AI is going to be mind blowing. The more people you can stear away from crypto and towards democratizing AI, the better, IMO.

Crypto has run it's course, I don't think Gary did anything wrong by helping the crypto experiment happen. But YC is about the future, not the past.

Realistically YC is about maximizing ROI and I would happily bet a crypto-related startup will be in Summer '23s cohort - they have crazy valuations and liquidity out of the gates. Personally I want those startups to showcase problems crypto is useful at solving rather than selling pickaxes to the gold rush but I'm less sure that that'll happen. Certainly the idea that Crypto has ran its course is, IMO, premature - people have said that during every bear market since the beginning yet overall usage appears to be increasing and institutional buy-in again appears to be increasing.
