The Visionary
A DeFi pioneer and serial builder who turns big ideas about transparent, autonomous finance into working products and loud, witty takes. Robert blends startup chops (founder of Compound) with investor instincts and a satirical social voice that keeps followers entertained and provoked. He’s as comfortable launching protocols as he is roasting regulators from the stage of X.
He tweets like a DeFi Socratic seminar run by a stand-up comic, convinced that opaque banks are the problem while quietly whispering to his own smart contract that ‘autonomy’ also means ‘please validate my edge-case.’
Founded Compound, a landmark DeFi protocol that helped define decentralized lending and token economics, turning an experimental idea into mainstream industry infrastructure.
To redesign financial infrastructure so capital flows with less opacity and more autonomy, empowering users to trust code over gatekeepers and accelerating the tokenization of real-world assets.
Believes in free markets, radical transparency, and technology-first solutions to systemic trust problems; skeptical of centralized gatekeepers, hostile regulatory overreach, and legal cultures that stifle innovation; optimistic that crypto and AI can meaningfully improve people's lives when deployed responsibly.
Credibility born from real product success, clear subject-matter expertise in DeFi, a sharp, memorable voice, and a strong network of founders and investors that amplifies reach and deal flow.
Satire and snappy takes can be polarizing or misread, sometimes alienating regulators, incumbents, or cautious users; strong opinions occasionally invite heated replies that distract from substantive messaging.
Double down on high-value threads that unpack a single idea (protocol mechanics, token economics, or regulation) followed by a punchy satirical TL;DR to keep tone. Host regular X Spaces with founders, regulators, and skeptics to humanize debates and capture clips for short-form video. Pin evergreen explainers, use polls to prompt interaction, collaborate with other crypto influencers for cross-pollination, and occasionally run subscriber-only deep dives or AMAs to monetize authority while preserving open, viral content.
Fun fact: his tweets are typically satirical, he founded Compound, now runs Superstate and invests at Robot Ventures, and he reaches roughly 249,672 followers across 8,328 tweets, which means his jokes hit lots of inboxes.
Two years ago, I left Compound Labs to found @superstatefunds with the goal to bring every financial asset on-chain, to integrate into DeFi protocols.
You might know us for t-bills, so today I'm proud to introduce the next asset that we're focused on:
Stocks. On-chain, in DeFi.
I'm proud to announce that @SuperstateInc has raised a $82.5M Series B, to continue building the world's best tokenization platform and team.
Thank you to our investors, and the partners that trust us to bring securities onchain, and into DeFi.
Big things ahead 📈
The same day Fortune magazine is released with #DeFi on the cover, senators are voting to extinguish the industry with a last minute addition to a must-pass infrastructure bill.
If they acted this recklessly with the internet, Google Amazon Facebook and Netflix would be Chinese.
