🚨Excited to share a new chapter: I’ve joined Ava Labs as Senior Vice President of Growth to focus on shaping and amplifying Avalanche’s story. Avalanche is at a pivotal moment: -Anthony Scaramucci’s fund is moving hundreds of millions on-chain -Dinari is launching tokenized U.S. equities -The California DMV has digitized 42 million car titles on Avalanche to detect fraud and streamline transfers -FIFA is launching its own Avalanche based blockchain for fan ticketing/engagement This is what the future looks like: blockchain and crypto becoming the foundation of modern finance, government services, and global culture. My focus will be connecting the dots across Avalanche’s institutional and consumer ecosystem — ensuring builders, institutions, and users all share in a cohesive story of growth and adoption. Forever grateful for my time at Solana, where I had the privilege of helping shape an ecosystem during a period of rapid expansion and working with some of the most talented founders, partners, and teammates in crypto. 💜 Excited to officially join the incredible team at Ava Labs! Grateful for the warm welcome and support from Luigi D'Onorio DeMeo Charley Cooper John Nahas Morgan Krupetsky and more. Onward. 🔺 https://lnkd.in/eVs5r2nd

The future of tokenization isn’t about one chain to rule them all. As John Nahas put it: “We’ve made blockchains faster, cheaper, more scalable… but that doesn’t solve business use cases ... The world doesn’t work that way.” Real-world adoption requires purpose-built blockchains—whether jurisdiction-specific, compliance-specific, or asset-specific—designed to interoperate. Only then can cash onchain seamlessly transact with tokenized assets. That’s the path from proofs of concept to meaningful adoption. Watch more from the panel at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium this week. 👇
