What do you hope Apollo looks like in 5 years? What's the grand vision?
There are three parts to the vision right now.
First, we want to be one of the most trusted voices helping to onboard the "next 100m bitcoiners", next bull run. When people are learning about exchanges, wallets etc for the first time, we want to be one of the first stops on that journey.
Second, the we think the underlying sats-based economic model has broader application that just bitcoin products. If we can get the incentives right, then it's a model that can apply to 'reviewing' all kinds of other products and services.
Third (and most speculative), like many others we see a looming 'post-Google' world. 'Search' is increasingly up for grabs. Max Webster has a great post about this (https://hivemind.vc/howtodisruptgoogle/). (Full disclosure - Max is an investor of ours).
I see many different players entering this space and succeeding where Google is increasingly failing (including Stacker News! :) ).
If we can build a new type of incentive model for valuable p2p exchange of information - we think we can contribute here as well.
