The 3rd technology revolution: crypto.

This is the third great shift in technology. Just like computers and the internet created the foundation for everything we use today — crypto is the new primitive that will unlock applications we can’t even imagine yet.

Happy Father’s Day to the absolute legend and original Viswanathan!!! (My dad’s name is actually Viswanathan - in South India your dad’s first name becomes your first initial so my name would be V. Nikil!) Thanks for all of the love, care, and sacrifices you made to give us an incredible life!!! From playing with me after 72hr ICU shifts, telling us every day you believe in us and we can do anything, to cracking jokes non stop (he’s actually the funniest / unscripted viswanathan) - we love you so much and are so so grateful for you!!! Thanks for being my #1!!! 🥹❤️🙏🙌 by @nikil

Happy Mother’s Day to my two fav women @ushavis @taraviswanathan!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Super grateful to have the most incredible mom - from literally birthing me, to driving us to tennis and violin practice while cooking and going back to school for her masters degree (which was how I got into computers!!), to staying up all night to help me with my science projects, to STILL checking in daily to see if I had dinner (“I can fly up and cook for you!!!” 🥹)! So grateful to be showered in love since day 1!! You da best!!! ❤️ #SuperMom!

And of course the the legendary sis @taraviswanathan!! Everywhere I go it’s “omg you’re Tara’s brother!!! I LOVE your sister she’s so amazing and inspiring!!!”. What you don’t see is how WHILE having a baby (with no medicine 😳), running @rupa_health, negotiating a massive acquisition, and somehow helping everyone she meets, she always has the care, energy, and time to be my life coach, business advisor, and most importantly relationship guru! (Tbh if we recorded our convos it would prob be a bestselling relationship book 😂). And the newest super mom continues to wow us - literally while raising a newborn still has time to call me and check in on how I’m doing frequently 🥹❤️ literal GOAT sister - I’m super lucky to have been born into this family!!!

So much gratitude to all the moms and amazing women who make humanity possible. Witnessing the journey up close the past couple months with @taraviswanathan I realized just how strong and incredible y’all are. Absolutely mind blowing.

You all are the real MVPs 🙏❤️🥹 by @nikil

(Back on insta after 1 yr!! 👋🤩)

How did the @commanders go from being nearly worst team in the league (4-13) last year to one of the best (11-5) today?

My goal for today was did figure out.

Had been talking to the homie @kliffkingsbury about coming to see the legend in work behind the scenes and between the thousand other topics for late night text / FaceTime convos we finally decided let’s just do it!

For those of you that haven’t spent time with Kliff. This dude is incredible. Wakes up at 2:44am (every day!!! sleeps in till 4:30am Sundays) to get to work early before everyone else shows up, is the most hardworking and dedicated student of the game, ridiculously jacked and good looking, the nicest person ever, so humble (literally though we’ve been super close for multiple years I JUST found out today by accident he had international pop stars trying to date him), and a sponge so intent on learning from everyone that somehow every time we start talking football it ends up deep diving into crypto 😂. A true gem of a human, leader, and coach.

Oh yeah he also was the legendary QB at @texastech, played with @tombrady at the @patriots, scouted recruited and coached multiple legendary quarterbacks including @patrickmahomes, was the hot head coach at @texastech that every mom was after, and was a (still hot) head coach in the NFL for the Cardinals (note: at Stanford we are “Cardinal” the color not the bird). He does it all.

I love surrounding myself with greatness and learning from people who are at the top of their game (@taraviswanathan’s GOAT tour last year)!

Experiencing the behind the scenes was epic, super interesting, and inspiring. I learned a ton - several things we’re immediately implementing at Alchemy & in my life.

I’ve found lessons from greatness are very transferable across domains - the same core principles with a unique domain specific twist.

Was also such a blast hanging with my Stanford boys @tavitap @zachertz!!!

Thank you Dan Quinn & crew for the warm welcome!!

I discovered the @commanders success is bc the amazing humans there - in a large part Kliff!!
