# Linkedin October 2025 Posts

In October 2025 I logged a series of informal LinkedIn observations about token‑swap deals, founder leadership analogies, mentorship experiences, and community‑building challenges.

Padre went from being #5 solana terminal to #2 by volume upon announcement.

pump is a relatively mature token. not that much risk but no significant upside too.

when you get amazing founders in one room, they create great startups. we do not tell them what to do and how to do it. they just do it.

he was the director of TiE Mumbai.

From these observations I decided to highlight the opaque nature of early‑token swaps, adopt weekly founder‑update “metronome” practices, and replicate Kanchan Kumar’s mentorship model of tight founder cohorts and brutally honest feedback.
