What do you read to understand the industry. I am a wannabe entrepreneur  and I feel it is important to real a lot. But i don't find trustworthy sources. I tried to read McKinsey reports but they support web3 metaverse, and I find these stupid stupid. Can you suggest me some sources?? I guess there is one called ken, but its paid, is it worth it?

Reading sources

Software Engineer

Reading sources- Grapevine

I want to read in depth business case studies/stories from India. I also want to consume relevant startup news and updates. What is the best place to find such content? Seems like all good content is hidden behind a paywall. If I have to buy a subscription which one should I buy?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Is there any significant real world use case of Blockchain?
Apart from being a investment instrument that randomly goes up and down.

I think it may have some very very niche use cases, but not like what crypto marketing kids keep shouting. Trying to shove it everywhere.

It's been so long but still we haven't seen any real public product built with it, that does some real problem. Apart from all the scams.

I stil think it is a solution searching for a problem.


P.S.- I have written smart contract and other tech for NFT companies that made a ton of money during last bull run, so I know the ecosystem a bit.

What problem does Web3 solve?

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

- I look at the past data , mostly
Profit, growth and p/e value (undervalued)
- look for forecast reports on ticker tape, etc
- look at trader sentiment on Moneycontrol , online portals etc 
What else can I do to improve?

How do you do stock picking research ?

I really like reading great blogs. Paul Graham’s blogs are one of the more enjoyable ones to me and I constantly find myself reading through them again and again.

The writing is clear and has strongly incisive insights on the entrepreneurial path. 

This is an excellent read: http://www.paulgraham.com/badeconomy.html

Looking forward to suggestions from you all.

[Thread] What is your go-to blog to read?

Hey folks, i m a wannabe be entrepreneur. My reasons are simple I like problem solving and I want to create a secondary source of income. How do you find those problems? I feel you guys stumble upon problem statements through your own experiences. Ohh and one more thing, if there are any solopreneurs here on grapevine, let me know your thoughts as well as your journey too. Cheers :)

Content Strategist

Hey everyone. 

Thought I could do an AMA. A bit about me - have 4 years of work experience and graduated from a non engineering college. Was at a startup before (from Series B to Series D) before becoming a VC

Personally look at consumer and B2B investments here 

Happy to answer any questions around life as a junior VC, startup ecosystem, career growth etc.

AMA: I work at a large VC Fund focusing on early stage investments

This is the biggest problem with VC ecosystem 4 yoe kids taking calls on experienced, hardworking founders. Dude first learn the game then invest , judge people playing the game. VCs know nothing about how to run startups. Unless they have been entrepreneurs themselves. IMO It's a colossal waste of talent to become a VC for young PPL.

Investment Associate

Please put down your opinions which one you like in terms of content, research, authenticity and to keep a tab on startup world
Any other options welcome too

What are some platforms you use for quality reads on anything tech/ business? I'm exploring more as ones I follow don't seem enough. Thanks in advance! :)

I personally follow 
1. Finshots
2. Bain Insights
3. ET Prime (some articles are good)
4. Inc42 (though the paywall is an issue) 
5. LinkedIn here and there, not good lately
