One of the most interesting features of the current crypto markets is the elevated level of dispersion, or range of returns across different parts of the market.

We were deeply troubled to learn about the serious allegations made recently against @EclipseFND founder Neel Somani. We do not tolerate sexual harassment or misconduct in any form at Hack VC, and we hold our founders and portfolio companies to the same high standards. To be perfectly clear: the alleged behavior in question is unacceptable, full stop. Since learning about the allegations, we worked hard with other investors and the team to correct the situation, including urging Neel to resign, and we are pleased to see that happen. We have strong conviction in the rest of the @EclipseFND team and the project’s mission. We fully support @0xLitquidity in his new role as CEO and believe he’s the ideal person to drive the project forward. He’s a respected and accomplished leader across crypto and traditional finance, and we are grateful that he is stepping into this position.
