Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Fred Wilson, founding partner of Union Square Ventures and early investor in Coinbase, Ethereum, and Filecoin, predicts that crypto's breakthrough in 2026 will come from making blockchains invisible to end users rather than launching new chains. Wilson forecasts that better consumer interfaces will allow users to use, spend, trade, and send tokens without concerning themselves with which blockchain they're on, handling infrastructure details in the background. Blockchain innovation will shift to user experience as the critical factor for mass adoption.
