The consumer crypto era has definitively begun, kick started by Pump.fun, we’re seeing bright spots across the consumer crypto landscape. We firmly believe this trend has legs. Some of our favorite crypto consumer apps today are leaning into a feature uniquely enabled by crypto - net new asset issuance. We believe this gives them a higher probability of success than previous experiments, which eschewed speculation and did not lean into crypto’s unique enabling features.

Maple Finance has successfully navigated significant market challenges through its strategic pivot to secured lending (Maple v2) and the launch of its Syrup product. Syrup has become a primary growth driver, delivering sustainable, outperforming stablecoin yields and rapidly increasing TVL. The upcoming custody-first Bitcoin staking product (istBTC) presents another significant avenue for expansion. Crucially, Maple has achieved operational profitability, a key inflection point that, combined with a fully vested token and active buyback mechanism, strengthens its investment case. While valuation metrics suggest potential undervaluation relative to peers and growth, the primary forward-looking risk identified is the long-term sustainability of its current high-take-rate collateral staking revenue model.
