TREE NEWS reports: The founder of Vector, a mobile social trading app sold to Coinbase, reflects on why fomo, a similar product, achieved greater success by targeting mainstream users beyond crypto Twitter. He believes social trading is a trillion-dollar opportunity as more assets move on-chain, including RWAs, and praises fomo’s execution.
Founder Reflects on Why fomo Outpaced Vector, Sees Social Trading as Trillion-Dollar Opportunity
This is a candid admission from a founder inside the space that product-market fit, not just technology, decides winners in social trading. The takeaway is that crypto-native audiences are a niche; the real scale lies in onboarding users who care about assets, not chains. The founder's framing of social trading as a trillion-dollar opportunity—especially as RWAs come on-chain—signals where the next wave of consumer crypto apps may compete: not on novelty but on accessibility and trust. Whether that thesis holds depends on whether execution can move beyond the echo chamber, which remains the open question.
