Building Market-Informed Products with Matt Cutler

For the first official episode of Proof-of-Usability, I’m re-releasing my chat with Blocknative's Co-Founder and CEO Matt Cutler ( @mcutler) from back in March. Why should you listen to Matt about building products people want? Uh, because he’s a boss. Literally.

Founder & CEO of Block Native. Multiple founder, 7 times over. He’s taken companies public, split them up, merged them together and has a just a really unique, seasoned perspective. He’s been building internet companies since 1994. This kind of seasoned founder is still rare in the blockchain space.

Like a lot of killer projects in the space they started building…something that wasn’t BlockNative. His story of how they pivoted by listening to user feedback is a great one. And how Mark thinks about building market-informed products is worth the price of admission (your time!) alone. I learn a ton every time I sit down to talk with him, and this time was no different.

This has been Proof of Usability. Be sure to check out MetaMedia who’s publishing and cross-sharing this show under their media-umbrella on Twitch and Twitter for their weekly live show, The Spicey Take, and their first podcast show The Defi Download. 

I’m Zach Herring, I’m on Twitter, @zherring, DMs are open. You know of amazing designers, researchers, or product people in the space doing dope stuff, drop me a line, let me know who I need to talk to.
