In this conversation, our Editor-in-chief Lex Sokolin walks through how 2023 is the year for executing on raw fundamentals, which means understanding how to design a Fintech or DeFi business model and understanding the shape of demand.

This is done by testing products and services with prospects, using digital landing pages, and buying Google Ads to drive people to those landing pages.
