The twins 😅😅😅 I remember during the 2010s… they’re regarded… as … 😅😅😅

Then they took him to court and sued for 65 million.
Now, they're crypto kings worth billions.
6 Lessons the Winklevoss Twins Learned After Facebook:

⬇️
It starts at Harvard, 2002.
Two 6'5" twins, exceptional rowers, Olympic dreams in their eyes.
But they weren't just athletes.
Cameron & Tyler saw the digital revolution coming.

They trained at 4:30 AM every morning.
Rowed until their hands bled.
Studied economics between practices.
This discipline would later transform them into crypto visionaries.

The Facebook saga taught them something crucial:
Traditional systems could be disrupted.
Old money could be reimagined.
The future belonged to those who built it.

2012: While others saw Bitcoin as a fad...
The twins saw the next financial revolution.

But a complete rebuild of the banking system.

Here's where it gets fascinating:
They didn't just buy crypto.
They decided to build the infrastructure.
Enter Gemini - named after the zodiac twins.

Why Gemini was different:
• Built for institutions, not just traders
• Focused on compliance from day one
• Insurance for digital assets
• Bank-grade security systems
They positioned Gemini as the bridge between:

Old money (Wall Street)
And new money (crypto)
Their unique advantage? They spoke both languages:
• Harvard economics expertise
• Deep tech understanding
• Wall Street connections
• Silicon Valley mindset
But Gemini faced challenges:

2022 #crypto winter hit hard.
Genesis bankruptcy created turbulence.
Yet the twins kept building.
The platform evolved:
• Launched Gemini Pay
• Created Nifty Gateway for NFTs
• Built earn programs
• Expanded globally

Key innovations they introduced:
• First licensed Bitcoin exchange
• World's first Bitcoin futures contract
• Regulated stablecoin (GUSD)
• Institutional custody solutions
Their billion-dollar insight:

Crypto needed legitimacy more than anarchy.
Regulation isn't the enemy. It's the key to mass adoption.
Geminis's strategy worked:
• Custodies more than $30B in crypto assets
• Millions of global users
• Presence in 60+ countries
• Industry-leading security record

1. Setbacks sharpen vision:
Facebook's betrayal taught them to build trust first, disrupt later.
2. Position ahead of trends:
While others aped. They built for Wall Street's billions.
3. Embrace what others fight:
The twins learned to work with banks while others fought them.

4. Infrastructure beats speculation:
They built systems, not just investments.
5. Leverage unique backgrounds:
Their rowing discipline + Harvard network = unique edge.
6. Think decades, not years:
They're building for the next financial system.

The twin takeaway:
Sometimes the biggest opportunities...
Come disguised as defeats.
What looks like a setback...
Might just be a setup.
