This week’s edition is packed with insights, but Stealth Startups really stood out to me. The shift away from building in public feels like the natural evolution of a more competitive landscape. Your point about private data, partnerships, and brand as the true moats hit hard—it’s a sharp reminder that in this era, strategic silence can be as powerful as the loudest pitch.
I also loved the analogy in Racecar Growth. Startups are indeed impractical machines built for speed, and your breakdown of how to steer through growth while avoiding crashes is spot-on.
Quick question: How do you think founders can strike a balance between maintaining privacy and still building enough visibility to attract top talent or investors?
