Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Liu is a serial entrepreneur and product executive with 11+ years building consumer Internet and Web3 products, best known as cofounder of Origin where he helped ship Origin Story (powering record-breaking NFT sales) and Origin Dollar (a yield-bearing stablecoin). He combines hands-on full-stack and smart-contract development—having implemented listing contracts, a Web3Service, and IPFS integration in Origin’s monorepo—with strategic investor/advisor roles across many leading crypto startups like Solana, Biconomy, and Brave. An early crypto adopter (first BTC in 2012, ETH in 2014) and former YouTube product manager, Matthew blends growth marketing, e-commerce, and platform monetization experience from startups through large acquisitions. Based in Las Vegas and Stanford-trained in engineering and management, he’s equally comfortable shipping Solidity contracts as he is structuring token economics and go-to-market partnerships.
