This interview with John Collison is very timely for me. My little "holiday" project of these days is to work on a memo on corporate strategy that I intend to submit to John for review. Who knows, maybe an opportunity will arise from it.

After doing some work and some digging on Stripe (despite I knew the company quite well already), I completely agree that there's still a ton of opportunities for them to expand.

It's actually hard to select a single expansion opportunity, as there are too many to pick from. Well, as said, a nice holiday project.

p.s. if you're willing to help me with some ideas, email me ($my_hn_name at gmail) and I'll happily share the document with you, as long as you can promise to be nice and not share it elsewhere.

edit: not sure why the downvotes?

It could be that people think you're some random person on the internet trying to get an audience with someone you have no chance of meeting. I'm not saying that's what you are — obviously you have quite a resume behind you — but at a first glance on HN it might appear a little delusional.

I'd be interested in reviewing your doc! Sent you an email.

Probably because it’s off topic.
Agreed, the original comment doesn't really provide value to the reader - it mostly just states the memo thing, and then the opinion that stripe has lots of verticals to expand into
Whats your project about?
Also curious
