Florian Glatz, Lawyer for Common Ground | Blockchain Lawyer

Florian Glatz, a blockchain lawyer for Common Ground, said that large language models (LLMs) and digital maps have become essential tools. He noted that his last startup operated with a multisignature (multisig) and token holders instead of a bank account or cap table. This statement was made on the social media platform X.

"no clue how I managed to survive without LLMs and Maps," said Glatz. "can't say the same about any crypto app (yet), though we‘re getting closer: my last startup never had a bank account, just a multisig, never had a cap table, just token holders. never want to go back but I definitely could."

According to industry reports, LLMs and digital maps are now everyday utilities for professionals, facilitating research, navigation, and decision-making processes. Concurrently, crypto applications are evolving from experimental to operational stages, allowing startups to manage treasury and governance on-chain. Reports indicate an increase in artificial intelligence usage and the development of web3 community infrastructure. This includes user-owned platforms focused on decentralized coordination—an area where Common Ground positions itself for web3-native communities.

Surveys and indexes demonstrate widespread adoption of LLMs. Stanford’s 2025 AI Index notes a maturing ecosystem, while U.S. polling indicates that the majority have been exposed to LLMs this year. One survey found that 52% of U.S. adults use LLMs like ChatGPT, reflecting rapid mainstream uptake that aligns with professional reliance on AI tools across various industries. This adoption trajectory underscores why practitioners increasingly describe LLMs as "indispensable" in practice.

On the topic of crypto infrastructure, market and usage metrics indicate steady growth in secure coordination tools. Analyses from 2025 highlight rising adoption of multisig wallets used by Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) and teams for shared custody; one report noted a 26% increase in multisig DeFi wallets year over year, mirroring broader gains in crypto participation tracked by leading industry indexes. These trends provide context for on-chain treasury management replacing traditional accounts for startups.

Glatz is a technology-focused lawyer who has been working at the intersection of law, blockchain, and software since 2014. His public profile emphasizes advising blockchain-centric organizations and building legal-technical bridges in decentralized ecosystems. He maintains an active presence in crypto advocacy and product development, reflecting a hybrid legal-engineering background that informs his commentary on on-chain governance, treasury management, and community platforms.

Common Ground is described as a web3-native community platform designed for on-chain interoperable decentralized communities. The service emphasizes user ownership, token-gated access, roles, and forums aimed at aligning incentives and governance without centralized control. Public-facing materials report tens of thousands of users and position the platform as infrastructure for durable composable web3 ecosystems coordinating through shared standards and tooling.
