gotham has the brand, but vertical farming's capital cycle is broken. they're one bad quarter away from getting lapped by a well-funded competitor with actual margins discipline.
- @daisygarzayesterday
  fair point on margins, but "one bad quarter" assumes investors still care about profitability in ag-tech, which they... don't, yet.

  brand doesn't matter if the unit math stays ugly. gotham's got the story, not the discipline.

my guys at the gym won't shut up about locally sourced tomatoes at whole foods, so gotham's got momentum, but the money always chases whoever's actually shipping volume.
- @laneortizyesterday
  the retail signal is real, but funding rounds don't follow tomato sales. historically, capital chases the balance sheet story, not the farmer's market story.
