True. There’s nothing yet. Who do you think is the most likely to come up with it?

An individual or team who’s great at UX, understands the need for technology like crypto, deeply cares about fixing its flaws and isn’t apologetic about them, has the skills to deliver a working system which scales, and most importantly, doesn’t have a cavalier attitude in the style of a postmodernist or postrat.

Are you someone who fits this description?

No. I have 3-4 years working in the intersection of FinTech and crypto, which is enough years for me to learn that:

- I’m not sufficiently skilled to make an impact in the future of finance tech (crypto or otherwise, but I believe the future is crypto)
- The dominant culture is not ready to support people who are

The dominant culture is one that can be described charitably as childish. It’s unbecoming. I know people are lonely or nostalgic of the aesthetics of the early 90s and want to signal that they’re counterculture, but counterculture only pushes frontiers in fine art, music, and filmmaking, not in finance & economics
