feels great to be back! https://paragraph.xyz/@dish/post-clank-clarity

After high school, my five year plan was to become a great programmer and to be able to build applications. 

Did that. 

After college, my five year plan was to become a startup founder. 

Kinda did that but not as a founder role, rather as an employee first-hire. 

I’ve learned that a startup can mean many things; could be a company with low head count that has existed for 5+ years or a VC-backed idea.

Now that was 5 years ago, I have to recalibrate my goals. 

I have decided my next five year plan is to be a key player in an efficient business. 

Feels like a demotion but it doesn’t have to be. I’ve learned it takes a flexible team with balanced skillsets to accomplish that and doing it alone is lonely and improbably unrealistic. 

I still see myself as a glue guy and great team player, thats why I added the key player part. 

Efficient business means sustainably generating revenue for a product people are willing to pay for. 

How that plays out? We will see.

five months ago, I changed my goal from being a founder to being a "key player in an efficient business"

I was burnt out from building with no measurable success or traction and thought I would never do it

right when you're at your lowest and have nothing to lose, things start to take shape

Just pushed a decimal fix, BTC pairings are now stable! $10k starting market cap, just specify BTC pair on deployment

Farcaster

@clanker we are ready to deploy the $A0X token paired with BTC.

name: A0x

The token supports A0x.co, a platform where you can develop your own digital clone. With access to an extensive range of plugins, A0x.co enables both web3 and web2 functionalities, offering new solutions to old challenges.

We are launching with @clanker because we believe in winning together with a platform that believes in builders, away from extracting narratives, and closer to collaborative environments.

We are also launching $A0x paired with BTC, cause we believe in long term games, with long term partners, in a future where digital currency will be the key to enable the work of agents and humans together. Thanks @proxystudio.eth and @dish for enabling this.

Our token serves as the backbone for this ecosystem, empowering you to engage with digital services in innovative ways. 

Long A0x, long Base.

Boston, MA

I spent 2 hours today in 23° F (-5° C) onboarding as many people as possible in Boston to cryptocurrency.

I gave away ~$225 in Ethereum using:
- ZKSync Era's Clave (AA Wallet)
- onchaingift / Coinbase Wallet / Base L2

All while learning how much Boston knows about crypto. 👇

Boston is blockchain coded

tradfi & big tech is modern day taxation without representation
