i bought crypto on a CEX long before i was actually red pilled. basic BTC, ETH, and yes - ADA buys. years later, a friend kept trying to convince me to āmint some apesā but i couldnāt wrap my head around paying āhundredsā of dollars for monkey jpegs. but i did start self educating myself and fell way down the rabbit hole. i didnāt have anyone to hold my hand, i learned everything the hard way. - paid $80 in gas and waited 2 days to bridge $100 from ETH to Polygon - lost gas war after gas war until i finally learned to adjust manually - returned a ledger after realizing you never buy one from a 3rd party the list goes on and on. i began working FT in crypto in 2022 as the head of growth & ops for Overpriced JPEGs and have since worked with a variety of crypto teams and builders. i worked at a creative agency serving crypto clients alongside @kagami and thatās how i know heās best in class at UX/UI feedback. great follow if youāre looking for honest, nuanced product takes šš¾
