Sometimes this industry feels like a variant of The Dark Knight quote:

“You either die a builder, or you live long enough to see yourself become the scammer”

Whether you want to admit it or not, the crypto industry has mostly been a vehicle for dishonorable behavior

Your options after internalizing this are:
- capitulate to dishonorable behavior
- leave the industry 
- keep the faith that one day this will change 
- cognitive dissonance

I vacillate between #3 and #4

#5 recognize that technology doesn’t change human nature it reveals it

And this is true for all technology

Lead Clank @clankpad || Midwest mom in a California dad bod || Ruthlessly pro Farcaster

Non-sequitur that falls into the fourth bucket (cognitive dissonance / rationalization)

All technology is neutral and deployed by humans 

That doesn’t justify working for a tobacco company marketing department when you know cigarettes cause lung cancer
