A handful of friends have been asking me what's next. 

For the last couple of months, I wasn't sure. I said I wanted to take a break from crypto, and I explored a lot of other problem spaces. I noticed that no matter what I did, a quarter of my attention kept drifting back to crypto. And I realized how rare my long-term crypto beliefs are (i.e., most people still don't get eth, stablecoins, farcaster, higher, etc.).

A lot frustrates me about crypto, but it's still the space that interests me the most. It's where I have an amazing group of friends (y'all), deep knowledge of weird shit, and feel like I can build products that make a big (global), positive impact.

This definitely resonates with where I'm at right now. Short term bearish on where things are going, but long term bullish on the possibilities of the technologies. I'm starting to think that (for me at least) the right play is to just consider crypto as infrastructure... it's part of the journey, not the destination.

One thing that helped me was writing down all the things I believed in long-term and the things that frustrated me and why. I think it's really important to take a long-term so you can effectively ignore all the bs and irrational skepticism.

Love that. I’m going to do this tomorrow. Thanks for sharing!
