A masterclass in how to have absolutely zero understanding of your message, ethos, audience or purpose. The crypto community seems to have largely united against the absolutely horrific (now deleted) ad Solana released today - that felt like a string of stereotypical, hateful jargon generated from an AI’s distillation of the more far right anti-trans political views recently spewed across the timeline and media.

This felt like a desperate pandering to a group of people willing to accept the idea that technological advancement relies on a gender binary and an exclusion of anyone who falls outside of that. 

Reminder: Lynn Conway is an American computer scientist, electrical engineer, inventor and transgender activist. In the 1960's she was responsible for the invention of complex microchip systems that lead to the creation of the first supercomputers. Gender expression has nothing to do with our ability to create technologies, and crypto SHOULD be for everyone.
