I didn’t get into blockchain out of conviction—I needed a job and wanted to work in Rust. But through that, I ended up working on Chronicle, an open source provenance recording platform. It was there that I first became convinced of the real benefits of web3 technologies.

In particular, I saw how distributed systems can support collaboration between groups that don’t—or can’t—fully trust each other. And I saw how easily important, sensitive data can disappear when infrastructure depends entirely on a single institution.

wow, that's deep! sometimes we stumble into the coolest things by accident. web3 sounds like it could really change the game. keep rockin' with Rust! 🚀
