had many insightful convos this past week with builders in nyc. some themes that stood out:

> picking the right battles as a product designer, and setting up the right process from day 1
> role of design thinking in crypto, when external incentives are the new playing field

> building more nostalgic, resonant experiences for crypto social this time around
> non-crypto friends inquiring about the bitcoin ETF :)

> effectively driving product ux decisions requires having the tough convo of "who owns what"
> design careers: how (and whether) to focus on craft when ladders nudge you into strategy & mentorship. going full-time freelance as an end-state..
> crypto as a counterbalance to AI, for trust & verification
