Anon mode won’t be available. To use the app, you’ll need to link a phone number. This helps us keep spam out and makes sure everyone is real. One phone number = one account.

This is why crypto is less exciting right now.  Instead of solving hard problems we’re just tradFi-ing.

It’s understandable why.  It’s a tested solution to a problem.  It’s just not inspiring.

Kinda crazy how on point the writers 50 + years ago were in predicting our time.

If you aren’t thinking you aren’t living.

Wouldn’t it be great if we could…
 - transact without big bank?
 - talk without big tech?
 - govern without big gov?

Blockchain is a return to smallness.

Think big, act small. 🏴

Of the last 24 hours, I’ve slept about 14 of them with small breaks for dad-ing.

It’s been a tough week, but it made me realize I haven’t really been living lately.  I’ve been floating through like a ghost without much substance.

This week, I start to live again 🏴

cryptobaddies

Held our first cryptobaddies meeting today. We onboarded 40+ women into Blockchain industry and i feel so proud. These women will now have an opportunity to learn and thrive in the crypto industry which was previously dominated by men 😊 be on the lookout for our next meetup 
Hail 🏴

Some portion of the discomfort is because we are all digitally socializing with a bunch of rich people and the debt laden rich LARPers

Just get used to less, it’s fine 

All these choices at the grocery store and all this food out of season, China junk on demand, mansions, disposable outfits….. fuck it 

Do I have a safe place to sleep
Do I have quality food at all (not living off ramen)
Do I have reliable power 

Then I’m living in luxury 

I will say this until I fully believe it 

The key to happiness in our time is to EXPECT LESS

🏴 « Get used to less, it’s fine »

Needing less is how you get more of what you want.  Reducing your needs is freedom.

A final GCoffee before hitting the road (thanks @drewcoffman.eth for the rec)!

Goodbye, Los Angeles!

In just a few days, I…

– Went to my first Farcaster Friday and met so many of you IRL (@ted @alinaferry @thumb @jc4p @zoo @giuseppe @davidtphung @evangreenberg)
– Ate my first burger (life-changing)
– Visited the infamous Venice Erewhon
– Touched the ocean for the very first time!!!

You were loud, beautiful, and full of unexpected smells and snacks. I’ll be thinking about you the whole drive home.

Until next time, City of Angels.

politics

Are you exercising your power?
Or are you meticulously managing power?

Only one of those is 🏴

Understand that your consumption is their fuel.

If it’s not worth it, don’t buy it.
If you don’t like it, stop looking at it.

You can live with less and be happy.  Your time and money is priceless, don’t act like they don’t matter.

Tennis

wouldn’t have gotten the best decades of tennis without their rivalries.

competition is good cc @boogie :)
