You know what's beautiful about crypto? Everyone in tech hates crypto. I really don't care. Tech has an elitist view of the world, where only certain people may participate in the game. But crypto is an inefficient and risky market with upside for the average person. A lot of random people got wealthy off Bitcoin in having conviction. But the average person cannot capture upside from investing in Anthropic or OpenAI. My favorite line from jackson
