I'm a trans nonbinary crypto/web3 founder, and the toxic environment of tradtech couldn't be any less appealing.
We're not building with your SV tech morals; we're literally replacing you - tradtech is bound to lose.
If you're trans/gnc, quit your tradtech job and come thru.

in the aftermath, i almost gave up on entropy. i thought i would never recover, i thought i couldn’t be a leader because leaders don’t get sexually assaulted. i thought a million lies about myself.

i will, again, voice my concern and frustration for those blindly supporting pro-crypto politicians (especially in support of some vapid “mission”).
many of them are entirely hostile to minorities and social/civil rights. i have made it clear, the cost to LGBTQIA folks is v high

the reason free market anti capitalism is so hard to conceptualize for the average person is because they’ve spent their entire life _coerced_ into specific markets (e.g. the housing market) without the ability to participate fairly.

our role as builders in the crypto ecosystem is to offboard large scale components of the nation-state’s economy to the borderless crypto economy.
the goal is to ensure that the state is subservient to a decentralized, borderless economy; an economy untamperable by state power.

if you build a protocol or mechanism that only functions correctly when everyone is well-behaved, you did not build an anti-fragile protocol or mechanism.
if you incentivize it, people will do it.
this was crypto 101 years ago, and it seems the space is losing sight of this.

in tradtech, if ur able to bullshit urself eloquently in a meeting, they call u “distinguished”
in crypto, we just kick u from the discord. problem solved. capital efficient.
The cryptography that is in 'crypto' is merely enough to serve as a foundation myth of mathematical purity and incorruptibility. It is a blinding lustered talisman used as privatized statecraft to support empires of scams. It is not actually good cryptography. A small thread.

i’m not afraid to burn bridges over this. i will do everything in my power to fight for and preserve the safety of myself and the rest of the trans community.
Trans is a mental health epidemic: Every serious leader should say so without apology. It is not humane to “affirm” the confusion of those who are mentally ill.

doesn’t say much unless we know more about the password.
20 chars, depending on many things, can still be low entropy.
Someone points out that it could be as low as 65 bits of entropy.
best advice is to memorize a random string of letters, numbers, and symbols.

you are forced to work in a wage-labor system for money that only enables you to participate in a state-controlled market.
we are beginning an era where we are now able to opt-out of this system. yes, we are exceptionally early. yes, the state is terrified of this.

the demands for “mass adoption” of this alternative economy is the demand to coerce this paradigm into the state-sanctioned economic violence we already face.

if queer and trans folks say anything remotely abrasive about some of our negative experiences (or call out horrific behavior), we are denigrated as toxic or dramatic.
meanwhile, the crypto boys club gets to be transphobic and homophobic essentially guilt-free.
