Many #investors approach crypto with no #real #strategy. They follow hype cycles, driven by fear and greed, with little understanding of what they’re supporting. But what if investing in #crypto isn’t about short-term #profit, but about shaping the kind of future we want to #build?
#Blockchain is a neutral tool. It can enable #surveillance and #control, or foster #decentralization and trust. The real strategy is to #invest with intention; and help steward a new #paradigm.
i guess "god's wrath will throw fire upon the sodomites" is what passes for a #libertarian take in 2025, because this is one of the main guys trying to build the #NetworkState.
(he's the CEO of #Praxis, "the world's first digital nation" that's funded by a lot of the crypto bros including Peter Thiel, #Balaji, Joe Lonsdale, the #Winklevoss twins, #Paradigm (big crypto fund), a #Worldcoin guy, and a bunch of others). cc: @gilduran.com @gilduran

A handy list of large crypto donors to Trump’s inauguration fund, which is basically an unregulated pot of money the president can do whatever he wants with. A few translations are in order:

* Foris Dax = Crypto[.]Com
* Fred Ehrsam = #Paradigm (and co-founder of Coinbase)

* #KyleSamani = #MulticoinCapital
* #HaydenAdams = #Uniswap (more on Uniswap: https://cryptadamus.substack.com/p/of-tech-bros-and-trumpers)
* Charles Cascarilla = #Paxos, the stablecoin issuer behind the #Binance stablecoin #BUSD that was summarily executed by regulators for #moneylaundering

Paraphrased: "If it's not useful and #accessible to the #poor and #disabled, it's neither #radical nor #revolutionary"
The U.S., and most of the "West" / #GlobalNorth, no longer has a radical or revolutionary mindset.
Neither #VentureCapital nor #HedgeFunds have or can deliver bold, #innovative results, only #vampiric variations on what exists.
Until that #paradigm is demolished, we can't hope to build the new #world we all desperately need.
