Building & independence
An honest salary and building after work. Dated original source, with context and links.
MASTRThe original publications are in English. Navigation is available in seven languages.
Somewhere along the way, crypto convinced people that an honest salary is embarrassing and getting rich by dumping on strangers is an achievement.
I have more respect for someone working a full day and building something in the evenings than for a KOL whose entire fortune depends on followers buying after them.
If you’re raising a family, paying your bills and trying to improve your life without fucking anyone over, you deserve far more respect than this space gives you.
A small update from my side as a builder who often gets sidelined here, although maybe 2 or 3 people are actually interested.
But the thought of posting a product here, praising it, telling people how great it is and putting my name behind things I cannot fully control makes my skin crawl.
What disappoints me most about this space rn is how different the reality is from the opportunities everyone keeps talking about...or how it changed. That applies to building useful things too, not talking about trading.
