As a Bitcoin angel/seed investor I get a lot of investor updates from the startups in my portfolio. There are so many great Bitcoiners getting traction, making progress, generating revenue and creating value. Many of them are doing subsequent raises, some of them are on unicorn track. I get to have convos with people doing bitcoin as money, bitcoin as freedom tech, bitcoin as store of value, bitcoin as public markets speculative attack, bitcoin as a platform, and more. Grateful for being able to live a meaningful life and having followed the Orange path so early. As an entrepreneur I had imposter syndrome, was always trying to keep up with the latest marketing hack or trend, and experienced a lot of burnout and pivoting. Always finding new partners, etc. As a Bitcoiner I still suffer from activity bias, and pivot a lot, but bitcoin remains constant - and it’s my conviction in bitcoin alone that has made me succeed. I have always been inspired to be helpful and back good people - even when I was poor. I’s really easy to do that when we speak the common language of ₿. ₿itcoin gave me ₿reathing room. Thankful for my small role in bitcoin, lucky to have such high signal friends and shocked to be the source of inspiration for people who tell me they follow me and I changed their lives 🧡 🫂
