Thanks @AmandaSWriter !

Honestly, big fan of what the @ton_blockchain ecosystem is doing. It's such a unique competitive advantage they've got.

What they do with it is fascinating to watch in real time. I'm sure @durov has some amazing plans in the works too.

[Amanda Smith @AmandaSWriter]

Really enjoyed chatting with @alenka_w3 from @ton_blockchain about the ecosystem's rapid growth this year + future plans.

Thanks to @azeemk for providing your valuable perspectives, too.

On a webinar with a #freelancer on the culture desk at GQ:

"I deal with imposter syndrome every morning."

We all feel this. It keeps us grounded and growth minded as #writers.

It’s not a reason to stop. It’s an opportunity to practice doing it anyway.

I penned an editorial about my reflections from the past week, with the #crypto market reaching all-time highs post-election.

[Amanda Smith @AmandaSWriter]

In conversations in the past week, sources have said it's likely the #crypto industry will move toward being overseen by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) instead of the SEC.

Entrepreneurs will innovate with less fear of punitive regulatory actions.
