El arte de no pensar en el trabajo fuera del horario laboral.
Proteger nuestro tiempo también significa poner límites. No todo tiene que justificarse por la productividad. Incluso los momentos en los que no hacemos nada tienen valor.

¡Hola! Empecé en Substack desde Japón y ando con un poco de nervios.
Ojalá nos leamos mutuamente y pueda conectar más con la comunidad hispanohablante.
¿Se pasan a leer? 🇯🇵✨ #substack

Magic Eden's communication regarding the shutdown of their Ordinals and Runes marketplace has been the worst I have ever seen
Two days before they plan to make the announcement there is an internal leak that lets a crypto journalist front run it which takes away their ability to control the narrative
Then they make their official announcement except it completely lacks empathy for the Bitcoin community who believed in them for the past 3 years and for the engineers, designers, and product managers who spent years of their life building these marketplaces
The cherry on top was they then tried to increase the engagement of their shutdown announcement (which is already a very weird thing to want to do) by paying Ethereum influencers to FUD Ordinals and Runes in quote posts of the announcement
A week passes with zero communication and then all of a sudden a day before the shutdown Magic Eden secretly jacks up the fees on their Ordinals marketplace to twist the knife a bit more
Then finally today they silently remove Ordinals and Runes from their website but there is again zero communication on X about it
My timeline is full of Ordinals and Runes degens cursing out Magic Eden
For example $DOG and Runestone traders paid ~$10M in fees to Magic Eden and many of us directed people to use their platform and now everyone I talk to says they regret ever using Magic Eden
I also see hundreds of posts of angry $ME token holders who are down 99% but aren't allowed to unstake
The lesson in all of this is to take communication seriously
Given how volatile the crypto space is people are actually very understanding when a company has to shut down a product due to running out of money or market conditions because it happens all the time
But you have to communicate and at least try to make it appear like you care about your users and employees a little
Myself and many others were planning on having Magic Eden part ways with Bitcoin on good terms as I do genuinely believe they provided a lot of value to this ecosystem especially in the early days by delivering a reliable, trusted product when others weren't able to however now I just have a bad taste in my mouth and I'm happy that they are leaving and think we are much better off without them now that we see their true colors
