Iโm not here to ruin anyoneโs career, so I wonโt name names.
After 5 years in Web3, founding two companies, interviewing countless candidates, and leading teams of 500+, I just had the worst hiring experience of my career.
I want to share this as a lesson and warning.
To the young people in Web3: youโre in one of the best industries in the world in terms of compensation. At just 20-something, youโre earning salaries north of $200Kโhigher than many in traditional sectors like tech, finance, PE/VC, consulting, etc.
The entry barriers are lower, your work is easier, and you get to travel the world for events. Life seems easy, and the millionaire dream feels just within reach.
But, thatโs created a problem. Thereโs now a group of individuals in Web3 with average skills and sky-high expectations. They think they can have it all, without loyalty to their projects.
They jump from job to job, even working for multiple companies at once, all while pretending to be fully committed to each. The salaries they demand are way out of line with their actual contributions and effort.
At Morph, weโre always looking for the best talent in the market. But, integrity and honesty are non-negotiable.
No matter how talented someone is, without these values, they wonโt last on our team. People say Web3 and crypto are full of scamsโand honestly, sometimes weโre hesitant to even mention our work outside of the industry. This is because too many bad actors have caused damage.
Morph will launch its own token in the future, and investors will be trusting us with their money. As the backbone of this project, our team must be composed of the most trustworthy individuals. Myself, Azeem, and every single team member cannot afford to act unethically or compromise investor trust.
I know these words may not sound glamorous in Web3, but building a solid blockchain is a long and challenging mission.
Weโre looking for people who share these values to join us.
By the way, weโre hiring! :)

WoW joins the Tezos ecosystem
Since the launch of our first collection nearly three years ago, WoW has championed the representation of women in the next era of the web. Yam's vision for building an inclusive future has guided everything we do.
Today, we announce a bold step to expand our reach and impact by joining the @tezos ecosystem.
Tezos, co-founded by trailblazing woman Kathleen Breitman @breitwoman, provides the ideal infrastructure for us to unite and amplify the power of women in the digital age. Expanding from community to economy, we now set out to build an ecosystem where women can receive resources for their visions, support among peers, and access to opportunities and experiences made possible by the WoW brand and its prominent partner network. We believe the future is bright with women at the forefront.ย #TheTimeisWoW
Join us today, at 12:30pm ET on our Discord to discuss this announcement with WoW's leadership team.

โA man is appointed, and itโs clear why. A woman has to prove it was worth appointing her.โ - Iris Knobloch, Cannes President.
At WoW, weโre driving change in representation. Weโre proud to have been invited by @BMW for Cannes 2024, as they have been driving and championing women in tech, art, and culture for over 50 years.
This year, BMW granted us VIP access to the red carpet and a special event with Naomi Campbell and Hans Zimmer โจ
Guests witnessed the exclusive reveal of the BMW XM Mystique Allure, dedicated to the timeless Naomi Campbell.
Our community mingled with industry leaders and created connections that inspire new horizons.
BMW's exclusive invitation to WoW signals the recognition of WoWโs mission and a shared dream to see more women at the forefront of innovation, building tech for a more inclusive future.
At @worldofwomennft, we grew our Instagram by 20% in 1 month, after plateauing for 1 year.
After stagnating at 80k followers, we changed our strategy from telling people what we do to creating content that adds value to the lives of our target audience: trailblazing women.
Hereโs how we made the switch, the impact itโs had, and whatโs coming next for WoW content ๐
