Most people want to understand Web3.
Very few actually do.
Why?
Because the information moves too fast. It feels too complex to keep up with.
It becomes overwhelming before it ever becomes interesting...🧵
Over 400k views with one question, should founders be doxxed?
That one question broke the internet for a whole weekend.
Thousands of opinions, real arguments, people coming out of nowhere with strong feelings on both sides.
Both sides made sense honestly.
But here's my take: if you're building something that needs to grow, convert, and earn loyalty in this space, hiding is not a strategy. Visibility is.
One thing I think people got wrong in that debate is confusing identity with integrity.
Being doxxed does not make you trustworthy and also being anonymous does not make you a threat. Your character does that.
Visibility gives people something to hold you accountable to, and in a space full of rugs and ghost devs, that accountability is worth more than any fine polished whitepaper.
The founders and builders winning right now are not always the most talented. They're the most known. People buy from them, follow them, and defend them because they already built the trust.
Your face, your story, your opinions, even your bad takes, that's your highest converting asset but most founders in this space are leaving it completely unused.

Your content is boring.
Nobody wants to read it.
Because you’re explaining the tech, not speaking to the reader.
They don’t care how it works.
They care what it does for them.
Fix that or you’ll forever be ignored.
2025 is almost over.
But before you start planning for next year, do pause and look back.
What actually worked for you this year?
What felt like work but got you nowhere?
Do more of what worked.
Drop what didn't.
Merry Christmas, CT
There’s a love-hate relationship between me and Christmas.
I love the family, the food, the drinks.
But I hate the work that comes with it, being the overseer of everything.
Please tell me I’m not the only one at this table.
Merry Christmas CT 🎄
