@BowTiedWaterDog @hsinju @sanfordheisler retarded bootlicker slop 😹

[Hsin-Ju @hsinju]

1/ gm. gm. Name is Hsin-Ju.
I have a dark, kinda tragic personal announcement.

I've decided I'd rather take $0 than accept a settlement that requires me to stay silent about what happened to me. I have since fired my lawyers at @sanfordheisler & will be releasing all the evidence from my time @hack_vc on Wed 8/26.

INTRO: I've been in crypto for 9 years. Most recently I was a partner & head of platform @hack_vc which is a $600-700M crypto VC firm. Many of you may know me from my time as Head of Growth at @StellarOrg in 2017 (worked w/ the Mt. Gox founder), @Solana in 2018 (joined under ~10 ppl, but quit before my cliff), & @Fhenix in 2024. Or have attended one of my @DystopiaLabs ETH events (2019-now).

Last year, I was forced to work through a serious medical emergency while at @Hack_VC due to threats by @alpackaP @dbulaevsky, saying that they would blacklist me from the space if I quit before finishing the hacksummit conference & side events that I was helping with during @kbwofficial. I was working 13-14hr days, 6 days a week, sleeping 0-4 hrs a night, and had documented Graves' disease, hyperthyroidism, and severe insomnia. I repeatedly asked to quit. Hack VC refused. This + other threats and intimidation went on for almost a month.

The conditions got so bad I attempted suicide.

The fucked up part is that, even after the suicide attempt, I told everyone at Hack VC (in writing) that I had no plans to sue. I was scared & extremely sick. I just wanted to leave. I told them that as long as there was no retaliation or badmouthing - I had no plans to sue.

@Hack_VC chose to retaliate.

After just 1 month after my near suicide, Hack VC mishandled my COBRA health insurance, refused to fix things, kept shooing me to customer support (when it's legally Hack VC's responsibility to fix this), and my insurance had issues and was not fixed for almost 4 MONTHS. Hack VC did not fix everything until I hired lawyers and had them force Hack VC to adhere to the law & fix my COBRA insurance issues. The sheer cruelty of an employer harming someone's health insurance almost immediately after they nearly committed suicide is extremely fucked up.

And, even during the legal engagement, Hack VC continued to lie & attempt to harm me through their lawyers and other employees/partners (multi-million dollar carry & clawbacks can make even the nicest ppl willing to turn the other way or lie). @0xRodney @IsTheBaron @roshunpatel @Alex__Botte.

Now. Almost an entire year of engagement & my near suicide anniversary coming up, our lawyers (mine & Hack VC's) have reached the point of preparing for private mediation and settlement. And...I realized that I just can't do it. I don't want money in exchange for silence. I'd rather speak.

I fired my lawyers yesterday.

In case it needs to be said, I did a good job at Hack VC. I was only there full time for 7 months; been part-time since 2021. I got a $50k raise to $300k, $30k bonus, and promises of additional carry that would have been implemented about a week or so after my last day. I was also offered admission into the GP entity (but not sure if admission was actually completed bc it was during my medical emergency). This + my resume, should show that me suing is not a money grab; I was genuinely harmed.

I'm aware that I'm just one person (who is not rich) facing a $600-700M VC institution. I've been told by @alpackaP that he's known most of the managing partners at most VC firms for almost a decade and he could absolutely blacklist me.

I'm also painful aware that the conclusion of this will probably be extremely poor for me or death - but I've accepted it.

Sharing with other web2 & web3 VCs:
@paulg @ycombinator @500STARTUPS @a16zcrypto @PanteraCapital @dragonflyvc @RaceCapital @hosseeb @haunventures @hiFramework @ElectricCapital @blockchaincap @Delphi_Digital @variantfund @1kxnetwork @archetypevc @shimacapital @robotventures, etc.

TLDR; I’m done with continued threats, pressure, and intimidation. I'm not going to take a payout and allow Alex or Hack VC to walk away from harming me. As mentioned, I'll be dropping the evidence from my case on Wed 8/26 (or before) -- privacy be damned.

In secret, Silicon Valley & venture capital stresses “AuDHD” as an ‘optimal human cognition stack’.

SLMs and agent swarms uncover a deeper truth within cognitive science: the synthesis of “AuDHD” + “DID” as a 'complete' form of cognition to model "AI".

Surprisingly, even for someone who once failed calculus, implementing a mathematical crypto paper isn’t as impossible as it sounds.

At first it feels daunting: a paper by brilliant PhDs I’m lucky to work with, full of overloaded letters and strange symbols (^, ~, ′). Feeling lost at the start is normal.
The mindset that helped me:
👉 You don’t need to prove why it works right away, just know what each step does.

Kickoff
Let the experts explain the theory. Build a common language. Don’t chase the “why” on day one, if the spec says add x and y, trust it’s there for a reason.

Cheat Sheet
Write a slim summary in your own words. Drive the discussion, ask every question, and make each step crystal clear. No dumb questions.

Validation Points
Crypto algorithms are tough to validate until the very end. Break that rule. Add checkpoints along the way so you know exactly where things break.

Quick Demo
Before “proper” engineering, hack together a scrappy version in your easiest language. Make it run, confirm you understand.

Ship
Now you’re shockingly well-prepared to build the clean, efficient version.

Bonus
By the time you finish, you’ll realize you do understand the “why.” Not PhD-level but enough to feel like you’ve conquered something you once thought impossible.

And here I am: two weeks after thinking threshold decryption was pure voodoo I’d never deeply understand… I’ve reimplemented the entire protocol and I actually know why it works the way it does

in the eth space, we largely consider privacy a meme.

however, most people care about privacy w/o realizing. I teach intro cybersec camps to youth, and use this diagram to show how we like keep certain info private.

try filling it out yourself!
