Most people have no idea what it actually takes to be a founder. They talk about vision, grit, or passion. Those words are props.
What you really sign up for is a life where every decision feels like it costs something real. You will spend years being misunderstood. By your team, your family, even the people you hire to help you. You will fail in public and still need to keep the energy up in private. Every founder lives with the weight of knowing that you can do everything right and still get crushed by luck, timing, or somebody elseโs mistake.
Founders arenโt braver than anyone else. They just get used to uncertainty, then stop waiting for clarity. Most of your wins wonโt feel like wins at all. The first revenue will be too small. The first team will outgrow you or leave. The first product that feels right will barely matter to the market. You will doubt yourself in private, sometimes every week. The founders who last figure out how to keep moving while the ground shifts underneath them.
Most outsiders want the founder badge but none of the scars. They want the upside, not the drag. The hardest part is sticking around after every plan gets blown up and you have to rebuild with less optimism and more scar tissue. What makes it work isnโt relentless hustle or some mythical trait. Itโs learning to make peace with constant discomfort, and then making decisions anyway.
If you need constant reassurance, youโll give up before the real work begins. If you want everyone to like you, youโll never make the calls that matter. If you canโt handle months where nothing feels certain, this life will eat you alive.
But if you can hold your own in chaos, get better at being wrong, and still want to show up and try again, you just might have a shot at building something that matters.
Thatโs what it actually takes. And nobody cares until you make it work.

unpopular opinion:
the phrase "i had no choice" is categorically false.
you can wake up every day and not choose violence. on any issue, under any circumstance, you always have this choice.
you essentially realize the potential outcome of this particular choice (i.e not choosing violence) is extremely l undesirable/unacceptable to you, so you go in the opposite direction (i.e. choosing violence).
but you are always actively and deliberately choosing.
@CryptoQuine the fact that you still are pending is just wrong.

literally the entire ecosystem can attest to this.
TL;DR: A dev machine of Safe was compromised. This allowed access to AWS and their S3 bucket. A malicious JavaScript was pushed to the bucket and eventually distributed. The malicious JS code targeted specifically the Bybit contract address. The JS code changes the content of the transaction during the signing process.
Bybit shared to investigation reports here: https://t.co/2E9KCeOKPf
