I open warpcast and a bunch of people just tag me on tax related casts. I am becoming the taxman.

For 2 years, we maniacally focused on our onchain integrations. Bc of that, Awaken was US only. Now it's time to expand. We added Canada last week. Next week, we're releasing beta support for the UK 🇬🇧 If you want to try it out, send me a DM!

Whenever I talk to smart people. They always get to the point super fast. They basically rapid fire collect information. And then get to the meat. I felt this recently when I chatted with @dwr.eth 😂 I want to get better at this.

We rolled out Canada 🇨🇦 support a few days ago. Just crossed our first $10k of revenue for that market. If you are from Canada and want to try it (big discount) let us know. Always taking feedback.

I went to a Dr appointment and she asked me if I worked more than 60 hours a week. I told her I only work 60 hours on my weeks off 😂 She didn’t laugh, but she did seem concerned.

People outside of crypto think it’s a scam. I keep hearing this. It’s tiring. No technology is bad or good. Flint & steel creates fire that can destroy a house or burn you. But also can cook food or keep you warm. Blockchains can be used to scam. Or they can be money Legos to build a better financial system. I prefer the later.

Awaken isn't perfect but... We're confident enough to show you the % of your transactions we found cost basis for right at the top. Our competitors hide this. Bc their % is much lower. We avg 99%+ found basis across 20k+ users.

I don’t think there’s anyone else that stays up til 2am consistently… To try to make crypto taxes easier 😂 Got some oddly rude messages today (yesterday) about Awaken being bad. But decided to ignore and keep shipping 🚢

A big competitor wanted to buy Awaken ~18mo ago. They said if we didn't sell, they'd stick a team of 50 engineers copying every single thing we did. They still haven't caught up... Turns out being hungry & scared is a good motivator 🥲

Very few CPAs understand crypto at all. Awaken has a list of some CPAs / bookkeepers / EAs who do. It's free and here: https://awaken.tax/cpas If you want an intro let me know. We make ZERO on affiliates, we only recommend people who are actually good (no kickback).

I've personally refunded & given away ~$70k+ of Awaken this year (aka 2x my annual salary). If you ask for a discount. You always get it. I want to give users discounts SO badly. I literally tell you to message me in our UI lol.

Founders always want to go faster. In the last few months we've... - shipped a ton + launched new chains - raised $1M+ - 1M+ organic impressions - bunch of partnerships - started to hire and I'm not even close to satisfied with the speed.

I know these rewards are meant to go to noobs like me so it gets me hooked on posting. And even then, it's working. Just adding points to something immediately makes you want to juice it lol

It’s time. Canada support is coming. For 2 years, we’ve been asked by more users than I can count. And now we have an engagement letter with a great Canadian CPA. Time to support the 52nd US state 🇨🇦

I was on a call with a user at 1am yesterday. By 4am I had the fix out and applied to their account. That’s customer obsession. It’s hard but that’s what makes Awaken somewhat good. Now just have to do that with another dozen people 😝
