đśď¸ open letter
crypto was born downstream of people refusing to stay quiet & accept status quo. itâs one of our core values.
you simply canât say youâre crypto-forward while centralizing the power around yourself and then delegitimizing crypto communityâs voice like an inconvenience & removing access points.
âmany such casesâ have shown that groupthink doesnât create progress. surrounding yourself with yes-men limits your perspective + creates tunnel vision. it isnât pragmatic and/or scalable.
if you want to grow within the crypto ecosystem, you have to:
*put your ego aside. listen + learn from your community
*stop treating negative feedback as âopportunity for exitâ
*stop discriminating against the voices you donât want to hear from
and if you canât do these, at least stop gaslighting.
this means you are no different than the systems we wanted to change in the first place and our right to exit remains.
weâll keep watching the consequences unfold.
