You didn’t come to crypto to be jaded. You didn’t hold the line when the world called you insane just to let doubt creep in now. You didn’t suffer through the wreckage of FTX, the frauds, the forks, the failures just to sit here and sulk.

Yes, you had wins. Yes, you lost them. Some of you made it, some of you got wrecked. Maybe you should’ve played it differently. Maybe you should’ve sold the top. But that’s not why we’re here.

Look around you. You are not alone. We are not some scattered, broken group of traders and builders lost in a sea of noise. We are a movement. We are a force.

We have fought, we have bled, we have sacrificed. We have watched cycles rise and fall like empires, yet we remain. We have seen our dreams dismissed as scams, our ideals mocked as delusions, our visions stolen by the very institutions we sought to replace. And yet, we remain.
