I don’t see crypto as the key enabler of any of my ideas.

Have you thought about launching a fan token?

Futarchy has been around for a while, only until a few years ago has it started being implemented into organizations - only made possible by crypto. 

Perhaps Robin has not recognized the power of the hammer yet.

Disagree: the more I think about it, it seems like Futarchy wouldn’t be possible without crypto. 

I think there’s a reason it’s become so popular amoung this community. We will see.
