As I’m working on the frontend of this miniapp, I’m realizing how much really goes into being a builder. I’m doing the most basic, bare-minimum lifts… and I’ve been nontechnical my whole life. It feels like someone who appreciates and understands music, but can’t play a single instrument. Takeaways so far: > I’m starting to understand why devs/engineers clown nontechnical CSMs & AEs for their “dumb” questions. > Eng ppl need to be a little OCD and rely on a ton of memorization. > Eng ppl are very matter of fact. They don’t love explaining how to do certain things because the answers are already right in front of you.. it’s on you to figure it out, just like they did. The more I do this the more I understand their personalities. Bless their hearts for being patient w/ ppl that are nontechnical.

One startup I had on the @startupradar pod I rarely see mentioned on the FC or Base TL is @fluidkey. The privacy element makes it one of the slickest / most seamless protocols I have used in the last 3 yrs. After having @moritz on the show, I promised to try all of its features and if I liked it I’d go all in. This is me stating that I am all in. So far, I have: • Linked my Chase account • Wired part of my 9-5 paycheck straight in (auto converts to USDC and starts earning interest instantly) • Sent funds from @fluidkey back to Chase, converting stables to USD with minimal (if any) cost within ~1-3 days (*you can link ANY bank account to wire USDC and convert to USD or EUR…) It has eliminated the need for CEXs. The fees are negligible compared to the big dogs, and most importantly it is private. I put my wallet address into Basescan and saw nothing. Assets do not appear. They’re using blockchain / DeFi the way it was intended to be used… And yet, no one is talking about them. NFA DYOR but holy 💩 👁️ ♥️ 💧 🔑
