This is the year Farcaster goes ultra-mainstream and regular people (e.g. my mom) start using it. Why? Because a new app/product will figure out how to leverage the existing social graph to quickly launch, scale, and monetize in a few weeks. AI will shorten the iteration cycle, and it'll amplify everything. And, perhaps, because a specific topic will find a home here that doesn't have a home somewhere else. Maybe a specific fan club or a corner of tech. Who knows - maybe the next watering hole for politics that can't be censored like other platforms.

IQ and curiosity are not the same thing, but probably strongly correlated. If I had to pick one — I think I pick curiosity. Such a superpower.

I’m writing down a list of tips/behaviors for high performance operating. E.g. Close the loop. If you say you’re going to do something — do it. And then tell the person you did it.” What are your best high-performance operating behaviors?

I'm looking for the *best* designer that wants to help shape tools and products for the entire crypto industry. I'm open to folks who want to chat -- either as candidates or for networking purposes. Who should I talk with?

The crypto ecosystem is so small ... your reputation goes very very far. When recruiting for certain roles, particularly senior/exec and highly specialized technical roles ... the real strategy is to just network your way to the elite talent and nerdsnipe them on your problem space.

My experience so far: - Demand for web3 talent is up through Q1. - Most open roles: product/eng/design and GTM (BizDev + marketing). - Supply of talent entering web3 is flat; web2 talent hard to attract. The next 3-6 months will be a slog until crypto gets back into mainstream and we see an influx of new talent.
