My reply to Kevin Owocki who understandably, laments what was #EthDenver and the industry's changing vibe in a recent post on X. (He is a visionary with new ways of governing that has been a leading contributor to unifying the ETH developer ecosystem with Gitcoin and the many grants their foundation provided. Get past Maxi and start reading about quadratic funding and new ways to gain consensus/lead. Bitcoin can leverage these models.)

I feel it too. I sometimes (rarely Bitcoin because few VCs fund it:)) attend events from Thailand to Miami that feel the way San Francisco did during the dot com boom. Similar to the #NFT brovado :).
It's a combo of #euphoria, #gluttony, #speed, and #glitter. Like a sugar rush with little substance and lots of #VCspend.
I know many of us chose this path for the promise of #decentralization and #freedomofexpression. We chose it for #privacy, for #newgovernance, for creating the next more beautiful world.
You've put so much effort into your projects. #2022 was heartbreaking for #advancedtech and loving teams that suffered from the rape and pillage of an industry created by degens that wanted another way.
I can imagine it is hard to see another #memecoin distract from the purpose.
Yet it is all possible. We are just getting started.
I've been through lots of #boomandbust at the hands of the unconscious. Yet, we are waking up now and we will have #AI, #Blockchain, and #emergingtech to guide the way with loving arms.
I'm in service to #Bitcoin now as I feel it is #source #energy. And, there are other projects like Verus that can amplify the goodness in #Bitcoin and your projects.
Remember why we created #forums and #community. The #tech was our excuse to be together...
To build...to rise.
I'll miss #EthereumDenver as I'm far away, yet I spent 23 years in the #startupecosystem in #Colorado. I know who you are and what you feel like.
Go with the intention that you will find your sisters and your brothers and you will exhale and breathe together.
Remember what our community feels like.
WE ARE #GIVEFIRST.
We own that #Ethos. We are the feeling of #welcome. Look past the distractions, the #shitcoins, and #vaporware.
Find each other. Remember why you came to #tech, #startups, #web3, even #ETH.
You believed in something, and your #sacredheart led you. Let it lead again. Find each other, and let's build this more beautiful world.
All of us, together.

**funny the AI captured how few women there were back then. Accurate. I think I've also trained him to love Bitcoin:).
