VCs with inflated egos and valuations continuing with fiat-as-normal, acting like the Silicon Valley Bank collapse was a fluke. Crypto VCs with fiat mentality trying to invest in companies that can "beat Bitcoin."
Actually, Bitcoin is a tool for founders to escape from the pressure of hyper growth and build holistic and sustainable companies. If investors want to participate, they must do so with healthy detachment.

Yesterday, I saw the podcast by @nprofile…0lt0 and @nprofile…h5hs and then later we were chatting IRL in the span of a few minutes. Nostr is so real for this, and I actually physically know most of the people I follow. The networks we're building online are only as good as the offline vibes and makes me want to participate more.
We were talking about how to bring more creativity into this space.
✨ I'm going to be on the BFTA podcast in a few weeks talking about my artist journey. A few things on my mind:
- What constitutes success online? In this era of bots and copycat accounts, it's not # of followers. The success metric has to be *real life* collaborations and mutual support.
- Why create content? I think we can only see ourselves through the mirror of our own creations. The goal is not to preach to others or sell anything, but rather to create an immaculate reflection of yourself, in order to know yourself.
- The hardest one: what to share and what not to share? What is dignified in privacy and what is exalted in being shared? I honestly don't know.
- One thing I know for sure is that I have never and will never use AI to write my copy (or music.) Call me a granny but I believe in quality.
I'm ending a year long social media hiatus which involved deleting all my big tech accounts. Being visible (or not) is one of the big questions of my life but I'm ready to give it a try once more, without performance.

Hi Nostr. I'm brand new here - I'm developing an entirely new model of #venture seed investing - one based on Bitcoin treasuries and regenerative and decentralized values.
My background is in 15+ years of social enterprise acceleration and grassroots work across the world. I'm driven by the new paradigm that we're birthing and stewarding.
