    Let’s talk about the 🐘 in the room -- burnout. I've been in the NFT space since late 2020, and full time degening since early 2021. Last week I experienced burnout for the first time, and I was thoroughly unprepared for it. A few personal thoughts πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡

    I just realised I could sell my Moonbirds now and finally buy a Bored Ape… but all of a sudden I don’t really want one anymore. Mad respect for my Ape brothers and sisters, but I think I was meant to be a Bird πŸ¦‰

    Assume your bags go down another 50-80%. Will you still be here? If so, why?

    Another weekend of insider trading and influencer pump & dumps in the NFT space. At this point I almost empathize with normies who believe our whole industry is a scam. We’re destroying trust and repelling new market participants. This doesn’t end well.

    One of the great paradoxes of NFTs is that you can be "doing well" and still experience a significant mental health burden. Becoming a GigaChad in the metaverse should never happen at the expense of becoming depressed & rundown IRL. A few thoughts πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡

    Like many people in this space, I'm a type A personality. - I (attempt to) multitask - I can't stand wasting time - I'm uber-competitive - I spend almost every waking hour "working" - I'm determined to succeed - Underachieving stresses me tf out Any of these ring a πŸ””?

    Over the past few days I’ve been max following πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί accounts. It’s honestly kind of inspiring to see how many of us there are in the global crypto/web3 community. If you’re an Aussie who’s active in this space & I’m not yet following you, let’s fix that 🀝

    Over the past 18 months I've neglected things like... - IRL frens - Exercise - Nutrition - Sleep - Mindfulness ...in favour of staring at anthropomorphized animals for ~14 hours a day. πŸ€” Turns out we can't just attempt to transcend our biology without incurring consequences.

    POV: You're a crypto-curious normie hearing about FTX for the first time. You start scrolling through twitter in an attempt to figure out what's going on. Initally you're impressed by the quality of commentary & analysis. But then something catches your eye...
