My husband has a smart email system but it's so awkward every time 😂
Hotel: "What's your email?"
Husband: "It's [his name]+[hotel name]"
Hotel: "Whoa your email has the hotel name in it?!"
Husband: "That’s so I know if you're selling my data"
Hotel: "Oh" *avoids eye contact*

- Converting old childhood photos to Studio Ghibli and sending to my parents :)
- Random but I bought one of those pricey red light masks since heard it's good for your skin. I've been using it 5x per week for 6 weeks and it's improved my skin noticeably with unexpected side effect of growing my lashes a lot. One of the best self care purchases I've ever made
- I put together a list of beginner's guide articles I've written on various cryptoassets. The ones I've covered so far are Ethereum, Ethereum tokens, Monero, Litecoin, 0x, Tezos, Bitcoin Cash, Decred, and Zcash. More to come!
- My beginner's guides on DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and social tokens: - DeFi (Jan 2020) nakamoto.com/beginners-guid… - NFTs (Jan 2021) linda.mirror.xyz/df649d61efb92c… - DAOs (Mar 2021) linda.mirror.xyz/Vh8K4leCGEO06_… - Social tokens (Nov 2021) linda.mirror.xyz/4PDBWBMpFFPVEs…
- Crypto has got to be the only space where even people whose full-time job is to keep up with it feel perpetually behind
- Consolidating the beginner’s guides I've written on DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs which are 3 very important areas in crypto to learn about! - DeFi (Jan 2020) nakamoto.com/beginners-guid… - NFTs (Jan 2021) linda.mirror.xyz/df649d61efb92c… - DAOs (Mar 2021) linda.mirror.xyz/Vh8K4leCGEO06_…
- 5 books that crypto people often recommend: 1. Sapiens 2. The Sovereign Individual 3. Cryptonomicon 4. Antifragile 5. Debt: The First 5,000 Years
- I'd love to get more women interested in cryptocurrencies. I'm setting aside time each week for a 1:1 call with women who are new to the space and have questions. Each month I'll share highlights on topics discussed so others with the same questions can learn too. DMs are open!
- My friend in SF told a guy she was seeing that it wasn't going to work out and he asked to run through a post-mortem together about it
- "The bee doesn't waste its time trying to convince the fly that honey is better than shit."
- Spoke with one bank about getting a mortgage. The guy said my cryptocurrency holdings are the equivalent of holding marijuana so I don't think they are going to give me a mortgage 🙃
- Deleted my Facebook and Instagram and now I just find myself spending that extra time on Twitter 🙃
