Up until last year I was really upset that I never get invited to any of the Bitcoin Magazine conferences
Not in Nashville/Vegas, not in Amsterdam, not in Abu Dhabi
I used to write for BM, currently run one of the most popular podcasts & also produced competing magazines
Ironically, now I get invited to Ethereum conferences despite holding no ETH and not doing anything relevant for their community 🤷🏻♂️
But now I also understand the value of being counterculture and not selling out to the suits. While brushing shoulders with politicians and corporate CEOs can be educational, I feel more at home among idealistic nerds who want to change the world with their code.
Punk rock is not played in every large expo hall. And I like punk rock quite a lot.
