the hardest part about working in crypto in my experience is finding a partner that understands you’ll be gone half the year traveling for conferences
the hardest part about being a male founder.. in my experience is finding a girlfriend / partner that understands the short term gains that we are forgoing and the long-term optimization game that we are playing. most women expect to have most dates paid for, their vacations covered and their partner to have the time and emotional bandwidth to support them. somebody they see as a reliable provider. this is completely understandable. but as founders, every dollar saved is additional runway for the company. we budget down to the cent because our life’s work depends on it. every 100-hour work week slightly increases the odds of success. at this stage of life, we’re both cash-poor and time-poor — betting everything on the hope that one day, it all works out. that one day, we’ll be sitting on generational wealth — the kind most men only dream about. even for women who understand that they might be investing in their man long-term , it’s hard not to compare. their friends are dating guys with high-paying tech jobs, who work from 10 to 3 and can afford to give them a luxury experience now, not later. optimizing for the short term is human nature — it’s hard to fight against. to all the girlfriends out there dating early-stage founders — you’re the real ones. and to all my fellow founders: may you find your person while you still have nothing. Because that’s the only time you’ll know she’s with you for who you are, not what you have.

Every time I visit a classroom, I’m reminded why we’re building @piggywallet_app 🐷 Tech and financial education can truly change lives, and seeing that spark in students’ eyes is priceless. Excited to see them at the @JoinEdgeCity Hackathon this week 🚀
Yesterday our CPO @matut_eth visited a technical high school in San Martín de los Andes 🇦🇷 He shared how technology, savings, and financial education can empower the next generation, and invited students to join the upcoming @JoinEdgeCity Hackathon (Wed–Sun) 🚀 Bringing financial literacy closer to where builders are born💡

In Argentina, locals hold more BTC and stables than pesos. Thanks to @RamiroMenne for the insights on how @lemonapp_ar is driving real crypto adoption in Argentina 🇦🇷

I’m a bit tired of locals from Buenos Aires suggesting cards as the BEST alternative to paying here. They are wrong, but you might not care. Cards issued internationally (100% self-custodial crypto ccards, and some custodial too) use a FX rate that is way worse than just bringing cash and exchange at a FX store. Let’s put it into a test: Nov 3rd (today!) Sell USD at Official rate = 1450 I bought an empanada with crypto card @OfframpXYZ rate: 1374 Then I bought peanut butter and strawberry jam with crypto card with @gnosispay rate: 1429 (that was odd, the current rate is 1397) After that I exchanged USD cash at a neighbor “cueva” rate: 1425 And i use that cash at the coffee store that gives me 10% off for cash payment. Cash is king. And anyone telling you differently is oversimplifying it for you. Yes, dealing with cash is uncomfortable. And yes, it is riskier. So I don’t mind visitors using their card or their fancy new stablecoin QR payment (via 🧈.xyz) but let’s call things by its name. End of rant.

This thread dives deep into the reasons behind Argentina’s distinctive role and history in the blockchain ecosystem. A must-read before coming to Devconnect 🇦🇷🔗
0/ Devconnect is coming to Argentina in November. The country has a rich crypto history, so rich that it predates crypto itself. I'm @smpalladino, engineer at @aztecnetwork, based in 🇦🇷 - and here’s my take on what makes this country so unique 🧵

Mi vieja me dió la vida, pero @lain_calvo las ganas de vivirla. Ojalá todos pudiéramos amar nuestros trabajos un 1% de lo que lo hace Laín. Es de las personas que conozco que más creen y actúan desde su visión, y tengo el orgullo de decir que es mi amigo 🙌🏼❤️
Más allá de todo el quilombo con @crecimientoar hay que reconocer el laburo que están haciendo, especialmente @lain_calvo que hoy sábados 20:30 sigue pasando novedades por telegram. Siempre al pie del cañón (ya perdí la cuenta de la cantidad de veces que le pedí ayuda). Un grande que está haciendo MUCHÍSIMO por el ecosistema.

A veces me meto tanto en el trabajo que se me olvida algo simple pero enorme: esto que hago todos los días es el sueño que alguna vez solo imagine.
