Why is it so hard for me to get crypto culture? I get lots of communities easily, get a good sense of their norms and landscape, but for some reason I have repeatedly failed at this with crypto, despite having e.g. held crypto for 7 years, worked on an ico and been to devcon. 1/

There's something about crypto that feels anti the way I typically learn, and I don't know exactly what it is. I have trouble "feeling" it like I feel other vaguely technical skills I've learned, like webflow or survey design. It's pretty disappointing cause I really love crypto.

There's a bizarre and extreme disconnect between the math-geek/cypherpunk roots of crypto and the current crypto scene focused mainly on pump-and-dump and token price speculation. Current crypto scene is a sort of manic dysphoria fueled by this dissociative identity disorder.

It's because the vast majority of cryptocurrency ventures are cons that don't actually make sense.

Because you're trying to actually learn when most people are just trying to get rich quick. There are good resources for people who genuinely want to learn, and good people too. But they aren't as popular as the famous cheerleaders.

I'm always happy to chat about crypto off the record. Feel free to DM me questions. I'll never judge or shame.
