thank you for seeding the industry and bringing us together.

6/ To our industry guardians: For fighting, at this very moment, to protect this technology, our businesses, consumers and humanity from being smothered by hasty, short-sighted regulation that only serves legacy monopolies.

7/ To our 2000+ 🐙Krakenites in 50+ countries: For enlisting yourselves in a war. It's far from the easiest or cushiest job. You do the impossible. You rise to the occasion and teach me something new every single day. You are an inspiration. I'm honored to fight alongside you.

8/ To my co-founder: For trusting me, and for allowing me to trust you 100% with the insanely complex and scary technical side of the business. I can't imagine a better shadowy super coder to have as a partner. Only someone with loins of steel could have stayed the course.

9/ It's been a long road. 10 years on planet Crypto is 100 years on Earth. To survive, you have to get comfortable with discomfort. No two days are the same and surprises are around every corner. You plan for uncertainty and you plan to be attacked. Beyond that, all bets are off.
