Seems kind of good potentially. More nitty-gritty involvement with the institutional machinery you live by means more annoyances but also less likelihood of passively putting up with long-run-catastrophic institutional policies.

Yeah. I find that the details of crypto bore the crap out of me. I don’t find it easy to learn crypto at all. But I do appreciate the “frontier” quality where you have to be a bit of a crypto nerd to participate at all.

Tbh the thing that bores me about law (crypto or otherwise) and finance is that I expect that 90%+ of everyone trying to explain it to me is lying or shilling their own product. Despite the replication crisis I still think that’s less true in natural science.

I'm having real trouble with this. Like, legitimately I want to figure out whether to bet on proof of stake or proof of work and there's no obvious place to go without a dog in the fight. Also because if someone doesn't bet, how much of an expert are they?
