Less Trading, More Time
I have been doing less trading because, while it is quick & easy to know when I want to buy, that buy action comes batched together with the need to watch and sell smartly if I want to do well. And I don't really like watching charts or figuring out when to sell. It feels like a waste of my time relative to the opportunity cost of working on my own projects for example. So as tempting as it is to buy tokens when I see them and think they are going to go up in the hours/days to come, I have tr...

The Most Important Link on the Internet
What's the most important link on the internet today? There's no obvious answer to that question. At least, there is no global consensus. But doesn't it seem like an important question? > What's the most important link on the internet today? That's effectively the most important thing in the world. On that given day. So what if we could actually know what it was? Well, maybe we can. For the last year, I've been building @qrcoindotfun. It's a daily auction for attention. Any number of people f...

Becoming a Net Producer
You are a net producer when the content you create is consumed for more time than you spend consuming content yourself. The level up from there is when the content you create is consumed at a faster rate than you are living (i.e. if I get two one-hour podcast plays per hour). The level beyond that is when all of the content you have created has been consumed for more time than you have been alive in all. Assuming an 80 year life that is about 700,000 hours. Consider that Joe Rogan gets about ...

Personal Finances Update // Betting on Farcaster
I reviewed my personal finances this morning. This is something that I've done on a monthly basis for the last several years. I originally started doing it because I had recently quit my job in investment banking and found myself constantly concerned with how much money I had left in the bank and how fast I was burning through it. I found that a once monthly review was frequent enough to free me from the feeling that I needed to worry about my finances more generally outside of that brief tim...

Working for your bags
"Working for your bags" is mostly a myth. People's bags are filled with hundreds, even thousands of coins. It is impractical for them to do anything for all of them, and most people don't end up doing anything for any of them. But we have thousands of holders working for their bags every day with $QR, because we have made it interesting, profitable, and as easy as possible. I will explain how in the order in which I believe they are important. 1. AS EASY AS POSSIBLE - we ask users to take 1 a...
