🎙️ Wrapping up 2025 and feeling grateful for the amazing guests on /decent-voices! I had the pleasure of interviewing some of the best people in web3.
In 2026, expect new formats and niches, brand collabs, and even more fresh voices!
We’re building trust in a trustless era, together as a community, connected by a shared belief in healthy product culture.
Celebrate with Decentralized Voices!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🎄❤️
🎧🔥 Premiere on /decent-voices: The episode with @ericakang, founder of KryptoPlanet and General Partner at BlackDragon Capital.
Erica is a community-agnostic leader recognized for her business leadership and public presence. There are a lot of ideas you can learn from her.
🔗 Enjoy the convo by the links below, and share it with friends interested in building careers in decentralized tech.
Being negative is cheap. Saying "everything is going to be worse" makes you sound like a realist.
Saying "something good is possible here" can make you sound dumb or privileged.
Let's be clear on what optimism ISN'T:
- "good vibes only" while ignoring injustice
- gaslighting yourself into gratitude when you're exhausted
So how to build real optimism?
- focus on today, this week, this month; not the next decade
- separate what's true from what your fear is predicting
- save evidence of progress: screenshots of kind messages, good feedback, small wins (this helps me!)
- listen to what your people say about you, especially when you can't see your own growth
I won't tell you to "just think positive". That's insulting, and I don't believe in ideas without action.
But optimism can keep you moving when fear wants you frozen. It can give you a reason to invest your time and energy in things that aren't guaranteed, like relationships or new projects.
In late 2025, that seems like enough 🩷

women in web3 lack role models, but today I interviewed for /decent-voices someone whose path and vision are close to me
we’re both:
- foreigners in English-speaking environments who started in web3 in 2017
- driven by mission and values, not speculation or “free money”
- always doing our best with what we have
- refusing to gender careers, we simply respect professionals
- sometimes overanxious, but it usually pays in better results
- married to Ukrainian men in crypto
guess who this wonder woman is?
The main idea of the @shefi Warsaw Christmas 🎄 edition is to reflect on the miracles and challenges we experienced in 2025 and prepare for the year ahead.
At the event, we’ll hear from inspiring speakers from top web3 teams and ask the guests what had the biggest impact on them this year.
Expect a cozy, welcoming atmosphere where you can be yourself and share your experiences with peers ⭐️
