I do .I know it will be fucking hard and one has to be very focus to be successful.
Harder than designing and carrying on Bitcoin consensus changes or mastering security of second-layers, I don’t know time will tell.
Building a hedge fund, a lot of math, physics and hard engineering challenges and working with smart and interesting people daily, all what I appreciate. Even more interesting if all assets trade can be bitcoin-native. Financial success more a metric of achievement and staying on track, journey matters over outcome.
Ultimately, Bitcoin is a lot about financial autonomy and self-sovereignty. Building a successful business is one of the best way to achieve those values, and be “master of your fate”.
I respect your dedication. I was in a bit of a bad mood the other day when I responded, sorry if it came off a little harsh.
