Never forget

Going to hide behind Charles moderation skirts is not the answer. This is crypto. Be your own bank. Not your keys, not your crypto. When did we shift responsibility from self-moderation and control to asking Daddy to take care of it for us? Don't like the troll accounts? Block them and move on with your day. Every discord/forum/controlled point of conversation is littered with people who got banned/silenced/booted or otherwise moderated as soon as they said something that the moderation team found unacceptable. Shouldn't it be on us to decide which voices and channels we listen to or silence/mute? If moving to discord is the right place for Charles to interact because he needs that safe space for himself. Great. It's disingenuous to suggest that will be/is the "home" of the Cardano community and is the only place that "governance" and other discussions are allowed to happen under the threat of moderation. The Cardano community exists across the spectrum; there are already hundreds of Discords, Telegram, WhatsApp, Forums, YouTube, local and regional channels where people choose where to go to find and discuss information relative to Cardano.

When Trump reluctantly sold his Miss Teen USA pageant, when he decided to run for President, the very first thing the new owners did was to eliminate the bikini contest, something Trump refused to do despite years of requests. Girls in Trump's bikini contest were 14

People only hate Elon Musk because he comes from an emerald mining fortune made in apartheid South Africa, he buys ideas and pretends he’s an inventor, he’s a white supremacist, union-busting, abusive employer, he’s hoarding $1T in stolen wages, he makes us ashamed to be human,

It’s 2026 and the Founding entities of $ADA are making a discord server. Honestly could be the most bearish thing i’ve ever heard. Deep down I still really want to believe in cardano but holy shit is it a fucking hard effort.

The world's first trillionaire is backing the far right mobs and their politician backers. Don't think for a second that these men have ordinary people's interests at heart.

I put my entire life into Cardano. My time, my expertise, my savings. I’ve literally gone all in, and for over 5 years now. No salary for 3 years, along with my co founder, and every payroll was paid on time. This isn’t meant as a guilt trip just context towards my reality. I forced my cofounders to envelope the ‘entrepreneur mindset’ and make sacrifices to make our vision of Anvil work. I thought we were in good company in Cardano. A bunch of scrappy, smart people who are building the future financial rails of the world. Unfortunately, not everyone was living like starving entrepreneurs and looted our community/treasury while keeping cushy salaries. Now the price is in the teens…and we can’t even get contracts on Cardano to sustain our business, with no indication that change is coming, all community business proposals are not passing atm. I gave up my 30s for this. I had a great career trajectory making solid money. I don’t regret the decision I just wish it went different. Believe it or not, we didn’t make many stupid decisions, we were responsible with salaries, and ran very lean operations. Did we fail? Or did Cardano fail to flourish and create real opportunity? I bought Ada, I believed in the token. I dropped my 401k on it. Held it religiously for 5 years, all to sell at .16 so I don’t lose my house? It’s insane lol was I supposed to sell on everyone’s heads? I thought being a believer was the whole point now I just feel like a sheep. I don’t even have the 100k Ada required anymore to go straight to the treasury. The only thing I can think of that hurt worse were my kidney stones. This is the most defeated I have felt in a long time. And now I’m watching 8 months of hard work and relationship building get thrown away. Can’t get a hold of half the DReps otherwise you come off as annoying. Didn’t do a Japan tour? Good luck! I had to waste 6 days explaining to one of our top DReps why the product needs Cardano. He basically said we didn’t need to use blockchain or cardano. Instead of explaining the value we create I gotta convince our top DReps why a project chose to build on Cardano? 🤯 Im not perfect but I damn sure tried to be! Answered everyone promptly, reached out to DReps, and did our best to listen/apply feedback. I show up everyday. Can someone explain to me why I should keep trying to build here? I’ve legit lost everything but my wife who isn’t getting any happier with me. Today is the first day I work towards getting my life back. IDK exactly what that means but I’m done feeling like this for nothing.
