Almost Ten Years Later...

Steemit was the VERY FIRST blockchain DLT-enabled technology that I was exposed to (even before Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) in 2016. I really didn't even know what it was at the time and wow how things have changed since then. It's good to be back on here as the entire industry has matured (somewhat LOL) to its current state...and into the next iteration. ![Solana 2nd Derivative .jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXFSL1YhMiP2hfS1CR1hYkHVwZQDAYZLnSg4aQYFrh9SC/Solana%202nd%20Derivative%20.jpg) I've been traveling around the world from one country when I first posted in 2016 to now over 60 countries in 2025 building, learning, and connecting the dots. Many exciting projects coming to fruition and being launched over the next many months we've been working on for years from liquidity providing to algorithmic trading to creative for celebrities utilizing blockchain, AI and quantum technologies. What a time to be alive! Went from having no clue what "self-custody" meant, how BTC blocks are mined circa ever ten mins, to serving as Chief of Staff to the Chairman of the Bitcoin Foundation and Co-Founder of Tether (esp when they were raising over $10M per day for Block.one ICO) and so many more experiences since that fateful time jumping on a plane down to Puerto Rico in 2017. I even ended up on the front page of the New York Times with Brock LOL. ![BTC Price Action (Post-Halving).jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUzHGGCMcZWnjFxy6hjxyvw6Rqmy7NC5J1rxTDAVc1qYf/BTC%20Price%20Action%20(Post-Halving).jpeg) Have been working with one major project that will be sharing more info on that's now live which has raised a few hundred million and has a huge potential esp now that David Sacks is leading things up for POTUS. March 7th being the first White House Crypto Day will really set the forthcoming tone. "They not like us..." ![Sacks Trump Oval Office.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbdpbe132iYQV8U3NkTk4bZeoiLuCGBF8msF1fxF8232z/Sacks%20Trump%20Oval%20Office.jpg) Regulatory clarity will be amazing - that takes me back to our Wyoming days when Caitlin and the rest of us changed the laws out there starting in 2018. So much has happened. Will do my best to be active esp sharing macro economic insights along with other thoughts, analysis, and so on across the spectrum. ![Phnx Rising BTC.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQSHRt4fj4d5BYf9AdsFoWyiUiKJFHm1xReYQnfAD9Een/Phnx%20Rising%20BTC.jpg) P.S. None of this is nor will ever be investment advice. DYOR.
