Dear big tech employee —
You’re worried about the future. Will you be needed? Can you contribute to building enduring things?
You’re smart, pragmatic. That’s how you got where you are. That’s why you sense the future has changed.
My challenge to you: why aren’t you working in crypto?
You say you’re not passionate about it. But passion isn’t how you made your last 2 job choices.
You say it’s messy, unprofessional, filled with scams. But you know that those are problems — and that problems, and flawed competition, is what creates the opportunity.
Big tech is moving on from needing you, and will be celebrating laying off talent. Fine.
But crypto needs you. We need talented, professional, pragmatic people. There are problems, there are major areas lacking: come solve it, help build it. That’s the opportunity.
Building productivity tools is meaningful. Building social experiences is too.
Here in crypto we’re working on ideas about financial freedom, access to opportunity, cutting out middle men, bringing finance online. The headlines are often shallow. But the dreams here are worth pursuing.
Crypto is not one thing of course. Many dreams, and projects may not be right for you. But there’s probably something here you’d resonate with if it was just done better.
So come look around. Help us do something better. It may not be obvious, just as joining OpenAI several years ago wasn’t obvious at the time — but the onchain future is worthwhile, and will be all the more important in a world of AI.
Give it a chance. Join us on a new frontier.
