Last summer, I accepted an offer to join JPMorgan as an analyst upon graduation.
Today I rejected that offer.
Though I am grateful for the incredible opportunity, my career interests are here in web3/crypto. And I couldn't be happier.
why does a first post on twitter feel so awkward. maybe it’s because i have 4 followers. tho my 4 followers rock & are into web3 stuff so i’m not complaining. hello all 4 of you 👋
I am completely new to web3 and crypto space. If you are like me, let’s learn together. The best way to learn is to learn by doing, so feel free to follow along!
before going down the web3 🐰 🕳, i honestly thought it was normal to hate your job.
crypto/web3 has raised my standards. people here are making a living doing what they love—and that is so rare. it’s so rare i didn’t even know it was an option.
btw, women-led projects don't have to be dedicated to onboarding more women into crypto.
i feel that many women-led projects are pigeonholed into centering their gender-identity instead of their work.
went from 4 to nearly 4k friends in an unholy amount of time. seems time to introduce myself:
- USC student
- trad fi background (but about to take a python course, wish me luck)
- web3 newb trying to inspire others to take the leap
- enjoys naps & unnecessary skin-care routines
im not cut out for the NFT game. i sold an NFT & the buyer immediately listed it for double the price. i am watching their listing obsessively & praying on their downfall.
do DAOs have human-resources? is that even the right term to use in a flat org? how do DAOs off-board (fire) a contributor, resolve internal conflict, etc?
i want to do an article where I interview DAO contributors about this. if you wanna chat, send me a DM!
biggg life update: I’m joining Euler Labs at its London HQ 🇬🇧 as Partnerships & Integrations Lead! I am so excited to be a part of Euler’s comeback story 🛢️🚀
fyi I’m currently at Permissionless! DM me if you’re here too 👀

i feel envious of those who are full-time in this space.
i am in limbo -- not being paid, yet spending 10+ hours everyday on top of school going to meetings, helping out with initiatives, etc.
gm everyone. I will FINALLY be dedicating my day to understanding NFT's inside & out. and ofc I will thread everything I learn to share with u all. what cool things are you up to today? 🤝
on this day last year i was told by my manager at JPM that i was too casual/unprofessional because i told an MD i loved her dress.
now i make memes for a living and say things like "can i post the elmo snorting coke meme?"
every single day.
no matter what i do, no matter what opinions i voice or don’t voice, i am met with targeted sexual harassment.
but i am not going anywhere. so misogynists—cope & seethe. and you will be blocked. i am too worthy to entertain you.
just remembered that on my first day in crypto twitter, I asked someone if they were also from Connecticut because they had “CT” in their bio. screaming crying n throwing up.
who onboarded you into crypto? and if you found your way here yourself - how did you do it?
I 100% wouldn't have "taken the leap" if it wasn't for my brother. he told me about
@indexcoop
. we need more visibility & convos about onboarding ppl without connections into this space.
got a lot of DMs from men thanking me for my bravery in posting about abortion & saying they agree with me.
but allyship in the dark doesn’t do much. tell your fellow men how you think. they will respect you—whereas they call me every name in the book & send me death threats.
my page is a safe space for the gays, the questioning, the gender non-conforming, the atheists, the pro choice … all of it. i love you all and you rock. just be kind and you are welcome here.
me: effortlessly got 4k+ followers my first week in crypto.
also me: on my hands and knees begging y'all to get me from 9.7k to 10k for the past month.
we have a winner!!! ✨🔮

@anothercohen
because questioning entire ethnic groups is always bigoted, reductive f and weird?
“the blacks” “the jews”—under what circumstances does it ever make sense to group together millions of people & question them?
i’m jewish & lost 200k to ftx. got questions?
woke up to 300 new followers. great, now I feel pressured to post intelligent things!! just kidding. so excited to be here and this community has given me the warmest welcome :)
