@arrington I used to have a boss in crypto like that and it got to the point where I would feel physically ill when we went to be seated at a restaurant. It was partly because it painful to watch and partly because I used to date a chef and I know what they do to the meals at those tables

Having a child brings a perspective and unbelievable love to your life that is unexplainable. People say it changes you and it truly does. I thought I loved my dog. I thought I loved ex boyfriends but nothing compares to the love for my child. It sounds cliché but real.

@arrington “While there, I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Mashinsky briefly. I looked him in the eyes and told him that I had entrusted my entire life’s savings to Celsius. Mr. Mashinsky assured me that my funds were safe.” This is terrible and truly evil. No empathy.

It’s irresponsible as a VC to look at a company for any period of time, decline them and then offer no feedback...in my experience, over the past 4 years the only investors that do this are inexperienced, I have never seen an experienced high profile VC do this.

Working in an international crypto company requires sending daily international wires, inputing swift codes & aba numbers, looking up bank addresses and speaking to our bank is a huge reminder why we need crypto in the first place. It’s like taking a horse to work to build a car.
