😔 This Crazy World

It’s kinda crazy that since the last time I put out this newsletter (just a week ago), a new war has started between Russia and Ukraine. Along with the war came plenty of second-order effects including harsh financial sanctions on Russia which has got people talking about how this all effects crypto and how governments would react if Russia started using crypto rails to get around sanctions. Of course, I’m no geopolitical expert, but I do find the discussions that I’m reading to be quite fascinating and thought-provoking.

I hope that this war is ended swiftly via peaceful means - I personally stand with Ukraine in all of this.

Have a great week everyone!
