Hi,
let me just vent off some lingering frustration.
Sometimes, I get silly remarks on my post, suggesting that I don't know what I'm talking about (when I'm providing insights into the crypto space). Even when I write well-motivated opinions, whereas the post I'm reacting on is rather 'poorly written'.
There seems to be the idea, among some of us, that girls can't get the whole crypto thing. Well, let me tell you, I get it! Well, I'm not a dev, not even an IT person, but even though I have 2 x-chromosomes, I can do my own research. Yes, even when I'm on my p...
