If you were advertising a car, was it better to show a picture of a car, or of a pretty woman? If one was selling shirt collars, was it better to do so under the headline “Murder!” or the headline “Quality Shirt Collars”? To make a long story short (and to skip over the proto-pataphysical techniques by which Nixon established what we might call a “science of irrelevancy”), Nixon found that “irrelevant illustrations do attract more attention and hold interest longer than do relevant ones.” 8 Which is to say: systematically doing violence to sense raised revenue. This could be proven in his laboratory. Would it be wrong to say that we live, in many respects, in the world evolved from that finding?
Engage constructively with others.
Do not try to argue.
Try to understand and help.
Gently explain.
When is Matt Levine going to become a Bitcoin maxi. He is getting close.
"Bitcoin expresses the thesis that it would be good to have a valuable database entry without that, just something was valuable because people on the internet voluntarily agreed it was valuable, with no government or army or taxes or anything else. And it worked! That did happen. It has value due to a broad voluntary market consensus based almost entirely on itself. In some sense that consensus is fragile — if a thing is valuable only because people think that it is valuable, it could stop being valuable when they stop thinking that — but in another sense that is true of any social fact: The dollar is valuable, the King of England is the King of England, the US is a liberal democracy, etc., exactly as long as those facts command social consensus. Bitcoin got to what seems like a pretty robust consensus in 15 years. That’s just neat."

Feedback is a gift
Some gems in there, and interesting to hear what people with different opinions think
interesting discussion
Tell yourself that the project is different from anything you’ve done before and presents an exciting opportunity to try out new approaches and learn from them.
See yourself as critical to a successful outcome and yet as unable to achieve success without the willing participation of others.
Tell yourself that others are vitally important to a successful outcome and may provide key knowledge or suggestions that you can’t anticipate in advance.
Communicate with others exactly as you would if the above three statements were true.
Alternative view of this idea could be overlaying tx fees and the issuance amount, would be a less rosy picture.
Or a table of market caps of all assets, if you wanted a rosier one.
Have you tried a bullet journal
