pardon the split reply ( -> @goldmanmorgan) but my RC is divided as much as the people in my head ... the concept of that would not be a position of power but a position of indispensability, with added benefit that they might have the urge to promote and stimulate yours as you provide a service that allows them to have more time to shine on the center stage, while you (if you can get past ego) just rake in the dough lol , sounds easier than it is ofcourse, crypto is finance now and finance is a jungle.
And once you get 4 million dollar you can just flush down the toilet, make like Justin Sun and donate it to a charity Warren Buffett likes while preparing your pitch while yours is NOT ratpoison heheh, on the off-chance you get an invitation, then don't decline and try to tell the man why he wants to invest a billion in you ...
better to reach far in options, even if they're not achievable and keep them on the stack in case they become so, than to splash around in the little pond and keep digging in the mud where you stand aiming at smallfry only
but as i said, that's all easier said than done ... they're trying, and they're doing, the biggest problem is the start that was too easy and the mentality of 'ethics' in a world of money that's a bit not suited to the place ... not saying you need to go for child labour (although those kids get to eat, while the rest starves ... that's a debate of its own) but it IS business after all and money is hard business...
i think they can make it work if they get off the "its the best tek piece" towards "the masses" train ... but don't ask me how, partnerships is certainly an indispensable part and if they can connect with the majors as a utility, not a competitor then the position would be safer ... bit more breathing space and all that
but who am i ?
i'm just trying to be nobody but i need more zeroes in my account for that (after the comma heh)
gud then (here i am keeping my silence for a week = not ... again tsch..)
small edit & p.s. : (always something to add, right)
40k or 400k might make for a nice tax-deductible and some promo, if you want Titans to notice you you could carve your face in a mountainridge but if you wanna be noticed by the gods you'll have to spell your name in stars somehow (mmh ... nasty metafors, i has it)
If, on the *big* chance the four million doesn't get you noticed or invited by either of the 1% of the 1% then there's no need to cry as it was " *four million you can flush down the toilet* " in the first place PLUS, that's a *serious* tax deduction plus : you get the image of "the good guys" 4 million in charity buys a lot of love (which ofcourse doesn't cost a thing) and the media-publicity from that is priceless , when played right ... after all, advertising costs money anyway, so might as well make it a double whammy, get tax deductions, whole lotta rosie , ehm, love and
exposure !!!!! (of the good kind)
in the meantime, while im yapping i'm not rendering, modelling or programming so i think i should cork it :)
the thing, and the biggest unanswered but most urgent question in the current brainstorm-cycle :

*why would these people need me?*

not as despair but as a REAL question looking for a REAL answer and

that's just not possible ... if you try that you'll end up with nothing but a lot of people smiling at you while they count the money they didnt pay you
so maybe

A nice little theory for a system or twentyfive dimensions, if only we lived in one ...

i know one thing : the only way to fail for sure is to not try at all heh
GUD ! (before i shoot in fortune cookie mode again *sigh* )
a good day to you, may we see the moon by 2020 ? (i think $5 is a nice level to hope for as a hyper-inflated utility token, but if you can provide *paid* service that's fiat money in the pocket, employees and their families happy and motivated and a way to keep it pegged , that sbd among other things ...)
it's just food for thought, dearie :) ... if i didnt like it here i wouldnt be here, right ?
