Crypto not crypto, blockchain is a fantastic solution to the idea of how do you enumerate value on the internet and trust for it in a way that is, just by science, trustworthy.

And that's the layer that we're missing on the internet to take it to a place where accrual value by individual is much more transparent and efficient. The products we're getting for people are better because there is accountability because when you make money, you want to make the product better. You want to retain your customers. You want to make sure that they're happy.

To be honest, I studied architecture school and I still build digital spaces. And I mean, the crypto side of, you're right, I am backed by crypto investors and I hire crypto engineers and we are in the crypto industry, but By all accounts, the job of what we're building is to build intimacy in the internet without making it smaller.

And blockchain is just a technology that we're using to create a set of communities that are permissionless, meaning anyone can join, but they organize around a new type of graph that is trust. And we'll get into this, but I just wanted to jump in and say like, you know, That's true that if it's walk like a duck and it talks like a duck, it's maybe a duck and it quacks like whatever the saying is.

And I think that's where the internet is going and where a lot of value is going to come, especially as it's expanding in the speed of light.
