I was at a Blockchain conference a few years ago in Puerto Rico. It was a week of interesting meetings, characters, and surreal underground parties. At the end of the week, a group of investors I was working with had a recap of the conference at a rooftop bar overlooking San Juan. I arrived at the meeting and was few rounds of whiskey behind.

We were discussing a project, and there is an intense debate about problems and solutions. My wizardly crypto-entrepreneur rabbi friend says,

“It’s a puzzle.”

With our current events: GameStonk vs. Wall Street, Elon Musk on Clubhouse, the Big Tech Death Star, the Left vs. the Right, climate change, geopolitical escalation, the CCP Borg, ecosystem collapses, other innumerable existential and catastrophic risks, the current state of the world seems to be the puzzle to end all puzzles.

“So the question is, ‘Do you like puzzles?’”
