Hi nerds -
I salute you from the Panama City airport, about to hop on a flight to Athens, Greece.
Something interesting about bear markets is that they have been breeding ground for some of the most renown names in technology today:
But to build successful solutions teams need to run research - so that’s what we’re doing at Surge!

🕸 Online Communities: Few things more powerful to professional growth than leveraging online communities, be it cohort-based courses, Discord communities, or industry-specific Forums or Slack Workspaces.
🔑 Cybersecurity: Most hacks on cyberspace occur not because the technologies are faulty, but because of social engineering -psychological tricks that get users to hand over sensitive information or make security mistakes.
Here are some tips that help mitigate the risk:
💅🏽 Interfaces and protocols: In bull markets, crypto projects tend to focus on building strong interfaces, responding to the big inflow of newcomers into the space.
During bear markets, teams focus on building protocols instead, serving the web3 native, techie audience that stayed.
Better interfaces win mainstream adoption, while protocol level contracts attracts developers - and developers ultimately build the flywheel that fuels the next bull market.

I understand nothing about what the singer is saying, but still can't help shake my shoulders every time I listen to this song.
Great for a day of work when you want to focus with a smile.
Thanks for reading.
I will be in Athens, Madrid, Berlin, and Paris during July. Would love to meet more of you while I'm there :)
Keep hitting me up and we'll coordinate! 🌎
Best,
Jules 🤸🏻♂️

Hi nerds - I salute you from Berlin, a city that strangely feels like a home away from home. This week, I spoke at DappCon, a conference for developers building crypto infrastructure. In a classic Berlin style, they had deep house playing in the yard, vegan food, green juices, and a wellness conference running on parallel at the top floor. Needless to say, one of my favorite crypto conferences so far. 3_brain_farts 💪🏽 Impact-effort matrix: The impact-effort matrix is a prioritization mental...
Hi nerds - I salute you from ETHCC in Paris, where I just presented a keynote about the smart contracts behind DAOs. We’ve been working hard at Aragon to launch our new product - a permission management system - and today was the first time we were sharing it so widely! Exciting time to be building in the open 🚀. 3_brain_farts 💖 How to find the one: Image you’re an employer looking to hire a Secretary and you need to hire him/her right after the interview.

Hi nerds - I salute you from Panama City, where I've been going through the regular check-ups from doctors. How our bodies feel is always a reaction to our actions, whether it’s the food we eat, the medicines we consume, the habits we keep, our the stress we carry - nothing happens “just because”. Healthy old people are healthy young people. It’s never too late to wear skin care, work out, chill more, and eat our veggies. 3_brain_farts 🗑 Flat and fluid: When it’s everyone’s responsibility to...
