vitalik wrote an existential essay today that is entirely worthy of such a birthday milestone.
It's ironic how as a child that day brings such effervescence (if fortunate enough) and as you grow into adult it brings a sobering clarity about the navigation you currently follow in a time limited existence.

crypto.. you beautiful, ugly, chaotic, optimistic, filthy bastard. I love you so dearly and yet you irritate me to no end it seems.
the divisiveness of crypto proliferators is par for the course of current times - dev, content creator, lead, narrator - we continue the human folly of ignoring spectrum manifestation. but vitalik worded it beautifully in about 4 paragraphs.
we need complimentary opposites. it's the only way this thing gets built 'meaningfully'. and it's early enough to still be accomplished.
man, I love an existential essay from thoughtful humans - it was just the thing I needed today!!!
