It is a great framework to develop on, but we had some challenges using MetaMask with it. Lots of room for growth, has serious potential.

I've been both the programmer and the entrepreneur. With multiple exits, I've been choosing my projects for years.

Software is more deterministic that humans. When businesses fail, it usually comes down to the other business partners/clients making and enforcing the wrong call - often in unpredictable ways. If you have to choose, manage the software, control the company.

IMHO, it always works out better for yourself when you own & control everything. If you have partners, have the veto.

Make and keep the gold I say :)

I have done a dozen or so private share sales or purchases.

The model I have really come to like is EquityZen's. (https://www.equityzen.com)

Using a crowd sourced approach, a group of accredited investors (buyers) can participate in purchasing a block of shares as a fund. A win for the smaller individual investor who could not normally participate due to various constraints (ie buying power, transaction costs).

Likewise, its also a win for sellers and it applies to the Unicorn's of the world. It gives these shareholders access to a market they wouldn't normally access.

It seems that selling shares privately is becoming more common, any model that connects a larger group of accredited buyers to accredited sellers is good - IMHO.

M.U.L.E is my one of my all time favourite game of the 80s. It inspired me to dive into technology. It is still impressive even by todays standards.

I am proud to say that I still own a Commodore 64 and my original floppy still works after 30 years. Shocking frankly.

Ironically, my teenage son become so good he can beat me fair and square. :)
