Crypto for me has become the opposite of the fun hack and try ethos. It's the opposite of most open source in that it is pay to play. I can't clone a repo and play around with something. I almost always need to buy some token. It's the commodification of hacking and it isn't fun so I don't participate.

    To earn while learn, in the space you enjoy? What's your ideal setup, out of curiosity?

      What do you mean by setup? I have a strong, but not rigid preference for free/open/hackable.

  I didn't know anything about this, that's really cool.
