I began thinking about fortyIQ quite a long time ago—almost as soon as I entered crypto.
In combat aviation there is a concept of getting “strobed out.” Your sensors get overwhelmed by electronic warfare systems meant to jam sensors and confuse targeting systems. It’s my contention that we are now constantly getting strobed by adversarial forces on the internet.
Our minds are now hectic battlegrounds for electronic warfare, and it’s become very challenging to get a radar lock on our target—it’s confusing to even identify what our target is.
Thus, the ethos of fortyIQ—the tao of fortyIQ, its fundamental principle—is simplicity.
As an extension of the idea, I established fortyIQ as a ghostwriting agency for late-stage crypto founders who want to sharpen and simplify their vision. Our service is a way to cut away the noise ingested by and produced by founders and reduce their voice to its essential, core meaning.
But you don’t have to be a late-stage crypto founder to sign up for this newsletter.
This e-mail list is a simple way to capture people interested in the idea of simplicity as I publish more ideas around it. I’ll cover both crypto, broad technology, and the spiritual tools needed to navigate a complex world.
I hope you join me on the path to simplicity and creating tools to simplify our lives.
I’m deeply indebted to 0xBarry for helping me get fortyIQ off the ground. Thank you Barry.
Let’s get simpler every day.
