😔 Uncertain Times

There seems to be a lot of uncertainty in the world right now - especially around what’s happening in Russia/Ukraine and Canada - and the crypto markets are not liking it. Though there’s not much any of us can do about this as the macro/political environment is totally out of our control and crypto isn’t where we need it to be to really help people affected by this just yet.

Of course, we’ll keep building, and hopefully one day soon we can properly service the people that we’ve been creating all this technology for.

Have a great week everyone!
