Dear Stoics,
As we celebrate our one year anniversary as a community I wanted to let you all know how incredibly grateful I am for each and every one of you. The resilience shown by this community is nothing short of inspiring.
In the past year we have endured hacks, wars, FTX and Luna collapses, a mass exodus of Web3 artists, along with constant FUD from traditional media (see: headlines like “95% of NFTs are now worthless”). There have been countless times when it would have been easy to just blame someone or something outside of our control and leave Web3. Instead you have kept focusing on what was in your control, promoting great art, building new relationships, developing a culture that embraces technology and connection.
As we enter year 2, I am more passionate than ever. I am excited to keep growing with all of you. I am excited to leverage our talents as a community to better the world. Please keep going. I want to hear your passions and ways we can help you along in your Web3 journey. When we stay connected we become an unstoppable force.
The Stoic Balloons captured in this piece are more than just art; they represent our journey, and only time will reveal the incredible heights we can reach together.
Big Love, 🎈
Gabe
