Almost exactly 3 years ago I made my first money in web3 security. Code4rena Solidity codebase security contest, put in 2 hours of effort and got paid $46.04 USDC. Nothing has been the same since this. Your life can be unrecognisable in 3 years. Put in the effort & hours. I did.

Weekend = perfect time to reset & refocus. 1. Review your wins & losses from the week 2. Plan the next steps for your goals 3. Get some sun, touch some grass 🌿 Security research is a marathon, not a sprint.

I only know Patrick Collins

Every day, you see security researchers sharing their achievements. There is one thing you should know. If they can, you can too!

This is so me

Productivity alpha: Instead of working 8 hours, spend 1-2 hours in preparation so you can do 4 fully-focused hours of work. With a total of 6 busy hours, you are left with 2 hours to do whatever. In 4 focused hours you can do wonders. Works proportionally with bigger numbers🫡
