Lack of empathy (and even disdain) for users is a huge mistake for crypto builders. The most universal Silicon Valley advice is that you can't delegate away talking to your users. Talk to your users every day. Understand their pain points. Blame your product, not the user.

Second (and last) chance to get your work accepted as an #NDSS24 paper. Submission deadline next week on Ju e 28. Please make Mathias, me, and our TPC members busy again 🙂! ndss-symposium.org/ndss2024/submi… NDSS Symposium
