Hey DEV community! 👋
If you have been following my posts over the last week, you know the story by now. I spent 10 agonizing months locked in my room building a digital asset index fund platform called Wealtii. I wrote 315,000 lines of code completely solo. I shared the terrifying silence of launch day. I shared why we pivoted to include Real World Assets like Gold and Tech Stocks. I even talked about how traditional savings accounts are mathematically destroying the wealth of the working class.
But today, I want to talk about something entirely different. 🛑
I want to talk about the absolute darkest side of the technology industry. I want to talk about the toxic culture that surrounds building financial products, and why the default path for founders is actively hurting the everyday user.
Today, I want to talk about the Silicon Valley Venture Capital trap. 💸
