CoinDesk picked up our founder Justin N.'s article on his friend Len Sassaman and the possibility of him being Satoshi Nakimoto. Rather than discuss Len's technical chops, which have already been well documented, Justin shares who Len was as a person and how Len's ethos matched well with what we know of Satoshi. https://lnkd.in/gNeeep5B

Massive outages like the one experienced by CrowdStrike can make or break a company and its team. Our COO shares a story about how she and Justin N. alongside other executives like Ronald Burr and Charles Hilliard fostered a spirit of integrity and executive support during an outage that brought the company to its knees. #Managament #HumanResources #Crowdstrike https://lnkd.in/gufYysw2
How a company handles a massive outage like what CrowdStrike is experiencing can make or break a company and its team. In the late '90s, I worked at NetZero, the largest free ISP in the U.S. One day, a seemingly small error spiraled into a massive crisis. An employee mistakenly pushed a completely blank phone list to every single customer on our network. Instantly, millions of users across the country were unable to access the internet. No emails, no meetings, no online activities—our service was paralyzed. We were dead in the water. Chaos ensued. Our tech team, from Level 1 technicians to the CTO, scrambled to find a solution. With users unable to dial in, we couldn't push out a new phone list. The average wait time in our call center, which I managed, soared from three minutes to over three hours. We were unable to provide any ETA because we had no idea how or when we would resolve the issue. In many organizations, such a crisis would trigger a hunt for the responsible party—a blame game. Executives would demand names, looking for someone to hold accountable, someone to shame. But at NetZero, we chose a different path. Justin N., my current co-founder at Netki and the VP of Engineering for NetZero at the time, took full responsibility. He declared, “As the VP of Engineering, it was my responsibility to anticipate and prevent these incidents. This outage is 100% on me.” He shielded the individual who made the mistake and focused on finding a solution. After several hours of intense work, the software engineering team developed a workaround, and service was restored. The relief and celebration that followed were profound. Not a single person was fired. Instead, we conducted a calm, thorough post-mortem analysis, focusing on: - What happened - Why it happened - How to prevent it in the future, and - Are there other processes or systems at risk of similar issues? The entire team witnessed this response. They saw leadership address the issue as an honest mistake, something any one of us could have made. They saw a focus on moving forward, not on assigning blame. This approach fostered an environment of safety and trust. Employees learned that day that they too could own up to mistakes without fear of losing their jobs, promoting transparency and collaboration. This pivotal moment transformed our company culture. Future issues were promptly addressed by teams working together, not by individuals hiding errors out of fear. This ethos of honesty and teamwork became the bedrock of our success. To this day, when I meet former colleagues, they often reminisce, "NetZero was the best company I ever worked for." That is the legacy of leadership with integrity. To the Crowdstrike team, I wish you the best in navigating your current challenges and seizing this moment to demonstrate exceptional leadership. #management #leadership #CrowdStrike

😯 As Hong Kong prepares to approve Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs this week, it marks a significant pivot from China's 2021 ban on cryptocurrency trading and mining—a stark contrast highlighting differing approaches within the region. 🇭🇰 This development will reposition Hong Kong as a strategic gateway for cryptocurrency investments in Asia, drawing mainland Chinese investors' interest in a new era of financial innovation that aligns with global investment trends despite mainland China's stringent restrictions. In the U.S., the SEC's ongoing scrutiny of Uniswap Labs and the ambiguity regarding Ethereum's status as a security, despite its launch in 2015, illustrate a broader disconnect with the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector. Uniswap, a leading decentralized exchange and decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), has facilitated over $489 billion in trades, showcasing the robust activity and innovation within the DeFi space despite regulatory challenges. ⛓ Meanwhile, Abu Dhabi's proactive regulatory framework within the (Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM)) offers a stark contrast, providing clear guidelines attracting companies like TitleChain. The divergence in regulatory philosophies highlights a critical juncture for the global financial market. While the U.S. struggles with regulatory uncertainties and litigious challenges, jurisdictions like Abu Dhabi and Hong Kong offer conducive environments for fintech advancements. 📖 Such trends highlight the global shift toward more open regulatory frameworks as 10,000 participants gather at TOKEN2049 in Dubai this week, Crypto's biggest event, creating significant opportunities. As the financial landscape evolves toward 'data money' and moves away from traditional, centrally controlled paper currency, how can U.S. firms maintain their competitive edge? #crypto #tokenization #RWA #future #datamoney
Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs may hit Hong Kong markets as early as Monday: Bloomberg

Netki has been working with the team at Sui Foundation to bring institutional-grade compliance to Sui’s institutional-scale network! Sui clearly has the expertise in building world class blockchain technology for use by institutions and enterprises. The result is real time: - at the point of the transaction KYC/AML - wallet and transaction screening - securities and tax compliance enabling developers to integrate with ease, attracting institutional capital to their project as well as meeting emerging global DeFi regulations and requirements.
Digital identity verification leader Netki is coming to Sui – helping to make decentralized financial systems safer and more accessible globally. Coming soon is DeFi Sentinel – Netki’s tool for developers that automates compliance within protocols, enabling devs to focus on shipping high-impact projects instead of spending time thinking about complex regulations that often differ across jurisdictions. DeFi Sentinel provides real-time KYC/AML, wallet screening, financial transaction monitoring, securities compliance, and tax compliance, and will be integrated directly within the DeFi protocols on Sui that choose to implement the tool. Sui will also integrate Netki's OnboardID, which, for protocols that enable it, will enhance user onboarding and identity verification processes, reducing costs and simplifying compliance around the onramping process for Sui’s DeFi applications. https://lnkd.in/gybAE4iV

Financial inclusion is one of the keys to a better world. Find out how the country of El Salvador was able to "just do it" for their 4 million citizens!
Financial inclusion is something a lot of folks talk about as a concept. We don't hear enough in the media about success stories. El Salvador was able to take their previously unbanked citizens and give them financial accounts on the Bitcoin network with each citizen instantly receiving $30 USD to use. I am so proud of my team Netki for being able to take over onboarding 4 million citizens of El Salvador safely and security, verifying and protecting their identity. I hope more countries pursue endeavors like this so everyone can achieve financial freedom!

Our CEO is working a lot harder these days.
Thirteen years ago was my first trip to the UAE for a World Economic Forum meeting. This year I chaired a working group for the WEF and moved to UAE. Life is all about cycles and growth.
