Do Kwon is the proof that we’re still in the “Old Wild West” of crypto history
We need legends, but not only positive ones like Nakamoto or Buterin (still early for him, but IMO he’s a positive hero until now).
Every new tech has his own history with established “bad guys” and “good guys”, and crypto is building its own narrative. Future documentaries and movies will be happy Do Kwon and scamcoins existed, along with more serious projects. We can’t be 100% conscious of history building itself while we live it, but we can try to learn from past techs. Computers started with giant IBM and some very little european companies, but IBM had almost all the market (do you see some similarities?) Then Apple, then Microsoft happened, along with dozens of big companies with a lot of credibility that went missing… and here we are. Was it easy to predict? Not at all. Does it creates a cool narrative with bad guys and dreamers? With thiefs and real enterpreneurs? Yes it does.
In my own view, Do Kwon is like the “Jessy James of crypto”. Of course he has done a ton of illegal things and keeps doing that, but dude… there’s a little part in every human that dreams to live that kind of “adventure”.
We are building a new kind of legends, but almost nobody is able to comprehend it while it’s happening.
Thank’s for reading.
