ive been in asia for a few days and i feel like my "china gene" just got reactivated. starting in 2017, my crypto career has largely been about bridging east and west. i did asia expansion for consensys in the early days, and then started writing for decrypt in 2019. my column was literally called "da bing" which means bitcoin in chinese (also why brother bing). in the height of the 2022 ethereum alignment era, i was in a deep state of discomfort. my western education taught me that "alignment is good, and decentralization is always good" yet my chinese side was screaming "wait why are we decentralizing layer 2, why is there so much fake pc bs everywhere" more importantly, my "china business sense" worked up when i read the megarollup white paper. it's a good business in my mind because the world will always want a low latency asset ledger. people call someone like me a banana, and talk about how much we struggle with our identity. however, i think growing up in china makes me realize that "centralized sequencer" is freakin good, and educated in the states bestow me the courage to schill centralization to folks even though they apply morality against contrarian views the key for cross-cultural kid is to embrace our inner business side, and not afraid to own it (plus explain it with passion)
