How have your poker experience helped you in developing Blink?
Any aspects of game theory that guided you in your thinking?
Thanks!
I think playing and thinking about poker constantly has improved my reasoning abilities like few other things and I am applying the things I learnt through poker constantly and everywhere. The biggest learning is that it's often sufficient to constantly "not be stupid" to win big and succeed. Success is often just a concatenation of steps that were not wrong - it's not one super ballsy 5D chess move, but rather continuous sold decision making.
Some things just are straight forward and they should be solved straight forward.
Also: discipline / self-control and patience are virtues that can be directly transferred to "the game of facilitating bitcoin adoption"
