Act fast: For a limited time, only $99/year to keep yourself anonymous and out of the crosshairs of disgruntled ex-employers. Then prices shoot up to whatever the fuck we want, because we know you’ll pay!

It’s distributed so no single entity can take it down. Among many other possible benefits depending on architecture and infrastructure.
It’s far more complex than coins and NFTs. Blockchain is like a new internet. Coins and NFTs are like those shitty GIFs you used to see everywhere. Evocative of old internet, but not the internet itself.

I thought this was already done? The Figma post sounded pretty final. I was pretty sad to read it but this news gives me some hope.
