Farewell #daslondon! 🇬🇧 Thanks to @blockworks for another amazing gathering on all things #crypto. Big lesson, lots of talk about getting ready for #MiCA in the EU. 🇪🇺 Also inspiring to listen to a financial crime panel at @CFCS_RUSI on the tech and teachings we need to use.

We’ve built a community and eventually worked-from-home in #RoyalOak, a northern suburb. During lock-down, my then-5-year-old told me “one good thing about the coronavirus is that we get to spend more time as a family.” Yes, absolutely.

This is my last day living and working in #Detroit. 🏙️🌉 For three years, we’ve loved this place–the practical, hospitable people, the openness and edginess of the City, and under-appreciated natural beauty of #Michigan. ❄️🌷⛱️🍂
