Proof of Work. Proof of Connection.

If you’re here, you’ve got the physical token to prove we’ve crossed paths.

In a digital world built on fleeting LinkedIn connections, zero-trust assertions, and ephemeral chats, this coin is strictly out-of-band.

I don’t hand these out like business cards or conference booth swag. If you’re holding one in your hand, it means one of two things:

  1. We’ve been in the trenches together: We built something meaningful, debugged a thorny architecture under pressure, or solved a complex puzzle as a team.
  2. We sparked something genuine: We crossed paths at a conference, summit, or hallway track, dove straight past small talk, and hit a wavelength worth remembering.

Consider this coin a permanent credential:

  • Hardware-Backed Handshake: A tangible marker of mutual respect and shared perspective.
  • Priority Routing: Need a sounding board on identity architecture, a sanity check on a project, or honest career advice? You get bumped straight to the top of the queue.
  • Standing Protocol: The first beverage (coffee, pint, or sparkling water) is on my tab next time our paths cross at any event or city.

You made it this far – let’s make sure the handshake is complete:

  • Drop me a ping: Send a quick note — I’d love a photo of where the coin landed!
  • Remind me of where we crossed paths: Mention the project we tackled or the conference session/hallway where we got to talking.
  • Call in the token: If you’re wrestling with an architectural puzzle, exploring a new idea, or just want to catch up, let’s grab 20 minutes on the calendar.
