THE ORIGIN​​​​​​​

19 · The Sandbox. Automated Tinder (swipes, openers, date-setting) because swiping is a colossal waste of life. Got banned.  

20 · The Dorm. Couldn't work in AI, defense, or nuclear; gatekept by capital and/or regulation. Read More Money Than God. Started a quant fund from my college dorm. That was Blackrose.  

23 · Escape Velocity. The code cracked after three years. Blackrose started printing in COVID. Licensed algorithms to institutions.

29 · The Exit. Trading was a local maximum. Handed it off and left to build something venture scale.  

Now · San Francisco. Building Omnibook.
