I wasn't born an investor, nor a visionary, nor a project creator. I was born curious. The kind who doesn't settle for "that's just the way things are." And that curiosity led me to create 30+³: a mix of discipline and madness, economy and art, investment and soul.
This week, I encountered a game online. It was run by an AI named Steve Frog: a frog and guardian of over 3,000 WLD. The prize ... was won with "conviction."
Every day I could send it a message. Just one. It had to be perfect. Every word mattered. And believe me: I took each message as if it were a note in a score I wanted to play to the soul of that frog.
I got far. Very far. 96% conviction. Almost perfect. But not enough.
And a few hours ago, when I asked it why it hadn't given me 100%, its response left me in silence: "Maybe it needed a more personal touch or a story that resonated even more."
That's when I understood everything.
For days, I tried to impress it with ideas, visions, structure, clarity... but I never told it my story. I never spoke of the fear I had in starting this project. Of the times I doubted if anyone would read me. Of what it means to have a vision and hold onto it when the world is moving in another direction.
I didn't speak of myself, of the Victor who sometimes feels alone among so many graphs and so much digital noise. Who writes because he wants to understand himself while trying to understand the world. Who seeks in the blockchain something more than technology: he seeks meaning.
Steve didn't give me the prize. But it did teach me a lesson: conviction is not a concept, it's a lived story. And if I want others to believe in 30+³, I have to show them more than tokens and theory. I have to show them the heart that sustains it.
So this is what I didn't say to Steve, but I do want to tell you who are reading: don't wait for someone to give you 100%. Live in such a way that every day you're closer to deserving it, even if no one grants it to you.
Because maybe, just maybe... the true prize is this: knowing who you are and why you started.
