9-to-5 seems stable, but it’s actually the most dangerous.

The salary is enough, not too much or too little. Then buy a car, buy a house, support the family. At this point, quitting is no longer called courage, but recklessness. So you convince yourself: wait and talk about it later.

But what are you waiting for? In the blink of an eye, you’re forty. Blink again, and you’re fifty. By seventy, you realize — those "later" moments are gone.

Crypto entrepreneurs understand this truth. They see through the illusion of comfort: it’s not a safe harbor, but an invisible shackle. Every additional mortgage diminishes your courage to pursue freedom; every extra year of salary adds to your psychological burden of leaving.

So some step out. They dive into Web3, start projects, embrace uncertainty. Because they know — by seventy, the biggest regret isn’t failure, but never trying.

Comfort comes at a cost. Most people just don’t see it.
