My First Million

The best business ideas come from noticing what's working and doing it better, faster, or for a different audience.

Back to Beliefs

Anonymous founders are strategically superior for system-threatening technologies

Evidence

Satoshi's anonymity allowed Bitcoin to survive government pressure while eGold's known founder was arrested and shut down

Implication

Builders of technologies that challenge power structures should prioritize anonymity over personal recognition

Counter Belief

Known founders provide accountability and trust that anonymous systems lack

Example Application

Privacy technology founders choose permanent pseudonyms to prevent personal targeting by authorities
