I'd love to attend an in person version of this in London. I've long felt that we need more events like this in the city.

John Collison explores this subject in an episode of Invest Like The Best [1]. He talks about conglomerates like LVMH and Danaher and how they often give managers of acquired companies latitude in how they operate. He also points out that n

Many of the benefits of being paid in crypto are just benefits of crypto in general: decentralized, permissionless, censorship-free money. Aside from that, there's an emerging trend that I think is both really cool and will end up bein

Good question! So a candidate is sharing their name. It's just not necessarily their legal/government name. They're not anonymous. They're pseudonymous. Meaning they're just working under a different name. But t

Awesome! If you ever want to bounce ideas shoot me an email. You can find my email in the "about" section of my profile. :)

Good question. So many of these jobs all you to work pseudonymously but your legal identity is still shared with some members of the organization (like execs/HR/finance) for onboarding purposes. Some just pay out in cryptocurrency

Congrats! I launched a job board recently too [1] specifically for Anon Friendly jobs (jobs where you can work pseudonymously). We have similar domain names :D One thing you might want to look into is adding Structured Data [2] for job post

Hey! A couple days ago I launched anonfriendly [1]. It's a site that shows jobs where you can work pseudonymously. You might find it useful. I launched on HN yesterday and it went #1. You might find that discussion [2] interesting as p

Thanks for letting me know, and in such detail. Appreciate it.

Hey, thanks for commenting! Are the LooksRare job postings responding with a 404? Their application involves sending an email, when you click "apply" it launches your email client. It's working for me. Am I missing something?

Completely appreciate the points you laid out in both of your comments, thanks for sharing! One counter-point, just from my own personal experience, but adopting a pseudonym online has actually allowed me to be more authentic and more socia

Thank you so much for your affirmation of that idea, warkdarrior. Your comment is really encouraging. Forgive me if this is too bold but is there any way you could connect me with those people? Or perhaps let me know where I should be looki

Thank you so much for your suggestions, lajamerr. Really means a lot to me. Those are all brilliant ideas. That's actually the direction I'm hoping to take it. Ultimately, the goal is to accelerate the advent of the pseudonymous e

Employers don't have to disclose their identity, it's up to them! Many of the founders of these organizations are pseudonymous themselves.
18.
by 0xPersona 4y ago
Well it's not just your employer who knows your legal identity at work. It's potentially the entire organization, and more.

by 0xPersona 4y ago
Thanks for sharing! I didn't know that. That's actually very interesting.

No. Which is why I would ask them to submit a resume, interview them, do reference calls, check their Github, check their social media, etc. I would hire a pseudonymous programmer. I probably would not hire a pseudonymous programmer with ze

Or even working in countries with generally higher crime or weaker rule of law. I spent years living in a country where even saying/posting something seemingly innocuous could put your life at risk.

by 0xPersona 4y ago
Good question! I'd love to know the answer to this, too.

by 0xPersona 4y ago
Thanks for sharing! I do think adoption could be driven by talent. I could imagine the best candidates preferring pseudonymous work, causing employers to accommodate in order to remain competitive. I think your point about pseudonymous disc

You'd be surprised! Some of the best smart contract security folks in the space are pseudonymous and I imagine many organizations would work with them without needing to know their legal identity. One of those people is samczsun[1] who

No, you're definitely right! I definitely wouldn't feel confident saying they're handling it well, because I just don't know how they're handling it! But I do hope to bring some of this info to light. I think it&#x2

by 0xPersona 4y ago
Yeah, I definitely agree. But I do think this philosophical debate is one worth having! I'm hoping the site will at least help kick it off or facilitate it to some degree.

by 0xPersona 4y ago
Yes! And I think that's an important point to consider. Personally I think of "anon friendly" as existing on a spectrum. Organizations offer various degrees of it. Some "anon friendly lite" organizations will allow

Thank you for sharing. That was a tough read. Really feel for everyone involved. I think regardless of the type of work (anon friendly, remote, in person), we need to build systems to deal with these sorts of things gracefully, in a way tha

I wouldn't describe any of the organizations listed as "bullshit". Weird, maybe. But they actually do really interesting and valuable work!

I think you're probably right, elbigbad. I'm hoping to learn from organizations about how they're handling this, and then share, so we can create best practices. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Really means a lot.
