“I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.”

Such a great title I couldn’t resist, and humbly bequeath it to all other crypto founders and ask them to fess up where needed and perhaps someday I’ll are the whole story of this crypto founder; the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the Truth.

Until such times this piece is just to say this gig, keeping this vessel afloat, is hard. Real hard. And so sometimes I crack up a bit . . . the stakes, pun intended, are next level, and I poured my heart ’n soul in ‘lil ‘ol Dara. Three years and counting. So many blunders and so many triumphs. The ultimate victory is not Pyrrhic.

Reading something called Burning the Books: A History of the Deliberate Destruction of Knowledge, a timely reminder of how much Knowledge has been lost and why Dara was born. Did you know the Brits burned down the Library of Congress after which Thomas Jefferson sold his personal library to replenish it? And that a few years it burned down again destroying that collection? Jesus H. Christ

Now, if you could please accept my apologies for being too human at times; too fragile. As you know I always come back fighting. Safe hands update incoming. Stay tuned. And if you’re reading this stay Awesome.

Yours Always,

Gigamesh / Dorian Sherman
Founder of PROJECT DARA
