Twitter and specifically Crypto Twitter is a great place to network, learn and debate the critical issues around the Crypto space. Desiree is someone I connected with a while back, and outside of Crypto and blockchain, we discovered we have a mutual love of the hardcore punk music scene.
After Desiree became the victim of a wholly disgusting Twitter troll, who cloned her account and starting harassing her friends and others on Twitter, I wanted to meet with her and discuss this. I wanted to understand the impact that something like this would have on someone and Desiree was very open about this. It was also eye-opening to see the poor response by Twitter in reporting the account, where they did not consider it to be harassment, but a parody account.
We don't only discuss the harassment; we also talked about the important work Desiree is doing in the blockchain space, specifically with regards to the work she is doing at Women for Women International and various issues in the Crypto space such as the role of the state.
