Just found this screenshot of @ljxie tweet, she's a co-producer of @EthereumFilm
I took the screenshot on 19 Feb and spent some time thinking.

A day later I posted this.
1/ Looked through my camera roll from the weeks preceding the full scale invasion on 24th February. This was posted on my Insta stories on the 20th Feb. One day later, @Ukraine_DAO was born.

Another day later, I messaged my friend @Mehdiaeth and asked to squat social media handles for @Ukraine_DAO.
Timing is critical in emergency situations.
When russians started the full-scale invasion, everything was already prepared for Ukraine DAO to help degend Ukraine.
1/ Found the messages from 21 Feb in which I ask my friend @Mehdiaeth to squat the usernames for @Ukraine_DAO.

So strange to see this now, I must've been under so much stress I can't remember how I sent these, and the cold/short tone is very reflective of my state at that time. https://t.co/WvyKG78bAa
@Ukraine_DAO adapts to Ukraine's changing defence needs faster than any other form of organisation possibly could.
It's a unique model that's still developing but I'm so happy I did it with the help of thousands of amazing people.

1/ “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world: indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

Trying to process this tonight.
The Telegram chat that turned into @Ukraine_DAO was set up on 21 Feb - 3 days before the genocidal invasion 💔 https://t.co/S6Uo909e9Y
On day 1, @VitalikButerin called me and I spent an hour explaining to him what was about to happen
@ljxie reached out and @EthereumFilm crew dropped everything they were doing and flew to London to film the first days of @Ukraine_DAO formation ❤️🖤
If someone told me a year ago that @EthereumFilm crew would fly from LA to film me, I'd laugh. Really wishing we met under different circumstances and wishing there was no need for @Ukraine_DAO but it was still awesome to meet @zach__davidson & team 🇺🇦💘

@ljxie @VitalikButerin
The time between me seeing @ljxie tweet, thinking of @Ukraine_DAO and then @EthereumFilm guys running around with my dog @sashathefella - less than 10 days.
