I’m not buying Bitcoin because I’ll never need it.
Not as a store of value, not as a trusted ledger, not as a currency. I’m willing to bet that by the time the monetary system converges to decentralization (if it does?), we will have already passed the stage where money holds any real value. Money exists to bridge the gap between scarcities. It is…
Reflections on Redundancy – Why Mike Tyson lost to Jake Paul
I didn’t sleep well the night between Nov 14th and 15th. Among several reasons, the biggest one was the upcoming fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson scheduled for 6:30 AM. I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Boxing isn’t particularly popular in India or my social circle, and this wasn’t even a typical matchup—a man…
Road Trip (Conclusion): Highlights and Enduring Memories
In Ramagundam, Telangana, we had a discussion about how memory functions. Nikita asked my father if he recalled the place from his earlier stay there, about 37 years ago.

These man-made underground tunnels were constructed by the Viet Cong to combat the French and later the American forces in the 20th century. I’ve been to many natural and man-made earth structures (caves, tunnels, etc.),…
Road Trip (Part 1): From Kolkata…
When I was between 3-8 years old, Anish was my best friend. Anish and his family spoke Oriya, a language very similar to my mother tongue, Bengali. Thanks to those years in Korba, I always liked to believe that I understood Oriya. My hypothesis is currently being tested as of December 16, 2023. I am…
8 Winning Moves to Crush Churn & Retain Customers
I lead the operations for two SaaS companies internally labeled “Earners” by our holding company. What that means is that we are strategically more focused on customer retention than on acquisition. Makes sense for us and also a lot of other SaaS businesses. Why? In this article, I’m sharing my top 8 customer retention and…
