Jett, known as @ultrastarter on Twitter and Telegram (TG), introduced himself as someone with over 10 years of business development experience, including roles in M&A investment banking, recruiting, and managing a small resort. He sold the resort earlier in 2021 to fully dedicate himself to blockchain and crypto, particularly focusing on blockchain gaming and decentralized communities.
Jett explained his excitement for decentralized communities with fair launches, no taxes, and liquidity locked for long periods, such as Hourglass $WAIT. He believes that these kinds of projects, unlike typical crypto scams, will help achieve mass adoption. Jett became involved with Hourglass $WAIT after being introduced to it by @LoFurno555.
