I think there are a few legitimate reasons to why a lot of people end up in ”crypto”.

First, they look at Bitcoin primarily as a speculative investment asset (rather than a new monetary system - an electronic peer-to-peer cash system as it is intended to be), thus applying the traditional investing wisdom number 1:

”diversify your portfolio”

So they end up diversifying, and building up a portfolio of differenent cryptocurrencies - all in order to engage in what they perceive as proper risk management.

Secondly, a lot of people just assume that the future digital economy will mimic the traditional economy - they assume it will be a world full of different currencies for different countries and for different use cases. And that bitcoin will just be part of the puzzle.

It's such a privilege to create the future with the @fedi team & all our investors. I cannot wait for more people to grasp the vision and reality of what we are building.

It’s going to be incredible.

You know these are permanent right

I was surprised to see many NSFW profiles using Zapit. While it's emotional and fascinating to see someone sustain their livelihood using your service, I believe we can do much better. I think we can make something like onlyfans Bitcoins as payment.
