How I explain crypto to newbies. (~2min, works for all ages + politics) > “How much of the proof of your wealth — bank account, deed, stocks, etc — is stored in a computer somewhere?” > "So: the proof of all your wealth is actually digital." > "Now, there is always some single person who *could* delete or change your proof of wealth with a single keystroke." > "It happens in more corrupt countries all the time. The fact that it doesn’t happen to us is something to be thankful for." > "But we are still always trusting our digital wealth to the competence and morality of some company or government." > "Crypto is a way to keep digital records that are true and accurate but *no one* has the ability to change or delete." > "Bitcoin was the first crypto to succeed in creating this uncensorable proof of wealth, and others like ethereum came next." > "It’s worth having a little bit of your investable wealth (1-10%) into the major crypto tokens as a type of asset that can be used on the internet, taken with you wherever you go, and impossible for any government or company to oopsie-delete." cc @NTmoney im actually curious if it would land for Stone Cold
