Let’s Get-Rich-Quick
Right from time crypto has never been about the monetary gains and rewards but rather about eliminating the middleman. This of course is the aims and agenda of the man himself satoshi Nakamoto. But then, the sun came up and reality set in, making crypto to be known for the wrong reasons most times.
And although the prayer for the free and aware crypto geeks is to know crypto one way or the other but knowing it for the wrong reasons can be harmful to not only the community but also to the crypto noob.
The reason is that you will never be able to win like those who want total freedom in the sense that the moment you see small profits you are quick to run back to fiat and spend.
Many people have even been lured by scammers like the recent Malone scam that was pulled on just one unsuspecting crypto user making him lose 4000 BTC in the process. Although he wasn’t lured in the hope of good profits but some people kept falling into the get-rich-quick path that crypto seems to offer to some people.
My take is that we can surely make money from crypto but that doesn’t mean it’ll make you rich. If you want to be rich then you’ll have to know exactly what type of technology it is that you are dealing with in the first place.
