how do yâall deal with IRL crypto sceptics? today at a pre wedding dinner i ended up having a crypto convo đ«Ł (which is just as bad as talking about religion or politics) itâs cos i mentioned im going to cannes so it was kinda unavoidable i was put under the spotlight to answer these questions - whatâs a usecase for the blockchain apart from those âape NFTsâ - facebook invested billions in the metaverse and that was a fail so why do people still bother? - whatâs the point of crypto when itâs so volatile? - whoâs using it every day? - why is it better than normal banking? - whats the point of a âcrypto social mediaâ if tiktok pays creators already? - you canât pay for this dinner using crypto if you offered the waiter stablecoin it would be impossible bro worked in finance aswell so it was like an exam phew im pretty sure i passed the exam but was quite eye opening to see a different perspective everyone ive ever spoken to irl (usually my age) have been super interested so it was first time having an experience like this

guessing you crushed the answers to all these questions because i couldâve come up with atleast 2 different answers to each of âem to prove a point

yes i think going to conferences and spending time here has really helped me to learn all the usecases for blockchain/crypto and ofc i have my own personal story too but i did feel a little sad i think i have been in a bubble đ

Weâre all in bubbles & we cant control much. Question for me is - does your bubble nourish you, enable you to be your authentic passionate self? đ«§đ«§đ«§
