Takeaways from Bitcoin Asia
1. I got 0.00000898 BTC from odin.fun (Bitcoin's pump.fun) scratch card
2. Kinda related to (1). Randomly got introduced to @lu-lu who actually followed me and commented on one of my casts few days before the event. The first Farcaster I met IRL!
3. Institutions look at Bitcoin as digital gold, long term asset that all future money is gonna funnel to. So whatever that's not Bitcoin is just game money that large tradfi companies won't invest into long term. To an extreme even RWA needs to be on the Bitcoin layer
4. I ran into my english literature prof and a taxi driver who bought Bitcoin during the COVID era and know nothing much about Web3 or crypto.
The prof sees it as a vessel for an idealistic future, while the taxi driver just wants to sell and take profit. You have both the idealist and the pragmatist as part of the new wave of retail investors
Interesting event with interesting convos. To my surprise, not all are Bitcoin maxis!
