how do y’all deal with IRL crypto sceptics? today at a pre wedding dinner i ended up having a crypto convo 🫣 (which is just as bad as talking about religion or politics) it’s cos i mentioned im going to cannes so it was kinda unavoidable i was put under the spotlight to answer these questions - what’s a usecase for the blockchain apart from those “ape NFTs” - facebook invested billions in the metaverse and that was a fail so why do people still bother? - what’s the point of crypto when it’s so volatile? - who’s using it every day? - why is it better than normal banking? - whats the point of a “crypto social media” if tiktok pays creators already? - you can’t 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

You’re lucky you know how to calm pressure and let people understand what they don’t. I can’t even face a crowd in my case

yes!!! i always like to hear people out even if i disagree and he was really curious about privacy i mentioned about being able to verify age without knowing all other details and how there is a decentralised google docs etc and that seemed to win him over
