Finding Humanity in Cryptocurrency
We are just under a decade removed from Satoshi Nakamoto introducing Bitcoin to the world. Since then, there have been a flurry of disruptive technologies and numerous communities around cryptocurrencies of all stripes.
Fortunes have been made and lost in whirlwinds of investors entering and exiting the space. We have seen schisms break open and communities unite. To suggest that cryptocurrency is only one thing does it a disservice.
Crypto is not going away, because it lives on in the most human way possible. More than anything else, cryptocurrencies are communities. With all the focus on prices these days, I wanted to remind people why cryptocurrencies are great in the first place.
Of course price is important, but it is far from the most important aspect. Money, exchange, and monetary systems are ubiquitous throughout recorded history, and for good reason.
