Seeing this young man in hoodie, baseball cap and crocs on national TV schooling older financial "professionals" is proof of how technology is changing our world faster and faster with each cycle....

This kid was in diapers when most of us were deciding to invest in Google or Yahoo on the new disruptive technology called the internet..... and look at him now teaching that older financial professional.

Older CNBC financial reporter literally says on international television:

"instant global cash finality...I don't know what those words mean, they sound like terms of art."

Time for more schooling. 

Have we all learned now that we shouldn't be looking to CNBC and Bloomberg for cutting edge financial discussion?

You think the Average Salvadoran can just make and use a PayPal or Apple Pay account? They absolutely can not. Same goes for literally billions of other people around the world.

Anyone of them can make a Twitter if they have the infrastructure aka a computer and access to the internet. They can also download Chivo. They can download Muun, strike, blue wallet, green wallet, etc. In El Salvador people can even pay bills in BTC. It’s an accessible, flexible and entirely better system so many people now have at their finger tips globally. It will take awhile to get it all built out, dialed in and get people accustomed to it. But it’s there to be figured out at a raw baseline level today

Literally no one I know (that I’ve talked with this stuff about) understands the difference between Venmo and a non-custodial bitcoin/LN wallet + the bitcoin network. But there is a world of difference.

It’s:

Centralized variable ledgers that run on inferior archaic systems (slow/costly) that can be censored and where funds can be confiscated/frozen (and often are)

VS.

Free accessible portals to decentralized/immutable/uncensorable/trustless/unconfiscatable hard-money on an efficient 24/7 network that can’t ever be interrupted or controlled

The reality is the bitcoin network is ground breaking, one-of-a-kind and seeing the global demand. Thing is anyone who wants to use the network must use the native token (bitcoin the asset) to access the inbuilt utilities and use cases of the network.

This delineation isn’t articulated or understood nearly enough in my opinion.

    • By the way, if you're into stuff like this, you might wanna check out https://thepythagoras.com/. They have some neat articles about ancient civilizations and their contributions to science and math. It’s really interesting how much we owe to these early thinkers.
    • The Dendera Zodiac is such an amazing piece of history. Imagine ancient Egyptians looking up at the same stars we do now and creating this detailed map. It's mind-blowing! So, what do I think about it? I think it's a fascinating blend of art and astronomy. Those ancient folks really knew their stuff. The way they incorporated their gods and mythologies into the constellations is just brilliant. And it's not just about the stars, it’s a glimpse into how they viewed the universe and their place in it.
    • FIFA's collaboration with Algorand represents a significant milestone for blockchain technology. Algorand will serve as the official blockchain platform for FIFA, supporting events such as the FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and the FIFA World Cup in Qatar in 2022. This partnership is poised to enhance FIFA's digital asset management while boosting Algorand's visibility through advertising and promotional opportunities. On another note, I've been tuning into African football recently. The match between Kanifing East FC and Latrikunda United was unexpectedly impressive. African football often goes underappreciated, yet the skill and enthusiasm in these matches are evident. We can expect even more significant development and excitement in African football with increased attention and support.

      Hello, Darlene, I just love your name, I had a cousin named Darline, and had a classmate also named Darlene! It's a pleasure to know another Darlene! Especially a Spiritual Sister! There's some websites, Ministry Ideaz , JW Stuff.com, and Etsy that I use to order my yearly buttons for the Conventions! They always send me what I order, and their also Jehovah's Witnesses, that send us the merchandise we order!  You can check out these websites, and they might have what your looking for! I hope I have been helpful in assisting you, Darlene! Agape love, Shirley!😀
