I've got blockchain fever
I started this year getting marginally invested in Bitcoin and Ethereum and enjoyed the burst from $3,500 up and about $200 up respectively. But my fascination with blockchain projects grew; even though I still struggle to understand the math behind it, I think in time blockchain is going to revolutionize pretty much every industry. Once artificial intelligence is further integrated, we'll see even more seismic shifts.
I went on to stock up on the following alt coins: OMG, Cardano (ADA), Siacoin, BAT, FunFair, PowerLedger, Solarcoin, Gridcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Ripple (begrudgingly, as it's not really a blockchain project), and, of course, Steem.
There's still many more I want to support. It's not just a monetary desire. While I'd love a penny crypto I'm heavily invested in to go parabolic, obviously, it's more about seeing the building blocks of a decentralized society laid down like bricks of a new house.
One toke over the line...
Steem is my first jump into anything crypto. I'm thinking maybe I should accept cryptos as payment for my art/merch, hmmm wheels are turning lol
Yeah man I think that's when crypto and blockchain will really surge is when they start being integrated into our daily life. For some people that's already the case but not on a mass scale - that will change.
I heard the hard part is cashing out of cryptos, to turn them into dollars can be complicated and expensive, I;d have to weigh the options to decide, because keeping cash flowing, keeps my art biz going lol
If you use an exchange like Bittrex, it's not that complicated. Cashing it out of cold storage may be harder, not sure, haven't done it yet.
