I didn’t plan to write about Crypto today. It’s not a topic that interests me much. But every other question I receive is about Cryptos and NFTs, and I think it might make sense to vomit my thoughts about this fantastic world that my boomer brain can’t fully grasp.
I sometimes question my possibilist approach to almost everything. I will find convincing reasons behind every side of each debate about any topic.
