If being lazy is my talent, copying the right people is my most valuable skill set.

Since youth, I was known for being a slacker and never the “smart” guy.

For this scenario, my definition of smart people are those that are being rewarded the most for their high IQ. Mathematicians, Engineers, Software Developers, etc. They were mostly what we used to call ‘nerds’ in high school.

Now, with their above average salaries, what are these nerds spending their pot of gold on? A fashionable apparel? A car when their work requires them to sit in front of a computer for 10 hours a day?

Some probably will, but I think the legitimate ones will prefer to upgrade their virtual characters or bid for a Charizard card instead.
The ones I encountered though, are mostly upgrading their gadgets, and investing in… Crypto.

That’s the biggest reason why. By investing in crypto, I am copying the smartest and the highest earners of my peer group (millennials). They are the ones that I believe will drive our economy forward and believing in what they believe in is unlikely to go wrong. (This is different from FOMO)

Blockchain Technology is not a hoax or “just a store of value” anymore, it does way more than that and the brightest brains in the world are working on it.
