Crypto Context
Catching up with my cryptocurrency expert leaves me baffled – what have I gotten myself into! On the upside, crypto keeps me mentally active.
Since 12 June (Day 163), when I bought my first crypto, its world has been baffling me. Apparently, It’s simple 🤔. Maybe it’s me that’s simple? – you see, aren’t you proud? I’m calling it “crypto” instead of its whole cryptocurrency! I still don’t understand how I get money out of it!
There was a Treasure Key competition, which was making me passive income. From what I could tell, I put in AU$40 and got back US$10. Later the expert advised, it was part of a competition, not “proper” crypto (but it is – sort of). Nonetheless, I had fun and learnt from the experience.
For instance, this type of competition reminded me of the poker/slot machines grouped and linked to a big prize. Tying together a group of slot machines could have you win not only the money on your device but also the “jackpot” total of all the other machines.
After a few minutes of shuffling crypto from one wallet to buying things and staking coins in different denominations, as I hung up, I thought to myself, how far down the rabbit hole am I prepared to go – blind? 😎 Guess that’s something we will write about as the year progresses.
