Cryptoday - Some Hard Truths About Crypto
I've been doing a lot of soul-searching this month. Initially, it was pretty clear to me that I wanted to stay in the crypto space, but since unemployment has gifted me with a lot of free time I've been deliberating on precisely why I wanted to stay. Over the last week or so, I've been going back to the basics and checking if my initial assumptions about crypto are still correct and relevant. Part of that research output is a new video series I'm informally calling "Why Buy?", and each video focuses on the value proposition of a given coin or token. So far I've done videos for Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, and BNB, and plan to do videos for every crypto in the top 100. (You can check all of them out here.) But for this week's Cryptoday, I'm going to be going through some of my more difficult observations, and discuss the challenging realities of crypto in 2023.
