They already did, but they needed to call it decentralized to attract the organic open source communities that make them free money. They don't want anyone fucking over the integrity of the network so they'd keep 2/3 of it for their corporate connections, and they'd probably want to keep the press away from it until they're ready. Don't want too much going to actual randos too so they should make the ICO minimum-buy around 100 Etherium. Sound like anything you know?

The article is trying to pose it as "millenials think they're the rich, they are FOOLS!" when in reality it's "millenials know that fucking over higher-wealth people is a bad idea because that includes their parents and grandparents, and will include them when they come of age". You don't fuck your future. "News" tries to sell the opposite advice to those easily influenced.

Alright I'll bite. First off I'm assuming you're a normie with low funds, so no Robinhood is a massive crime for you.

>which online trading platform to use
Most traders get utterly fucked at common places because of the $5-$8 trading fee. If you're buying $1,000 of stock and you pay 5 to buy and 5 to sell, you lost 1% of your money when you'll statistically not make more than 5-7% in a YEAR. You want to sign up for Vanguard with a minimum of $3,000, buy into a total market setup like VTSMX. It has no trading fees and instead charges 0.16% of your portfolio annually.
>how you first started trading
I started with Robinhood, dumping $400/month into it and buying up single stocks in multiple sectors (pharma, tech, insurance, construction, delivery, telecommunications, agriculture, media). I made 8% gains when the market only gained 6%, so it was decent for my 10 month trial before I sold it all to buy my condo.
>your approach to first time trading
I researched the fuck out of everything and took it all with a grain of salt. I compared /biz/ threads to any google top 15 results for "good stock portfolio", "first time stock picks", etc. When I wanted to buy into a new industry I'd google something like " best telecommunication stock", "fastest growing telecommmunication stock", "most promising telecommunication stock". Then I'd compare and contrast and see which ones people thought were good because of their past and which ones people thought were good because of their potential, and I balanced a combination of the two depending on the industry. It's retardedly easy, but it gives a real feel for the system if you have a passion for learning.
>how you select your purchases/tip off's
See above. I also had 10-15% of my portfolio in meme stocks from /robinhood/ threads, which paid off handsomely a good amount of the time, but when a meme stock is dying it can die hard. Risk vs Reward.
>tactics employed when there are rises/drops in stock value
Alcoholism.

Alright I'll bite. There are ways to make money online, yes, but none of them are commercialized or easily available because in for *any* case where you can just sign up easily, learn it in a few days, and start selling a service online, there are thousands of people that will do it cheaper, so they do. That's why stuff like fiverr exists; I have somebody who I regularly employ on there and I essentially pay them $3/hour. If you really want to make money online you have to carve your own way; everyone's already doing purchases from alibaba (mass purchasing from china) and selling on ebay, so don't bother getting into that now. Your best bet is to find a service/product that certain people (with money) would want, make a website to offer that service/product, and market like a motherfucker. Look up SEO, make an active facebook/twitter/myspace/instagram, literally anything, the more posts you have on more platforms, the more likely your page will show up on google searches because it has more branches. (Even myspace helps, which is absurd). You need to be your own business online; nobody will pay you properly because thousands will do it for less out of boredom or desperation or a lack of self worth.

But you're ignoring the tax cost of the land, plus mortgages, plus maintenance. Solar panels are only profitable if you already own swathes of land in a sunny area and the government funds you because you're considered a Solar Farm.

This. If you're near any wildlife, or if any local laws prohibit inhibition of tourism or any other vague shit, you straight up get your farm stolen by the state.

Committees want to make money too, and bottoming out in your financial asset is their favorite pastime.
