keep going tell us the story grandpa!!
Right now crypto seems worthless to me because no one is really using it, No goods are being purchased by it. Only using it as gold stock which is also worthless.
What are you going to do with your gold stocks when society falls? Go to the bank and ask them to chip off some gold for you?
Okay, say maybe you saved soem physical gold, are you going to carry that heavy shit around how will you trade for small things? Chip it off?

At the end of the day guns and ammo or weapons and bomb making knowledge in generalare superior.

Around 2013 I was playing EVE Online and some people would broadcast BUY BTC around Jita. Sometimes they had ships named the same thing and I convo'd one about what is BTC. They said something about it being internet space money and that it was the future. I thought it sounded cool so I looked into it and eventually bought some around $200. That 15 sec dialog changed my life. Fucking nutz but sometimes thats the way she goes. Later I found this biz, talked to someone else and bought a bunch of link.

Friend of mine told me about Bitcoin and the block chain technology in early 2017 over coffee ,late night at one of our hangout in the city ,he showed me online the price of 1 Bitcoin that was around 65000 INR and we were foolish enough to consider it another click bait add or a diminishing technology and didn’t look ahead into the matter , Fast forward 4 months ; price of 1 bitcoin double nearly 1.4 lakhs and that kind of growth grabbed my attention and i got deeper and deeper into the technology starting by learning the basics of blockchain technology to knowing how to mine bitcoin to how to trade it , Right now i am completely invested with all my earning into this budding technology and hopping that it would be the right bet at right time.
