Why do boomers stay away from crypto? Is it simply being old and too fussy and tired to try anything new? Will we be stuck in our own ways in a few decades and miss out on the next big thing?

I read this one article where this guy said that it's because it's the path of least resistance. Learning something new requires a lot of energy and it's easier just to go by what you know. something like that.

They can barely understand the internet. Explaining crypto to them is exceedingly difficult.

Now try to get them to throw money at it.

This meme is dumb as shit. "Boomer" is colloquially understood as short hand for baby boomer.

Labing another generation "boomer" is redundant and confusing.

It's not prudent to start investing in stuff you have no background knowledge of when you're already approaching retirement. It's basic risk-aversion.

>Why do boomers stay away from crypto?

because it's a distribuited over hyped database which can't scale like the centralized one. It's a solution for a non esistent problem. It's like the mass and light of Einstein, the more the mass the less the speed of the mass.
The more transaction on this over hyped peer to peer network, the less efficiency.

Internet was a really grounfbreaking technology: you can communicate with a guy with a fag million of km away from you and share pics, and chats with it.

Crypto is somenthing like gold and silver..shit that will be in crab market, owned by the jews
