Crypto should be for everyone
I started writing about crypto because I realised that most of the explanations and videos on the web are aimed at people who are already technical. They aren't going to help most people. I want to open the subject up so that anyone can understand the basics and, perhaps more importantly, the challenges and risks that don't get talked about enough.
Bitcoin was originally designed to be democratic, available for everyone even if you don't have a bank account, but there is still too high a level of crypto-inequality. Too many people who think it's unavailable to them. Yes, it's a technical subject, but that doesn't mean it can't be explained simply.
People are making life-changing amounts of money by investing in crypto - paying off student loans or even mortgages - while others are being left behind because the industry doesn't cater for people who aren't so comfortable with new technology. I want to change that by explaining it all in simple terms, honestly and openly.
