Blockchain for Everyone

It has been some months since I started my humble but enjoyable journey with BCH and cryptocurrency in general. My journey started here in read.cash and then flowed into the micro-blogging platform Noise.cash. It has been amazing and I have already experienced the roller coaster ride. The market took me to a lot of ups and downs.

Since my journey began from a word-of-mouth invitation by a friend of mine, I also wanted to invite and onboard people into the cryptocurrency world. I showed some people the beauty in it and the potential income they can also enjoy.

Seeing the numbers on the various wallets and the amount I was able to withdraw from time to time, they were curious and they were interested. But the curiosity and the interest soon faded away when they saw the work needed to be put out to earn some bucks.

The common excuse or reason that I got was "I can't write, I don't have a talent in writing. I don't know what to write." It was always along the lines of that. And I was like you won't know if you will not try it, at least try it.

But I had to resign since I could not force anyone to join, and I would never force anyone to do what they weren't comfortable doing. So I just backed down thinking that I can't really take them along in the blockchain.

And then the NFTs came. I thought that "this time for sure". I tried juungle because of the cute and pretty waifuus for sale in the market. I was thinking that maybe they would like to try trading NFTs. And lo and behold, no one really cares about NFTs.

By the time, I have accepted the fact that blockchain life is not meant for everybody, I thought to myself that if they would not really appreciate cryptocurrency if they don't like how it's earned or spent.

And one day, everything changed.

Left and right, news and articles about AXIE infinity can be found anywhere. NFT-based blockchain gaming became hot news all of a sudden. People who don't even know how to buy crypto coins are getting into the game.

Alright, NOW, they are paying attention to these play-to-earn games. Now they are buying coins and tokens here and there to play games, but still, they aren't appreciating what blockchain and cryptocurrency are all about. Bit by bit, they are growing accustomed to coins and tokens. People who had no idea what pancakeswap was are now watching the market go up and down in coingecko and are waiting for coins in poocoin to be listed in other exchanges.

It just somehow put a small smile on my face that people who are not interested in cryptocurrency back then are now talking about different coins non-stop. We currently have different chat groups for different coins. As in NONSTOP.

Epilogue

In short, my belief that cryptocurrency and blockchain are the future is restored a little bit. Now I know that it's not only trading, blogging, mining, farming, and staking that will make cryptocurrency worthwhile. Just like play-to-earn games, there will be another niche or form that blockchain and cryptocurrency will take over our lives. And then, another, and then another, until every aspect of our lives is influenced by it.

The future is now.

Hey there!

As a small-time crypto enthusiast, I am excited about how much more can cryptocurrency affect our day-to-day lives. I wonder what other activities can we monetize so we can onboard more and more people into the blockchain.

We now have write-to-earn, play-to-earn, read-to-earn. I wonder what more we can do to earn some more crypto. Run-to-earn? Walk-to-earn? Lol, everything can be fun if you earn.

Anyhow, I would like to appreciate you for visiting this pretty random article. Thank you so much and as always ...

Cheers!!!
