Look, let’s be honest; if you decided to get into cryptocurrency after reading about it in the mainstream media, and not from your weird mate Chris, then chances are you missed out on it all and before you could wrap your head around what that chaining-up-blocks part of it was, suddenly the whole thing was over.
Annoyingly, Chris is one of those guys who’s spent his entire life constantly telling you about the Next Big Thing; You saw him riding a Segway while wearing google glass once and you’re pretty sure he still has a bunch of betamax tapes, so when he started telling you about some kind of internet currency you paid him no attention and asked him when exactly he planned to move out of his Mother’s basement.
Thing was, that weird bastard Chris was right for once. And now he’s the CEO of a start-up that has its own crytocurrency that uses the block-chain to create new start-ups that then mine something or other. You’re not sure really. Chris can’t really explain it either. Whatever the case, you missed out and weirdo Chris seems to have made enough money to finally move out of his Mum’s house.
Good for him. Bastard.
But don’t despair, you might have missed out on Crypto, but there’s plenty of other things you can get involved with, and you too can then be someone’s…
