Crypto didn't need to build banks in numerous locations yet it solved cross border payments

One of the funny thing about some people in crypto and most of everyone just outside looking in is that they have this skepticism on if the technology is actually here to stay or if it will go away sooner, well, I have learnt one thing from this behaviour for sure and that is that most times you need to hold adults by the hands to the farm and show the difference between food and poison, not that they don't already have an idea but the way their brain works, consistent treatment on the topic is the only way to break the ice, so this is why we write article all day about crypto and yet so little make a move, sad?

Far from it, it isn't sad, it is rather a good thing, better to get them to slowly join than have them move in rapidly without any clear understanding of the system, only to get disappointed of course.

Crypto education at its crucial point

The hardest point of on-boarding is actually sitting people down to explain how this works because with existing systems, people didn't really need to care about the technical aspects of these structures to use it, but of course, this have proven to be a catalyst for the amount of control that system has had over our finances, you simply cannot kick against what you really don't understand how it works underneath the sheets, so the banking system did a great job fooling people to put their money in pots that had holes underneath.

The control that comes with storing wealth in crypto comes with a huge responsibility which every user must take up, so this increases the need for vast education of the general public on what crypto is, how it works at its very basic state and the benefits of the technology.

For businesses, it's rather easier

I strongly believe crypto needs to be marketed to businesses rather than individuals, why? Well, it's simple, businesses value "transactions" because they have to either facilitate or validate it 24hrs round the clock day in day out. Pushing this technology to businesses enables them to create and offer more efficient ways for their customers to access their products and services.

Looking specifically at global businesses that offer services to people all around the world, crypto fits perfectly into this system as it enables the business to process cross-border payments at ease and speed, one of the most underrated features of crypto and blockchain technology. Crypto solved the flaws of crypto border payments, speed at transactions delivery time, whilst also eliminating the need for an intermediary without breaking a bank by literally having to raise buildings around the world that only take up land space and put us in debt traps, slavery for our own money.

This is one of crypto's biggest marketing features, sometimes it's just crazy that we don't use it quite often. The days of wondering if the technology is here to stay should have been long gone with the numerous roll outs of projects and initiatives to build better and advanced products and services atop this technology.
