RE: Cryptocurrency: It Will Either Make Us All Rich...Or Totally Broke

Right now crypto seems to be occupying the space that Linux does in a world dominated by Windows and to a lesser extent, macOS. While in the news, we've squirrled ourselves amongst the nooks and crannies while slowly gaining mindshare form a certain subset with the ability to drive the tecnology forward.

Frankly, I'm in favor of anything that can reduce/eliminate the nightmare I had while heading overseas and having to deal with the SWIFT system.

The fees to move money around were crazy. I only found out when I returned to the US that everytime I withdrew money from a German ATM, not only was I paying their fee, but my bank back home was charging me an additional fee as well.

Converting from dollars to euros cost you, not to mention the outrageous fee charged to wire money back home. So I'm willing to place a big bet on crypto in order to mitigate the worst of that and decentralize my life.
