You definitely have heard of crypto before unless you just woke up from a coma. So, I think it’s fair to say that everyone has heard about it and almost everyone knows someone some how who is already investing in it (please god don’t be offended if you just heard the term for the first time 😉 )
Right?
But the fact is, almost no one knows WHY he/she is investing in it..
Let alone what everyone thinks it means who isn’t investing in crypto, or as some rather call it, Web 3.0.
So I thought this would be a good time and space for elaborate on what it is, what it can be and why it is most probably here to stay.
- Staggering amounts of “smart money” is being poured into WEB 3.0
Seriously. Even if you do your proper due diligence, you won’t ever be able to find out and/or calculate exactly how much money has been and is being invested in to all the different projects by VC’s, institutions and wealthy private investors. We talk about more than 30 billion (!) dollars. With something that’s called an ICO (initial coin offering) entrepreneurs with original ideas within the crypto space make sure they receive a lot of capital in return for the native coin of the new protocol that he is inventing. Everyone who invests money in return for some new coins is effectively betting on the idea these coins will be worth a lot more in the future than they are now. So, if you pay attention, you can be pretty confident that when so much “smart money” is entering the space they know that this isn’t going away any time soon.
- The world is waking up to the fact that you can not trust governments
If this needs some explanation to you, it will probably be shocking what I’m about to tell you. Governments are effectively stealing your money as long as you can remember. Some would say that taxation in and on itself is already stealing, but that’s debatable. What isn’t debatable is that deliberately inflating the money supply by just “printing” more money whenever the central banks think they need to literally means your money loses value over time. If central banks & governments need to “print” themselves out of the problems they created themselves the money supply expands significantly. This basically means that all the money you saved is worth less than it was before they “printed” all that money. This is not something to be lightly regarded, if inflation is 7% your 100.000 dollars of savings is worth 93.000 dollars at the end of the year. And since the “new money” that is being “printed” starts in Wall Street and by big companies the time the money drains down into society it is already worth less so that the difference between the rich and the poor is getting bigger, again. Besides this, the fact that all the governments around the world can create new laws within days or weeks without a proper democratic process (see the last two years of pandemic challenges) or can seize citizens money without even a trial or sufficient charges (see Canada) make people not trusting their governments anymore and effectively calls for decentralization.
- The crypto adoption curve predicts over 1 billion users in 2027
Yes. Read that line again. 1 billion users. Around December 2021 the estimates of total crypto users was no more than 300 million users, which counts for less than 4% of the worldwide population. Famous On Chain analyst Willy Woo said that the adoption curve of Web 3.0 currently is comparable with the curve of the internet back in the nineties. He meant that it seems to go pretty slow to normal in the beginning but gradually then suddenly mass adoption is there! He went on by saying that, compare to the adoption curve of the internet, it is now 1994! So, what do you think happens next?
- Better, quicker, cheaper & faster
Eventually everything gets demonetized by something better, quicker, cheaper & faster. Just take a good look at history. Cars replaced horses, electricity replaced the coal-steam combination, planes replaced boats, IP telephony replaced traditional land line telephone systems, WIFI replaced kabel, mp3 replaced cd’s, Spotify replaced mp3’s, Netflix replaced traditional video rental stores and the list goes on and on and on. Wake up. Bitcoin is here to replace the traditional monetary system simply because it’s safer, quicker, cheaper and faster (payments are being done on the lightning network but that’s a topic for another time). The whole DEFI space is here to replace traditional finance (banking) and for example NFT’s are here for a significant add on in the traditional art & gaming industrie. Simply, because it is better. Think of Darwins quote about his evolution theory:
“It’s not the strongest of the species that survives, even not the most intelligent, it is the one that is the most adaptable to change.”
And now think of this, is a decentralized, open source piece of code that is being improved constantly by the smartest developers in the world more adaptable or a centrally organized company or government?
You pick!
- The metaverse gives additional opportunities that “our” world can’t
This will be a short one. But with all the debates going on about environmental issues and challenges we might realize that we can’t go on like this forever. Of course it’s difficult te be sure how serious the situation really is because of all the propaganda that is going on around climate change but what we do know that growth isn’t eternal. At least, not in the way we thought. The metaverse might very well be the solution for a lot of things since digital cyber space is indefinitely. This means that there will be a lot of new ideas and possibilities to expand, just not in the “real” world. But we do can create extra economic growth by, for example, buying digital property and renting it out! Believe me, the possibilities are endless and because of that I am confident this reason deserves to be in my top 5.
Final thoughts
This is all I got for you today! Bringing it all together I think there are enough reasons for you to consider jumping on board or, if you’ve done so already, dive in deeper so you can maximize your gains! It is all just so extremely exciting and since we are so damn early we can all profit from this, each and everyone of us, on our own way. Please make sure you catch this train 🙂

Marc
Meet Marc—with a unique history of studying psychology, poker, and performing sales on high levels, he eventually ended up with a curious eye for the world of money. He dove into traditional investing and even surfed the wild waves of "shitcoins" in the crypto space. But it was the wake-up call of the 2020 pandemic that really opened his eyes to the true power governments wield and how little control individuals have over their financial destiny. The broken fiat currencies within the traditional financial system and the rampant scams, lies, and rug-pulling in the crypto space lit a fire within him, driving his unwavering enthusiasm for 100% Bitcoin.
Fueled by this newfound awareness and his connection with a company called Awake Origins, Marc embarked on a remarkable spiritual journey, selling everything and traveling the globe with his family for nearly three years. Along the way, he couldn't help but ponder some big questions about money, economics, and global wealth disparities. These musings eventually led him to the fascinating world of Bitcoin, a place he's never looked back from. Today, Marc dedicates his time to helping folks and businesses seamlessly integrate Bitcoin into their daily lives, all while continuing his global adventures.
