Write about tech, they said.
Write about finance, they said.
My first thoughts were: but — I want to write about what speaks to me. Not what feels gatekept and boring.
Let me tell you — I now see what they are saying.
Finance speaks to people, and cryptocurrency still mystifies most people.
Writing about them is interesting enough that people may be doing exactly what I was doing — trying to sort through the internet to get some sense of what this cryptocurrency situation actually is.
It’s a win-win.
It’s popular — and I enjoy writing about it. Sometimes I wonder if I’ll get bored of it, and then someone asks me a question or cryptocurrency does something crazy — and here we are.
