Don't play bagholder bingo! I see many so-called crypto investors and crypto VCs who know next to nothing about blockchain technology and who have very little understanding of the general crypto market dynamics throwing money into hot air projects.  You win by anticipating where the market will go by making the right bets on projects that have a chance of delivering on this premise. If you don't understand anything about the technology you are investing in or why that specific technology may capture future market value (and there needs to be a compelling reason why folks), you shouldn't be investing in it!  I've lost count how many times I've met crypto investors -- even VCs -- who can't even explain what they have invested in. #crypto #investments #marketing #blockchain

I'm a firm supporter of crypto being part of the future, especially where blockchain as technology can innovate specific industries. However, there are a lot of problems to overcome first, especially when considering crypto's most popular use case (as a decentralized currency). Here's a good article that highlights why skeptics (and justifiably so) are not drinking the crypto kool-aid just yet. https://lnkd.in/fHru-gk
