Trying to explain crypto to a friend made me realize something
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Today I was talking to a friend of mine, a really skilled graphic designer that wanted to try minting NTFs but have basically 0 knowledge about blockchain.</p> <p>I was trying to explain gas fees, minting, different blockchains, proof of stake vs proof of work, and suddenly I realized something... Something that I already knew from school days.</p> <p>You haven't really completely understood something unless you can explain that easily to somebody else.</p> <p>I realized that my knowledge about blockchain and stuff is really scarce, so I'm going to read and study, because not being able to explain in simple words why the fuck stuff works the way it works affects my ability to understand where I'm putting my money.</p> <p>This is probably something that is not very interesting for you guys, but maybe other people are in my situation...
