To the people who think tribalism and complexity is holding crypto back
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>First I'll address the arguement that toxic tribalism is stopping crypto from going mainstream.</p> <p>Ask an android user what they think of apple</p> <p>Ask a Playstation user what they think of Xbox</p> <p>Ask a PC gamer what they think of consoles</p> <p>Ask a Linux user what they think of windows</p> <p>Ask a Reddit user what they think of Facebook</p> <p>Ask a "the last of us" fan what they of "the last of us two"</p> <p>This list literally goes on for an eternity.</p> <p>The problem has nothing to do with crypto, it's just people in general feel the need to defend their choices. There's no need to worry about it holding us back from any progress in the future. </p> <p>Second I'll address the arguement that crypto is too complicated for mainstream.</p> <p>Crypto addresses look complex the first time you see one. But remember this is 1 string of letters and numbers you need to copy and paste.</p> <p>Bank cards have:</p> <p>An account number</p> <p>A sort code</p> <p>A card number</p> <p>Expiry dates</p> <p>Security code</p> <p>And recently a online passcode to authenticate the purchase.</p> <p>The only reason you no longer see traditional banking as complicated, is because you have used it so many times it no longer confuses you.</p> <p>If you've ever used a decentralised app with metamask. You'll know what I mean when I say, it's so much easier to use than having to log in to a centralised service. You can make a trade on uniswap within 10 seconds of opening your laptop.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>There isn't one, just stop being negative.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> Kind Regards R
