...it’s that crypto is still FAR from being mainstream.
Since splitting from my ex I’ve jumped on the online dating bandwagon and had lots and lots of conversations with women from all walks of life; professional women that work in the city to single mums to hairdressers to teachers etc.
One thing that struck me was that hardly any of them had even heard the term cryptocurrency, let alone know what it is.
If they’ve never heard of cryptocurrency then I mention Bitcoin and I’d say probably 50% then go “oh yeah I’ve heard of bitcoin” but many still don’t know what it is.
I went on a date last night with a girl who works for a major bank. She works in risk, but previously worked in fraud. I mention cryptocurrency...nothing. Blank stare. I mention Bitcoin, and her response was “oh I’ve heard of that, it’s bad isn’t it? Used for lots of money laundering.”. Or something to that effect.
She works in a major global bank, and doesn’t have a clue about any of this. The only thing she knows is that it’s ‘bad’.
I just thought it was worth sharing because sometimes we can get caught up in this world and not realise just how early we are. If anything it makes me more bullish, because once the world wakes up, things will start to get really interesting!
