Why Cryptocurrency Is Attractive For Younger Generations

We live in the age of instant gratification. Instant information.

My generation does not have the luxury of time. We are not afraid to try something once. We have no "fear of the unknown" because we wake up to the unknown EVERY DAY. We live in an increasingly chaotic world, one that is reflected in the candlestick charts of Cryptocurrency.

"It's a volatile market!", they say.

HA! Life is volatile. Uncharted territory is volatile. Saying "It's a volatile market" is like saying "Ice is cold." Why wouldn't it be volatile? Get your head out of the sand.

In our world of two day shipping, we expect to be able to see two day returns. It may not happen, but it is not out of the realm of possibility. Unlike the worn trail that is the stock market of our fathers, this new Cryptocurrency road is uncharted. In a world of diminishing frontiers, Cryptocurrency is completely unknown. That is why we like it.

We can be smart about it. We can invest only what we are willing to lose. Only a handful of us have more than $1,000 USD in our bank account at any time. We don't have anything to lose anyways. All of our lives have been steep cliffs and soaring highs. We are not strangers to disappointment. We are apathetic to failure because we see it everywhere, every single day.

To those who still have an AOL email address: You, who scream from your leather armchairs- "Bubble! Bubble! Just like before!"

I say to you-

It's not a bubble folks, it's a whole new stick of gum.
