Charles Hoskinson and My Crypto Experience
I first got interested in cryptocurrency after viewing Charles Hoskinson's educational video about Bitcoin on Udemy - many years ago when Bitcoin was well below $100.
A little later, because I saw Bitcoin's huge scalability problem looming in the near future, the agravating 6 confirmations transaction time, and my cognitive dissonance about mining, I bought my first Ripple XRP - at under $0.03.
I became a moderator on XRPTalk (a forum dedicated to the XRP token) and stayed with them until a few months after Jed McCaleb and Ripple Corporation had a split.
See:
Jed went on to start Stellar.
And as an early adopter, I was airdropped a generous amount of Stellar Lumens.
But while I was a moderator for XRPTalk and bashing all the hype over the multi-postponed, "vaporware" launch of Ethereum, Charles (Co-Founder of Ethereum) slipped onto the forum and basically allowed me to ramble on; effectively letting me make an ass out of myself, putting my foot straight into my mouth several times - THEN he introduced himself!
D'oh!

And ever since then, I've been a huge fan of Charles.
Another Wonderful (and Timely) Video from a favorite Crypto Space Icon - Charles Hoskinson
Viewing this insightful video today proved to be perfect timing for me personally; exactly what I needed, especially after checking my crypto balances in my wallets and exchange accounts.
This extended Bear market can wear even the most ardent crypto investor (myself included).
Charle's video quickly reminded me of why I jumped down this strangely fascinating rabbit hole we call the crypto space many years ago.
There is a wealth of hidden gems and wisdom bombs contained in the video that everyone will benefit from - no matter the level of crypto expertise or blockchain experience.
I highly recommend this video for all crypto afficionados; both the veterans and the neophytes of the space.
So without further adieu, here's the video, enjoy:

About the Author
Believing that school was too boring, he dropped out of High School early; only to earn an AA, BS and MBA in less than 4 years much later in life – while working full-time as a Navy/Marine Corps Medic.
In spite of a fear of heights and deep water, he performed high altitude, free-fall parachute jumps and hazardous diving ops in deep, open ocean water.
After 24 years of active duty, he retired in Asia.
Since then, he's been a full-time, single papa and actively pursuing his varied passions (Writing, Disruptive Technology, Computer Science and Cryptocurrency - plus more hobbies too boring or bizarre for most folk).
He lives on an island paradise with his teenage daughter, longtime girlfriend and three dogs.
