Conversations with a Friend. Part 4

By TwoDogsCaged | TwoDogsCaged | 26 Feb 2026


It has been awhile since I had written about the friend I had been talking to regarding cryptocurrency.

In the last post, I had written that he had told me he was somewhat frustrated with the timing of his possible interest in cryptocurrency, or at least his thawing about whether or not it was something worth considering.

Well, we are in the midst of a great buying opportunity. At least from my perspective, and form the prices I had purchased beginning in 2022.

Time will tell as we had a recent conversation about the prices as I had followed up with him from that previous conversation from a few months ago.

I again reminded him, I was not pressuring him on investing, that was a personal decision based on his goals, risk appetite, and general belief or disbelief in cryptocurrency.

We discussed the current macro signals that appear to be bullish, institutional and government adoption of cryptocurrency, and we also discussed the ideas about using a brokerage so to speak like Coinbase or Binance, and whether or not a crypto wallet might be appropriate. 

I also introduced him to the COIN app. Now, this is not an endorsement of the COIN app for the readers who see this post. It is a statement of fact from my experience. I shared with him that I had been able to make hundreds of dollars in cryptocurrency from that app that I had traded for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano, Jasmy and the like. Again not an endorsement of those cryptocurrencies, just a statement of fact.  I mentioned it might be a safe way for him to get involved cryptocurrency with the only risk really being time on the app spent. 

Finally for now, I am shocked that I ma having cryptocurrency conversations with him, and that he did not outright reject them on premise.

Cryptocurrency is a fascinating idea, one that has many confused, scared and dismissive of the concept. However, it also is intriguing and likely a large part of the future.
