Where there is smoke...

Where there is smoke...

I have been thinking about, learning about, and occasionally writing about cryptocurrency since 2022. A brief recap of my history with cryptocurrency is this. I initially thought about it as "monopoly money," basically worthless to something that is likely to change my and many others' financial futures if invested properly.

To me, the key phrase I wrote was "invested properly." Now, a short caveat, I am not providing investment advice or offering suggestions to others. I am writing about my philosophy with cryptocurrency.

On to the point, where there is smoke, there is fire as the saying goes. Since I began learning about cryptocurrency, and then later investing in it. I have learned to take the advice of Warren Buffet. Invest in something you believe in (nod to Poison song as well), invest in a solid project. I believe there is a lot of smoke with cryptocurrency. Some of it is a mirage, a distraction to get suckers to pay for a nothing burger. However, there is fire with a few cryptocurrency options.

I have been able to improve my positions with several cryptocurrency coins or tokens that I firmly believe in. I have chosen what I believe will be my "millionaire maker" in the next ten years and have set up what I believe to be a solid HODL investment for the future. This is a bit of speculation, but I believe it is well thought out, not emotionally driven, and based on solid projects.

It appears that politics are playing a role in the down market currently, and I would bet the economy, and market will continue to move forward in the near future. 

I believed the fire is the solid foundation of a few crypto projects, I believe the fire is the oncoming legislation that will benefit social believe and provide legitimacy for the average skeptic, and I believe the fire is the ongoing investment in various cryptocurrency projects by mainstream legitimate businesses and banks.

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.
