Episode 1: Why should I care? What’s in it for me? Why is crypto important (it's not just about making $$$)?

- Why crypto is interesting- Feeling like you're too late to the party- 10 reasons crypto is useful- Why Bitcoin is important for social justice-----The corresponding blog post with links and images:https://www.michaelcaloz.com/2021/04/11/cryptocurrency-part-1-why-should-i-care-whats-in-it-for-me-why-is-crypto-important-its-about-a-lot-more-than-just-making-money/-----Note (from after I completed this episode): I want to take responsibility here for a misstep I believe I made: I used some lengthy quotes from two of Alex Gladstein's excellent articles (on financial privilege and human rights) in a less-than-ideal way. Although I was clear in the episode when I was quoting another article (and that the articles were linked in my blog post), I realize in retrospect that it doesn't feel right to me that I didn't name the author on-air (since Alex deserves credit for his writing). Also, since I had felt that his articles made such important points, I quoted from them at greater length than I think is appropriate for a quote. So, I want to apologize for that and share the two links right here:https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/check-your-financial-privilegehttps://reason.com/video/2021/02/05/bitcoin-is-protecting-human-rights-around-the-world/
