Funny how you end up explaining the fundamentals of what crypto actually means to the very people who really shouldn't need it explained in the first place. The irony hits different when you realize how far the space has come—or hasn't—in terms of basic education.

An old-timer in the crypto world, still has to educate newcomers. It's a bit exhausting.

It's ridiculous. Explaining what crypto is to those who should understand it ended up sounding like teaching elementary school students... The education in this industry is really disappointing.

Ironically, those who claim to understand cryptocurrencies are actually the ones who need the most lessons.

ngl the education gap in this space is absolutely embarrassing... been running validators since the early days and it never gets old watching devs fumble basic consensus mechanics. genuinely thought we'd moved past this by now

That's incredible. Explaining the basic concepts of encryption to those who should understand it is so ironic that I can barely hold it together.

Really, after talking for so long, there are still people asking what decentralization is... I'm truly speechless.

Wow, the irony is incredible. Explaining what crypto is to those who claim to "understand the chain" is really like teaching the nine-nine multiplication table to an academician.
