Going thru this now with an 11 yo and 14 yo. It’s a non-stop, swash-buckling battle to get them to put down their phones and do literally anything IRL. Their attention has been completely hijacked, their childhood robbed from them, and I fe

Agreed. At the risk of a shitstorm of downvotes, tokenized media could be part of a solution, especially at the consumer level. Authenticate real videos via a mint button/QR that airdrops you a token from creator. May require platforms

Exactly. What this does is create a wide open space for a "anti-establishment" crypto payments system. But one that people actually understand and trust. Fiat will likely be UOA for stage one of the transition to crypto. But as mo

1. Target specific towns and villages in need; perhaps anywhere M-Pesa is used is a good place to start?? 2. Hire mobile money agents in those places to facilitate crypto to fiat exchange (when necessary) 3. Monitor progress extensively. 4.
