If you're podcast addict like I am you must have heard of the Joe Rogan Podcast aka JRE. If you are a Bitcoin aficionado as well you have probably heard of Andreas Antonopoulos. When these two got together to talk about the cryptocurrency revolution a few years back I have to confess it all sounded like a SciFy movie plot. The reality of it is I ended that podcast and couldn't research enough about the new technology. There is something exciting about having and touching cash and Bitcoin seemed way too abstract but that didn't keep me from wanting to "hold" one. There was a big part of me who wanted to invest in it immediately but I didn't have money to spare. I ended up missing out on the opportunity to make a lot of money but at the end of the day it's not too late.
What is the value of money? Growing up in Brazil when we had four different currencies before I was eighteen years old so to me money was always a mirage.
If you are new to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies here is a quick list of things you need to do before this weeks is up:

1- Find as many Andreas Antonopolous videos on youtube and watch them.

2- Read or listen to the book by Nathaniel Popper "Digital Gold".

3- Open a Coinbase account.

4- Download A Bitcoin wallet.

5- Bookmark sites like Coindesk and read everything about this revolution.

If you do these things you may enter the rabbit hole just like I did and never go back.

I'm not sure I'll ever be a millionaire but if it ever happens it won't me with dollars bills.....

JRE was the nail in the coffin for me to start investing too! I'm still a huge newbie but it's exciting to know there's always more to learn!

@quantumanomaly It's easy to feel like we're WAY behind the experts but not really. We are ahead of the game!

Amen to that. It's still a young currency!
