Pourtant la vie est un jeu, tu es forcé de jouer, pas forcement a crypto mais tu joues deja tout le temps! Reticent c'est possible, mais aveugle c'est impossible!

T'inquiète, je ne cesse de jouer… mais je ne m'intéresse guère à l'argent du moment que j'en ai assez pour mes lubies… assez peu dispendieuses d'ailleurs (je parler du jeu business, bien sûr… il ya tellement d'autres jeux plus excitant pour moi… comme ceux de l'art ou de l'exploration du territoire ou des interdépendance créatives de toutes sortes).

tu as bien de la chance! Je pense l'argent est juste un outil, apres tout est comment tu l'utilises!

Chaque fois que j'ai mis de l'argent dans un truc financier, il est parti en fumée avec le truc (si je commence à investir dans les cryptos, je vais provoquer un crash planétaire) :-)

Thank you Loic,

this was very informative and useful for me. Quick question, you first mention Revolut to buy bitcoin but than recommended 2 wallets (ledger and another). Why is that ? I imagine Revolut is only for bitcoin ? Thank you

Your follower since the vlog from the Amazon.

Hi Giancarlo! I actually don’t use Revolut myself I was just trying to provide the easiest way. I recommend a Kraken or Coinbase account for sending your FIAT. Then for wallets I just offer two good options, just pick one. You can also use both or even change later easily.

Pls remind me the difference between revolut, coinbase and a wallet ?

What Loic calls a wallet is a physical hardware device that gives you an extra layer of security by being something that you hold with you rather then just typing a password or pass phrase for an online wallet. The main difference being the increased security for physical wallets like Ledger

Revolut is a bank

Coinbase and Kraken are centralised exchanges

A wallet on DeFi is where you store your coins but matters only for security purposes, you can change wallet easily. What’s important when you create it is to store your phrase safely, or use Zengo that doesn’t use a phrase.

Thank you

I thought you can store your coins on coinbase no?

You can’t store them on Revolut?

I don’t know I don’t use Revolut. Basic coins yes, what I’m doing, no.

Hey Giancarlo, I’m happy to keep answering such basic questions for you but did you think about trying GPT for that?

Seesmic says hi! He’s going on 16 yrs old now and getting close to the end of his life. The love that this German Shepard has giving me is real. I’m 78 now and enjoyed following your creativity and enthusiasm. You’re right that everything is a game except love between my Seesmic and me! Longer lasting than money. Love you!

I would really love to hear, how do you marry this tech, with your time in the jungle? I find it very hard, personally, to reconcile the wealth aspect of it with a starving world

Hey Scott! Money is already married with the jungles, as I wrote, there aren't many indigenous left immune to money. They don't live isolated only from hunting anymore, they have boats that burn gas to go buy stuff in supermarkets :( Now as far as I am concerned, I am making a conscious choice to force myself to get back to what's going on in this world and the gravity of the need of money for all. I chose to study crypto because it's definitely a jungle with many more theaves around!

Thanks for clarifying, I appreciate it. I find it hard to handle two things in tandem that I guess I feel can be in opposition, even though they aren't

I wanted to ground after flying so far... So I chose crypto for now. Let's see if it sticks!

story of my life, I find it hard too but I have always done that. It's indeed extreme in this case, which I like too.

In the internet’s new financial system, yields are set on-chain — not by central banks. And when credit demand rises, the market will bid for the hardest, most trust-minimized asset it can find.

I call it the Collateral Gravity Well and it’s already pulling Bitcoin into the role U.S. Treasuries once played.

This shift is small now, but our models show how a tiny percentage change in Bitcoin’s use as collateral could unleash outsized price repricing.
