Haha, brothers and sisters, gather round! Today we’re not talking about anything fancy, just this magical thing that can make you filthy rich overnight or send you straight back to the stone age: CRYPTOCURRENCY!First, quick question: when you were a kid, did you ever blow your allowance on Pokémon cards and brag to your buddies, “This one’s gonna buy me a Ferrari someday”? Crypto is the adult version of Pokémon cards, except the chance of actually getting that Ferrari… is roughly the same as winning the lottery while getting struck by lightning.So what the hell is cryptocurrency? In plain English: digital fairy dust money.
It doesn’t exist in real life. You can’t fold it into a paper plane like cash, can’t use it to buy fried chicken like dollars. It just lives on the internet, locked up tighter than Fort Knox with a bunch of math wizardry. The most famous one is Bitcoin, created in 2009 by some mysterious dude (or alien) called Satoshi Nakamoto. Nobody knows if he’s a guy, a girl, a committee, or Elon Musk’s pet hamster. One day he just yeeted Bitcoin into existence and boom—new species discovered: crypto degens.The funniest part about crypto? Everyone’s screaming “GET IN THE CAR! GET IN!” Then the doors lock, the driver vanishes, the car explodes off a cliff, and the passengers are left doing the square dance on the edge. I’ve seen some legendary moves:
“This is institutional money!”
“This is the halving pump!”
“This is Trump building a national Bitcoin reserve!”
Don’t understand? Doesn’t matter. Their last sentence is always: “BUY NOW OR STAY POOR!”My advice for normal humans: treat crypto like Russian roulette with extra steps—fun when it works, fatal when it doesn’t. If you really wanna play, follow the three golden rules:

- Dude sold his house to go all-in on some random shitcoin → coin went to absolute zero → house now belongs to the bank.
- 2021 bull market dad treated Bitcoin like family heirloom for his son → 2022 bear market son sold it for baby formula.
- Guy stared at candlestick charts so hard he got glaucoma. Doctor said, “Bro, you don’t need a trading coach, you need an eye doctor.”

- Only use money you can afford to light on fire. Use grocery money and you’ll be eating dirt next month.
- Never trust anyone promising “guaranteed gains” or “run don’t walk.” The only people guaranteed to make money are the ones holding the sickle.
- Turn off the trading app before bed, or you’ll dream your coins hit a million, wake up, and discover they hit absolute zero.
