Tales From the Crypto: Beginners Guide to Cryptocurrency

 Description  Cryptocurrency. Blockchain Technology. NFTs…. Huh?!?! To the average person, these words may as well be babble from a baby or the ramblings of a madman. But to investors who believe in these opportunities, they are everyday lingo. Welcome to the 21st century, where traditional ideas about money, valuables, and wealth have changed…. but yet still remain very much the same. In this class, we will explain to complete novices what exactly cryptocurrency is, how it is used, why people invest in it, and how to do so yourself. We will also explore the dueling perspectives on whether or not cryptocurrency is a viable investment option or a temporary scam waiting to implode. As a bonus, we will also explore NFTs as an investment vehicle. We will address what they are, how to buy them, and look at how they walk the border between art and absurdity, as they too fall into the realm of novel modern investment options that have proponents and detractors with rivaling beliefs. Join us as we delve into the era of invisible money, virtual property, and a fork in the road of society so that you better understand these fascinating currencies. Will they become priceless or worthless? You decide.
