Early adopters

Facebook, Snapchat, Netflix. Which age bracket were the main drivers of these new things when they were new? Teenagers and young adults right? The first into the latest trends is nearly always the young people. It won't be any different with crypto. They are already here. Just look at crypto YouTube or Reddit comments. These ill-informed comments are not stupid people, they are just teenagers. People who may not know everything about crypto yet, but way ahead of your average Joe on the street. They will be in a far better position as we enter the new paradigm.

The young are not very visible in this tech trend yet. Their pocket money doesn't make much impact on the market valuations. There is still a very small number of uses for crypto out in the wild to make anyone notice. I think the first breakout Dapp will be in gaming. Earning tokens to play and having real ownership of in-game assets. Many young gamers are already GPU mining. A few stories in the media about 12-year-olds becoming millionaires in the next bull run should make the public wake up and take notice.
