Excellent write-up!
I see a lot of young people (particularly guys, for some reason) get into the "crypto game" for what I think are the wrong reasons. This notion that crypto is a get-rich-quick scheme has permeated a lot of their Internet culture. You get all sorts of gurus who'll now tell you everything you need to know, and boom, in a couple of years, you'll already be bored with your Maserati collection. And I think therein lies the difference between a learning mind and one that's blocked. The one that's blocked keeps waiting for the information to trickle down, for the solution to be served to them on a silver platter.
Still, hopefully some will learn (since necessity is always the best teacher).
