This week, author rewards have improved slightly, reaching 9.40 HP. I've been participating less in the thread lately, and the truth is, I find it hard to write on Wednesdays because I'm quite busy with the kids' extracurricular activities. It's not that they do a lot of extracurricular activities; in fact, they only do one, but it's on Wednesdays, and that disrupts my plans. But it's not just the kids who will be happy; there's also a certain level of discomfort.
The cryptocurrency experiments are being very fun and educational for me. I'm used to investing in stocks, bonds, ETFs, or tangible assets, but crypto assets are a different kind of asset. I'm noticing that they're increasingly becoming part of traditional financial products. I think they'll change the financial industry, but on the other hand, I'm afraid that in the process, they'll sell people high-risk products as if they were safe. That's the worst that can happen, and it already happened with subprime mortgages.
