I kept putting it off, but I was listening to Rogue money (they're on Steem now too) they were talking about etherium at 30 bucks and two weeks late it was at 80 bucks, I finely said what a minute, I'm sitting on stocks doing nothing, so set about learning crypto's, and it took a while to get set up in exchanges-, now I'm a believer. The people I hear that think it's "big brother" the government etc...they usually hold metals too and think bitcoin is the only cypto out there. May be hard to find Non-cyrpto people around Steem!!
