I'm absolutely mesmerized by this community! I will be the first to admit that I'm a 41 year old, out of touch father of four that is trying to keep up with an ever changing world. The Internet of Things, Block Chains, and most every other topic that one comes across when they start learning about Cryptocurrency scared the hell out of me! It all started about 6 months ago when my son Tristan comes home from school and is going on and on about Bit Coin, which (like many mainstream working class people) I thought was a fad or a scam. But this young man is very smart so we started doing some research on it. Well the next thing you know, I'm learning about Bitcoin, then Blockchain, then Etherium, then I start subscribing to newsletters on cryptocurrency and the next thing you know, I found Steemit.
I will be the first to I'm moderately intimidated but very excited to be here.
