Today was the Christmas dinner for the family.
My dad was invited too. (like last year).
I'm happy my dad and my mom's new husband get along fine after my dad managed to avoid meeting him for about 5 years.
It makes the life for the children about 10 times easier. I can tell you that.
No more constant questions of who am I going to invite to what party? and all that.
The food was perfect and eventually, the subject of crypto was touched.
My niece Fee and me
My Dad and Brother are both finance guys.
They are the go-to people for investment advice.
And they are good at it in their own (dinosaur) way.
My dad, for instance, sold all his stock (against the bank advice ) before the crash of 2008. It's one of his favorites stories.
They are convinced crypto is a bubble and that it will pop.
They read this every day in the Dutch Financial Times.
I'm the opposite as you probably know. Although I do agree there are projects out there that are completely without merit and are still being bought.
But more and more often I no longer feel the need to convince others about the space.
(Not to be confused with teaching about the space.)
It just makes me tired.
Therefore I'm so happy that my own mom (
When everyone left she asked me to help her with something on Steemit.
I did.
She also showed me all the people she's following and the connections she made on the platform.
Later when I talked to her husband he told me that she often sits behind the computer late at night leaving comments to other people.
She truly enjoys it.
This is just a huge plus for the Steem blockchain because I don't know anyone that send any crypto from A to B (like a lot of other projects) just because they enjoy it late at night.
I also saw she collected some SBD's in her wallet from her blogging efforts.
I asked her what she wanted to do with it.
"What do you recommend?"
She has invested thousands into Steem so I suggested she sent them to me so I could convert them to Euro for her.
Take some profit. Always.
She agreed.
That's what I did when I got home tonight. The money is still in transit but I already booked it to her account.
Talking about crypto becoming real :)
Bubble or not.
While the dinosaurs are standing at the Station we are at least on board the Steem Train and having fun too!
Merry Christmas!
