A lot of people are curious about crypto but don't know where actually to start, not because it's complicated, but because no one explains the basics without assuming you already know them.

In this episode of the Foresee Markets Podcast, Alejandro and Serhii walk through everything from scratch, live on screen. What crypto actually is, how to set up a MetaMask wallet, how to fund it using fiat, and how to spend it in a real store using the Coinbase debit card.

Alejandro sets up the full infrastructure during the episode. Serhii provides the systems context — how blockchains, tokens, wallets, and exchanges connect.

The key honest point from the conversation: crypto is not a traditional currency. It doesn't preserve value the way cash does — it moves with the market. Understanding that risk before you enter is what makes the difference.

One reminder worth repeating: your private keys are your responsibility. Never share them. If lost, there is no recovery — unlike a bank account.

A practical, no-hype episode for anyone who's been waiting for a clear starting point.
