In today's episode we cover the "blockchain trilemma" - Vitalik Buterin's concept of three primary attributes of a blockchain:

• decentralized
• security
• scalability

Any blockchain in development has to make compromises between these three aspects. They simply can't have the best aspects of all three attributes. We discuss each of these and how they relate to some of the most popular blockchains with an eye towards enabling you to evaluate any blockchain's chances of long-term success.

One of the most common complaints I hear about investing in crypto is that it's too late. It's simply not! And in this episode I break down the statistics and numbers behind the Crypto Twitter meme "Bitcoin is in the same market size as the Internet in 1997." It turns out that it's true! I"ll cover the implications of that and where Crypto usage will go from here.

This week we are going to slow down a little. No technical talk! Instead I'm going to describe the biggest mistake I have made in cryptocurrency since 2014. It's easy to get swept up in a bull market but it's a good time right now to plan what you are going to do during a downturn.

This week we get a little technical and dig into the primary layer two challengers being built and deployed on the Ethereum main net. These protocols have several advantages over the Ethereum main net including increased transaction speed and lower transaction fees. Of course, they do have disadvantages as well.

Learn about what will help the Ethereum network continue to grow. And how you can buy your NFT on Opensea with NO transaction fees!!!

The end is not here (yet)!!! At least I don't think it is...we are even near an ATH (all time high) for bitcoin. But now - before the bull market ends - is the time to determine your exit strategy - or even if you should exit.

Listen is as I talk about how I messed up the 2017/2018 bear market and what you can do to maximize your gains during tough times.
