“You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life — that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad…”

Morpheus, The Matrix, 1999

Cryptocurrency is a marker of the future mindset 

What distinguishes a young person from an older one? It all comes down to the balance between internal biases and openness to new things. Sooner or later, experience solidifies into habits, into a set of internal rules (biases), axioms, and even dogmas, leaving less and less room for a fresh perspective on new information.

Actually, age has nothing to do with it. When your internal rules do not limit your ability to perceive completely new concepts, you remain young for as long as you want.

According to Gemini Research’2024

Cryptocurrency, blockchain, DeFi are all markers of youth: if you're interested in them, it means you're young. Conceptually, blockchain is as innovative as the Internet seemed incomprehensible in its time! It is something that changes the lives of generations beyond recognition; it's an evolutionary leap – a life in which today’s youth will form new internal rules, only to someday encounter even more incredible concepts and perhaps be ready to accept them at an older age.

Cryptocurrency as a Symbol of the Digital Era

The traditional financial system was formed over 80 years ago and continues to rule the world to this day.

The Bretton Woods system (1944-1971) was based on fixed exchange rates and the peg of the dollar to gold. After the gold standard was abandoned (Nixon, 1971), the Jamaican system declared floating exchange rates and strengthened the dominance of the US dollar in the world. The modern financial world is a fairly stable structure where equilibrium is a variable, and if it is disrupted, an avalanche buries everyone (crises of 2008 and 2020).

The emergence of cryptocurrencies is a challenge to the traditional financial world, which is ruled by regulators and banks. Decentralization is a provocatively dangerous concept for them because it is precisely centralized power over the world that allows them to make money from money, ad infinitum.

In the world of decentralized digital assets (cryptocurrencies and tokens), there is no central authority enriching itself at the expense of other participants - and we have always felt that there is  "something wrong" with this system.

For the youth, cryptocurrency is not just convenient money; it is a part of a digital financial culture, a symbol of freedom from traditional finance, and a new way of doing business. And blockchain is a new technology of trust, used to build the financial system of the future, and the youth has an intuitive sense of this!

Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain - A New Institution of Trust

The early Internet was a toy for the initiated, then it turned into a global phenomenon. Early blockchain and blockchain-based digital assets have followed the same path.

The value of any asset or technology is determined by user trust. Today, blockchain is triumphantly marching across the planet, and Generation Z and millennials, who grew up during a crisis of trust in banks and governments, tend to trust software code much more than centralized financial institutions and their mantras about financial success.

Blockchain is a "mathematical truth" that cannot be hacked or forged. However, losing a private key in this new world means losing funds, with no one to help recover them. This is a proportionate price for decentralization, thanks to which each user is the sole master of their assets with full responsibility for their actions.

A clear sense of personal responsibility for their future is typical for modern youth. This is why crypto fits so organically with the values of Generation Z: autonomy, responsibility, efficiency.

So, blockchain is not just a technology; it's a new philosophy:

  • You are in control of your assets 
  • You bear full responsibility
  • You are part of a global digital world

Cryptocurrencies: Investment or Ideology?

Today, the crypto world offers a vast number of opportunities. For some, it is a speculative asset; for others, it's a fight against the system; for others, it's a means of saving, self-identification, belonging to a certain culture, etc.

For example, some invest in Pepe, Shiba Inu, or Dogecoin because it's trendy, while others buy and sell NFTs because it's important for them to own something virtual and feel part of the crypto community. For others, it's vital to multiply capital by trading on cryptocurrency exchanges and to oppose trends, traditional communities, and the outdated system.

In the crypto world, investment opportunities collide with the ideology of freedom, which the youth hold so dear. It’s a junction of advantages that allow young people to earn while remaining maximally independent from the system.

The ideology of crypto is what banks and regulators fear so much – it's the breath of freedom that undermines their position precisely among the youth. And investing in crypto is a global trend supported by big business. Banks can no longer resist crypto; they can only adopt new concepts and fight for the attention of young people.

The Future of Cryptocurrencies: Not an Experiment, But a New Norm!

Is cryptocurrency an experiment that could change the world or will it remain a niche hobby? That was a valid question five years ago. However, today it is already clear that the experiment has succeeded, and the world has already changed.

In crypto, the young generation timely recognized a new opportunity to remain independent in an area where freedom was never to be found.

At the same time, local battles between the "old" and the "new" will only intensify. Who will win? Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) or Bitcoin? Or will they exist in parallel? Will metaverses become popular? Will the crypto world turn into a global virtual casino?

The young generation will answer these questions. For the older generation, money has always been about faith – for the most part, they choose the blue pill of everyday life. For the young, money has turned into a mathematical algorithm. Transaction simplicity, personal responsibility, the absence of a third party – this is the success algorithm for the youth, who associate their future with new technologies and financial freedom.

Let's admit it to ourselves – we have always felt that "there was something wrong with this world." Crypto is the red pill that opened our eyes to a new reality where blockchain is an alternative to banks, fiat is an anachronism, and taking calculated risks for the sake of the unknown is the norm.

The youth choose the red pill and blockchain. The blue one is still there for those accustomed to living in the illusion of complete security, unaware of their vulnerability to those who control the old financial system.
