Getting to 500 people shouldn’t be hard. To put it in perspective with 253 of you, we just need to reproduce 0.9763 to get to 500.
My mission remains to: share ideas with people who share the same curiosity as me. Yet, the opportunity has grown much more than that, and I appreciate your support on this wild ride. Thanks pal.
As for your 5 In's (gonna be short and sweet):
Insights - Owning Equity Gets You Leverage
Jay-Z is a top-tier Venture Capitalist.
Here's why:
Spotify didn't want to fork the $1 billion to stream Jay-Z's music. So he simply became the owner of Tidal to leverage the streaming industry.

Speaking of Hip-Hop legends, RIP DMX.

Innovation - What You Need To Know To Understand Blockchain
I'm taking a cryptographic securities course this semester. It's made it easier to understand how Bitcoin works (thankfully).

- Blockchain timestamps
- Nakamoto consensus
- Merkle trees
- Crypto oracles
I'll be breaking these all down in a future post (It's an excuse for me to study for my exams)
Internet - Spiderman Comics
A behind-the-scenes on how Spiderman comic covers are created:
THE MOST VALUABLE INSIGHT I WILL EVER SHARE WITH YOU:
Let me know it works (I still need to try it out):
