Howdy! Too Busy For Crypto is a podcast for those that know or suspect that there is a fundamental flaw in our economic system. The flaw is monetary inflation of fiat currency that is under centralized control. Every year you see your food, fuel, and healthcare prices get worse. At the same time, you see GDP and the Stock Market always going up, whether or not it makes sense. When banks create money, they are stealing value from your money to give value to their new money, and all of it becomes worth less. Governments spend triple their tax revenues. Guess where that money comes from. Cryptocurrency allows us to compare good money versus bad money. Cryptocurrency is software that allows for peer-to-peer transactions without a middleman. REAL crypto is immutable, decentralized, has no middleman, and no admin keys. FAKE crypto is mutable, centralized, has middlemen, has admin keys, and is easy to spot because it often takes the form of a company. Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency. It allows for send and receive. Ethereum introduced programmable money in the form of smart contracts. HEX is an Ethereum smart contract that behaves like Bitcoin and it allows for yield generation of more HEX with no counterparty risk. You set the yield parameters, and you mint your own rewards at the end. Everything has tradeoffs, crypto is the best performing asset class in history, and it is also extremely volatile, and we expect drops as much as 95% every so often. I do not provide financial advice or tax advice or legal advice. Assess your situation and the risks to yourself. You determine your own level of involvement. I do not and I will not promote financial things based on compensation. HEX is not a company. The founder made the website HEX.COM. I like crypto, and maybe you will too. Thank you for listening!

In previous episodes, I have discussed generalities about crypto, such as risks, terminology, and perspective. This episode I will offer narrative story about how Bubba Uses DeFi. In this story, Bubba will start with dollars, then take a journey from fake crypto to real crypto on the Ethereum Network where Bubba acquires HEX and stakes it.
Part 1 covers the "on-ramping" process of going from Dollars at a bank, to buying stablecoins on a centralized exchange, to moving those stablecoins from the exchange to a personal wallet. Part 2 covers using a decentralized exchange to trade stablecoins for HEX, then staking the HEX.
My intent is to offer tangible details that allow any person to better understand and articulate one avenue to turn Dollars into Crypto with minimized reliance on centralized middlemen. This story is not a comprehensive description, and may include errors or inconsistencies. This story is not to encourage you to participate. If you are a no-coiner who has never participated in crypto, you will become aware of costs and technical nuances that no-coiners don’t know to research ahead of time. Historically, most people in crypto have learned by experience and lost money as part of the learning process.
Please listen to my first four episodes on risk, downsides, and disclaimers, if you have not already. Those first episodes on Crypto-Negatives are meant to anchor my more Crypto-Positive content. I consider this episode Crypto-Postive.
This podcast IS for fans of cryptocurrency who want to learn more or better articulate what they know. This podcast IS NOT financial advice or trading advice!
