Heroes arise during times of great uncertainty, despair, and unforeseen disaster. Heroes can be found in purposeful commitment, dedication, and conviction. They are people who take many shapes, sizes, and forms and can be from anywhere in the world. This book explores heroes from war-torn countries, and countries with inflation.

This seventeenth book in the Crypto Hipster series, entitled Fierce… Courageous… Heroes, draws upon four ...

Crypto Hipster's Mysticals compilations that cover Season 4 and Season 5 are far more than just a catchy-named compilation. While there is a deep focus on technology, they also include common themes faced by entrepreneurs and founders across all industry spectra. This theme is based on "human" issues, which include societal, mindset, social opportunities, and personal growth and development. Of course, they also focus on solving industry and technological problems that we all face in our everyday lives or will face soon. Most of the Crypto Hipster Podcasts are focused on thought leadership ...

The hype and craze of the NFT Revolution that swept across the world of crypto and blockchain globally during 2021 and 2022 has subsided during the crypto downturn of 2023. Great debate now occurs about the future and direction of NFTs, with many believing the future is outside of the art movement. Whether that is metaverse finance, decentralized financial ticketing, institutional control, or some sort of hybrid mishmash that comes out of the Securities and Exchange Commission's lawsuits and authoritative overstepping to achieve regulatory capture, the benefits of NFTs will long outlast the...

With the untimely collapse of FTX and other centralized crypto exchanges in 2022, some American politicians have taken it upon themselves to use the excuse of fraud and other unfortunate acts by a few terrible actors to hurt the industry even further and to gain political clout with their constituents. Some of these politicians' constituents are Wall Street incumbents who have been running scared of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies for years. Evidence of their fear can be discovered through public comments. In fact, Bitcoin has been pronounced dead in the media over four hundred fifty times. ...

Contrary to the wishes of existing Big Tech incumbents, the future of NFTs and the metaverse are based on decentralization and on correcting the global mistakes we made during the evolution of the Web 2.0 internet.

In the preamble to my 2020 book Re-Generation X, I write the following about Brutality: In its most malevolent form, brutality involves the blatant disregard, neglect, and disrespect of others around us. In action, it is torture for the unappreciated, ridicule for the uninformed, poverty for the uneducated, and suffering for the misguided. Such malevolent brutality could occur anywhere, including but not limited to politics, government, and corporate unemployment. From my experience, it surely occurs on both Wall Street and Silicon Valley, especially with corporate bailouts and the ...

I have titled the nineteenth compilation for Crypto Hipster's Chronicles, Episode 19, "Early Crypto Trends and Predictions for 2022", and that episode I have now converted into this book. Most crypto “experts” and “pundits” talk about the price possibilities of various cryptocurrencies. Price is the easiest denominator to discuss, especially for non-techies. And everyone likes to predict what prices could be. At the beginning of 2022, all of those predictions would turn out to be wrong. This was for a variety of factors including centralized finance implosions caused by Celsius, FTX...

DAOs, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations, offer quite a unique structure than traditional corporations. The organization, built on code, and governed by code, enables a democratic approach to governance, that differs from the Corporate Board and C-suite model prevalent across the Fortune stock companies you find on the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, and just about any other global listing platform. DAOs' major tenants include decentralization, truth, trust, and justice. This is in stark contrast to the corporate board of directors' proxy voting process. While the world suffered from ...

I have titled the thirteenth compilation for Crypto Hipster's Chronicles, Episode 13, "Traveling Through Space and Time", and that episode I have now converted into this book. Traveling into space is not a new desire or dream. It has existed ever since man first crushed grapes.

So is the use of electric vehicles to help improve humanity's carbon footprint. The four interviews in this book explore what is possible with solving Earth's issues by solving ...

Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) have not only been an area of tremendous growth over the last couple years but also have helped empower an amazing Renaissance for content creators. Now, instead of being at the mercy of agents, auction houses, or the choice tastes of middlemen, artists can directly reach their audiences through digital creations. NFTs, which is effectively a digital receipt that you bought and own something, or many things, on the blockchain, manifest in many different forms. An NFT can be digital artwork, or a ticket, or music, a collectible, photograph, book, or any other ...
