We all want to believe that through some component we can buy into a lottery and change our lives as the entire pitch behind the lottery.

My concerns around crypto are Bitcoin as it's being presented today.

So the emphasis is on that, on the idea of wealth creation as compared to utility.

But what I'm not excited about is the rank speculation and you know what I would argue is fraudulent selling to retail of

here's the keys to how you get rich simply by buying something.

And I got to tell you, very few tiers are being shed right now for my lack of participation in the Bitcoin network or the Ethereum network.

We're social creatures. When you think about the behavior in the Bitcoin marketing story, it was all designed to appeal to the fear that we have of being left behind.

And you hear somebody say, have fun staying poor, right? That's not the future of finance.

That's somebody trying to trigger your fear of being left behind.

This is the future of finance. Well, how much is the future of finance work? That seems like why? I'm going to go with that's a big number, right?

Because Bitcoin is programmatically limited in terms of the number of Bitcoins that will ever be produced, that means at some point in the future the system has to collapse.

Hey Francis, do you like locals?

I live in London, mate. So obviously not. The only pleasure I get from the locals is when we share an intimate moment as we watch a Japanese tourist get trapped in a tube door.

That is good.

But I wasn't talking about their locals. I was talking about our community on locals.

You mean the one where you get phenomenal behind the scenes content when you nagged your face, face, face, face, face?

When you get to ask incredible guests like Jordan Peterson, Brett Weinstein, Bill Burr, Sam Harris, Adam Corolla, Heather Hying and others your questions?

Not just that, you can get supporter-only benefits like trigonometry mugs, monthly calls with other top supporters and even a regular meal with me in Francis.

You also get phenomenal behind the scenes footage of our trip to America where we met a whole host of incredible guests and gave ourselves terminal indigestion.

We're also starting to do monthly giveaways for locals only. The first one will be signed copies of Andrew Dole's new book.

Plus, you get access to an incredible community of like-minded people who share memes, have fun conversations and most importantly, you get to make new friends.

You can support us with as little as $7 or about £5 a month or give us more for the higher tier benefits. Go to trigonometry.locals.com.
