The "image" of this thing called work seems to have changed a lot over the years, or so it seems.
These days, people almost worker harder at avoiding work than they work at actual work... and I can't help but wonder whether it's the result of so many haveing been sold the proverbial "bag of goods" concerning this idea that work is supposed to be so fulfilling and make us happy. Gone are the days when you just went to work, collected a paycheck, and that was that.
The cryptosphere is a strange microcosm in the sense that the self-image it has built for itself revolves so substantially around the idea of "easy money" and "money for nothing."
A game in which there are typically far more losers than winners.
Far, far more ... Back to the human condition, just like if you walk into a casino, lots of noise when someone has won something. Crickets when the far more common losses occur. All those shiny objects and flashing lights cost money.
Which has to come from somewhere!?
What is sad to me is the delusion that somehow crypto provides people some sort of escape from reality. That there really is a magic money tree! And they will somehow be exempt from the human condition, wandering around in these make believe virtual utopian worlds, in search of it.
Nope ...
