1/ Welcome to Ethereum - check your fiat at the door and grab some ether from @coinbase - you’re about to enter the world of open finance #DeFi 🦄

(thread)
2/ With your freshly purchased ether, you can now interact with the Ethereum economy & Web3 while securely storing your assets using the @CoinbaseWallet (or @ethstatus, @TrustWalletApp etc).
3/ What is Web3 you ask? The web, as it exists today, is controlled by giant companies like Google, Facebook and Amazon. Web3 aims to transform the web into an open, decentralized system using distributed ledger technology.
4/ Now that you understand the basics, you're ready to jump into the Ethereum economy! How about protecting yourself against ETHs price volatility? Simply lock some ETH in a collateralized debt position (CDP) on @MakerDAO to mint Dai - the Ethereum-native decentralized stablecoin
5/ Interested in trustlessly trading your ether (or Dai!) for tokens or tokenized assets? Simply use a @0xProject relay such as @ParadexIO or @RadarRelay and seamlessly swap your ether/dai for the token of your choice.
6/ Don’t want to deal with the hassle of an order book? Use @airswap or @KyberNetwork for seamless peer-to-peer trading.
7/ Feeling bearish on crypto? Head to @dydxprotocol's Expo (expotrading.com) to buy sETH - a tokenized representation of a short position for ETH.
8/ Feel like earning some interest instead of simply hodling your crypto? Head over to @DharmaProtocol or @compoundfinance to lend it out.
9/ Feeling lucky? Place a bet on the prediction market protocol @AugurProject or play in @FunFairTech's decentralized casino.
10/ Want to play a game? Explore how owning your in-game assets changes the dynamics of gaming with @ZBCardGame or @GodsUnchained.
11/ Want to trade your new in-game assets? Head over to @projectopensea or @rarebits_io to find potential buyers.
12/ Interested in helping secure Ethereum? Soon, you’ll be able to become a validator/staker under ‘Shasper’ and earn ether for staking your capital and contributing computational resources to the Ethereum network.
13/ Want to learn more? Head to EthHub (github.com/econoar/ethhub) to get an early look at a new open-source education hub being developed specifically to educate people about Ethereum! Contributions welcome 🍩
14/ Need a list of resources to get started? Head over to blockbyblock.io/resources
