I'm launching a crypto newsletter.
Here's why I think creating content in the crypto space is a huge opportunity for young internet builders 🧵

I'd been flirting with this idea for the past ~3 months.
I was so curious about crypto that it was almost painful to resist it.
Then, last month my wife and I went on a 16-hour road trip from Louisiana (where we're based) to Leadville, Colorado.

Then, last month my wife and I went on a 16-hour road trip from Louisiana (where we're based) to Leadville, Colorado.
It was during this trip that I finally gave myself permission to follow my curiosity and went down the crypto rabbit hole.
On our way to Leadville, I spent most of my waking hours reading anything I could get my hands on—articles, newsletters, Twitter threads.

By the time we arrived at Leadville, I'd already been crypto-pilled.
What's interesting is that there were A LOT of things I couldn't (and still don't) understand.
But the main, high-level takeaway was crystal clear:

Crypto is transforming the world at a fundamental level.
In the same way personal computers, the internet and smartphones did.

My 2nd takeaway was that the crypto media landscape has a big problem.
98% of the crypto content out there is either too noisy or too complicated.
This results in a lot of hypey and clickbaity news, on one hand.
And a ton of long, boring articles, on the other.

But this problem is also the opportunity of a life-time.
By trying to solve it, you can build a monumental audience. Heck, you can even build a media empire.
(Of course, that's the most bullish and optimistic scenario.)

But the worst case scenario is great, too!
Even if you don't build the next Morning Brew or become the next Pomp, you will:
• Learn new skills
• Build a network of talented friends
• Better understand the whole space

This would give you an unfair advantage to recognize other new opportunities anyway.
