Cryptocurrencies (crypto for short) represent a form of money that can be exchanged digitally.
Like other forms of value representations, not all cryptos are the same.
For instance, some fiat currencies like the USD and Pounds Sterling are held in more regard than others.
Same it is with crypto.
What is it about cryptocurrency that has taken the world by storm over the last 4 years?
Crypto helps the internet fulfil its promise of a boundless world where we can exchange our gifts with anyone across the world and get paid for it without having to deal with middlemen like banks and government who take their own share for doing nothing.
So long as people believe in their inalienable right to fulfil their potential by engaging and trading with others globally and so long as they resent mismanagement by middlemen, there will always be a need for cryptocurrency.

All entrepreneurship starts with an idea and a belief that one has a better way of solving a problem.
To get the idea to market, cash needs to be deployed to forge the team, produce the product, find the customers and exchange product for money.
There are a number of ways to fund ideas to market.
In this episode , you will learn the various sources of funding and the need to understand the expectations that arise from taking one type of funding versus others.
At the end of this episode, the most important take away is to note is that money is a commodity and not all funders are the same even if the money they give you is the same. So you must pay attention to raise funding from sources that align with your mission, entrepreneurship style and which give you the most non-monetary support.
