Bitboy to the Rescue!

This is a must read for anyone who is thinking about entering the crypto market. I wish this book was available to me when I entered the crypto market at the end of 2017, it could’ve saved me a ton of heartache and and money. I appreciate all the research that went into writing this book. Ben is a hero to the questioning masses who believe there must be a better way than the traditional financial systems in place.

Haters hate

Ben gets a bad look from most people in the space - because he’s just as informed as they are but he don’t do the 🤐 thing most other influencers do. Meaning he don’t try and gate keep out of fear that people he brings into this space will actually gain some of the wealth available in the crypto world.

He be on one sometimes ngl 😂 but there aren’t many influencers who put it out there good bad or indifferent , rather than acting like they’re from some exclusive club or sumn.

Probably him , altcoin daily , George are good examples of some folks who commonly disagree but are similar in that they want their people to win.

Catching up to crypto, it's all in the name.

This book makes it easy to understand the basics of crypto and what is going on in the crypto sector. I've been in crypto since late 2019 and like most I didn't take profits and watched all my gains go down the drain last bull run. This books help me understand and help connect the dots to what I wasn't really understanding.
