When people start to have the same boring, reliable trust in cryptocurrency that they currently have in a piece of paper, there will be a surge in the adoption of crypto as money!
Yesterday's class with @theCryptoTrybe was more than insightful. I call it a masterclass on money.
GM! ☕️
The CryptoTrybe just kicked off her 2-Week Intensive Web3 Training, perfect for anyone new to crypto or looking for a fresh perspective on all things Web3!
Yesterday was Day 1, and we dove deep into MONEY ! 💰
What stood out for me in the class about money is simply this: Money is trust.
So @saintjamesIX was speaking about the different forms of money we’ve had throughout history, From the Barter system which had to do with exchanging goods directly, then came shells, stamped metals, silver and gold coins, then paper(i.e the bill of exchange he mentioned which would certify how much gold you had so you could travel without carrying all of it across borders and risk getting robbed), then the fiat currency, checks, digital transfers, Card payments, and now crypto.
But every single one of them only worked because people agreed that it worked. Whether backed by a government like Saint James mentioned or a commodity like Gold,
It works because a network of people agrees to treat it as valuable and exchangeable, and that agreement is reinforced by institutions, rules, and practical usefulness.
So yeah, money isn’t necessarily paper or fiat (I mean we were all here in 2023 when Buhari launched the New Naira notes and we were having trouble using the old Naira notes cause The Government said they were discontinuing and moving to RGB notes 🌚)
Money isn’t necessarily gold or even crypto.
Those are just the forms money takes.
So yeah, money is worth exactly as much as the trust people place in it and it’s adoption i.e their willingness to use it.
And if you need proof of how powerful adoption really is, remember the guy who spent 10,000 Bitcoin on two pizzas in 2010. Sixteen years later, those same 10,000 Bitcoin are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The pizzas didn’t change, but the trust in Bitcoin did.
And that is my take, Money is trust !
Again, It was an incredible session we had !
And the best part?

@Dee_believer_ Caught a line of thought yesterday — When people have the same boring, reliable trust in cryptocurrency that they currently have in a piece of paper, there will be a surge in the adoption of crypto as money!
Well done, Dee. Glad to be part of The CryptoTrybe too 😊
Today, @theCryptoTrybe officially begins a partnership with @firescreener
Over the past few years, we have focused on one thing: helping everyday Africans enter Web3 with clarity, confidence, and the right foundation. That work has happened through real conversations, practical education, and community building on the ground.
As our reach continues to expand, the importance of introducing our people to reliable tools becomes even more critical.
That makes this partnership with @firescreener timely.
FireScreener is building infrastructure around token research and analytics in a way that is practical for real users.
Through this partnership, it becomes an important part of how we train our community to research better, understand markets better, and make more informed decisions in Web3.
For us, this is bigger than an announcement.
It is another practical step toward building stronger access, better education, and a healthier entry point into the crypto space for the next wave of users across Africa.
We appreciate the FireScreener team for the alignment and for believing in what we are building.
Onward 🤝
Today was epic! It was the first edition of Crypto and the City and there was a whole lot of excitement especially from people who were hearing about crypto for the first time.
We're driving real adoption. We'll bring Abia Onchain, one campaign at a time 🔥.
#CryptoandtheCity
Doing this in aba today felt so good. 90% of the people we spoke to were hearing about crypto for the first time 😲.
One campaign at a time, we'll bring everyone Onchain 🔥
#CryptoandtheCity#CryptoTrybe
The early pictures of a movement like Crypto and the City always look ordinary. Nothing about the frame tells you something significant is happening, but it is.
Today, CryptoTrybe teams across multiple regions stepped out into our everyday world to meet the people we exist to serve. We introduced ourselves, shared Web3, and invited them in 🚀🚀

Somewhere in a city in Africa right now, someone is working hard with no idea that the digital economy could change everything for them.
We’re going to find that person.
Then the next, Then the next.
City by city, street by street.
Until millions of people know what we know.
This is what Crypto & the City is about.
The movement has begun.

Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day, CryptoTrybe! 🍕
16 years ago today, a developer traded 10,000 BTC for two Papa John’s pizzas. Back then, it was a $41 novelty. Today, that transaction is worth over $773 million.
It’s easy to look back and call it a missed generational fortune. But the truth? Without that crucial first step into real-world commerce, Bitcoin might not be where it is today. He didn't just buy dinner; he proved the utility of decentralized currency.
Here’s to the most expensive meal in history, and the start of a financial revolution. 🥂
