What

A collection of overviews of various crypto projects in an effort to better understand them using the Feynman Technique.

Why

Crypto has become hugely popular but mostly for speculative and financial reasons. I’ve been fascinated by the technological aspects of it and what it can allows us to do but also have found it hard to understand even being a technical person. I love the Feynman Technique as a way of learning so I wanted to combine the two.

Learnings

• Truly sticking to the Feynman Technique is quite challenging. Especially on technical subjects but it is also very helpful.
• There are so many interesting projects people are working on in this space, and most of the most interesting no one’s heard of because they aren’t necessarily money making endeavors.
• There are so many interesting things still to be explored in this area.
