'Exploring Crypto Fundamentals with Josh Swigart on The HackerNoon Podcast' by hackernoon hackernoonpodcast crypto
Ahhh - I don't know about you, but I personally love it when Utsav takes over the podcast. 😂 Not only didkick back and relax this week, but of course, I learned a lot about crypto from the HackerNoon crypto guru himself - Utsav Jaiswal.
[00:00:00] Utsav: Well, hello and welcome to the hacker noon podcast. This is your host. And today on the crypto episodes, we have somebody from Brita is known mostly as crypto fundamentals, but friends know him as Josh Swigart. The people who have blasted have this story, you have to have it, you get destroyed, you get, you know, multiple times. Um, and I listened to the wrong people. When I first came on the scene in 20 17, 20 18. I wasn't even on CT. I didn't know what the hell CT was. So about a year and a half ago. Um, yeah, I was listening to YouTube and I don't want to name any names.
So it is there, there is some selfishness and that's the same with everybody. I think, I think we do things for selfish reasons. We can do the psychology of that. We don't have to, but that's why I do it. And, you know, and they think that, you know, it's a bad project, but in reality, they don't even know what VCs are, you know, there's token unlocks and things like that. So what drives me is just, I really have a good time. I enjoy putting together information and making it look and sound a certain way and a way people understand when I'm breaking something down.
Um, and this and that drives me too, because I see, like, I know of something, people shouldn't buy something just based on who else is promoting it because. Oh shit. Right. But things like that. Uh, and this probably, no one's going to be a problem after this video comes out, guarantee you that[00:05:02] Josh: I tried to do one, one. Um, I really did, but what I found was just like, I'd never been able to fake anything in real life.
I, uh, I don't obviously now, but at the time, You know, it was very stressful. And even in college, eating ramen, you know, in dorm rooms and as a medical aid, I made $12 an hour and I didn't ever, you know, on my fridge was had two things in it. So money is a driver, of course. And it always will be, but if I can help people benefit along the way, it certainly actually is one of those things where I kind of enjoy it.
Uh, what else drives me the detail. I like that. Um, yeah, I don't know what else. Really say, I'm sure there's more, I'm just missing stuff. ICause like there would be a lot of, let's say economists or finance people who could always, like, let's say explain liquidity better using all of their deltas and that alpha is, and they'll beat us.
So the, the Ana thing, I like it, I think privacy is important. It's a real, it's a real big thing. But when we're talking strictly financial, no politics involved, right. Where our money is going, how to make money, how to multiply that money, how to compound that money. You know, it's a question we really need to start asking, do we want to participate?[00:09:29] Josh: Excluded. But if you were talking about stairs, probably X we're attempting to be serious.
You just need to understand basics well, and you will do well, but even that's it, it's very simple. Keep it simple. Keep it. You know, keep moving, keep pivoting with the, with the changes in a trends, but you don't have to know every single thing in the world.
So the best doesn't always matter. Same as some privacy points are really like, and I hope they make it. I'm not sure how they're going to get around things. And obviously their privacy. I don't have to go anywhere, but you know what I mean? Like there's still. That will need to be solved. Um, the best thing doesn't matter, the best tech doesn't matter, what's selected matters.
comes into it for us, but I don't want to get like too detailed, which is. No the over generalized statement. Um, but, um, I'm sorry, like go find it. I know. I want you to talk to them too. Sorry, go ahead. Uh, usually [00:16:01] Utsav: fix it? Like how do you call yourself? De-centralized the next day I was talking about this exchange called bye-bye.
And I don't like the gas prices either, but it isn't, everything's built on it. No one wants to break. I mean, I can't even get people to bridge to other chains for a 10 X. You think that they think something else is going to take over. So, but, uh, other red flags for teams. You know, there isn't community building.
He said it well, I'm sorry. I'm not saying it well anyways. Um, that's all I can think of right now with teams, not doing things. Okay. Here's another thing. Devs make bad CEOs really bad CEO. If they don't, they think they can code. They, they, and then do HR and, you know, uh, you know, everything at the same time.
I think it comes from being, you know, just getting a feeling for all the projects.
The journalism is that the investigative journalism and the evidence they've collected as. It's a very, very, very, very poor, especially when they're posting things and they don't link up a chain of events, they don't link up a timeline. They don't describe how the wallet transfers worked and where it went and how it got there.
And I just get it's a little bit tiresome because people on crypto, they wonder why they're not taking seriously a little bit. Right? Well, we'd asked better questions. So you're promoting somebody to have a hundred thousand followers. Right. And you're listening to every word they say, but then again, you're not asking them to do better.
Somebody dumped on you and you're not getting your money back. When you could have been researching something to put your energy somewhere where it's going to benefit you. And I've never done that. I'd never went on my way to look at wallets like that, even though it can be beneficial in other ways, Just taking time away from me making money basically.[00:24:20] Utsav: sorry.
Right. I didn't get it. You have to really do your research and it too, because they're going to be in a metaverse and they're going to go to 3d and they're going to come with land and all those, you know, not just those ones, but tons of them. And so I think there's a place for them. I think they assimilate ratio up with crypto.
[00:26:59] Utsav: you don't, I don't get NFTs at all. Like how would you explain why you do me? I call it like layer two long.Right? I don't understand it fully at either. I just feel like, you know, I saw a few cool things in the markets that go nowhere. So I'll look into it.
[00:28:42] Josh: what's X. What do you mean by like the next. Yeah, I honestly think, um, they're going to have to bridge, uh, the financial system with blockchain, eventually traditional kinds of systems and the blockchain eventually. Why would they close things down right away when they can let, like all these brilliant people innovate for years on end, and then there's cherry pick out what they want in the end, cost them nothing. Right? So it's still, the innovation factor is always going to be there because one person wants to one up the other and code gets spliced and code gets altered.
[00:33:17] Josh: it happened. Yeah. You get to that. You get to those points quicker. Like the death, uh, five stages of death and the grief, and then the acceptance, it's kind of the same thing. When you use them for awhile. So I worry about that a little bit, but as far as people, as far as the people with their, the dopamine and a bull market, you know, they just, you get addicted to it. It's like this constant thing, but you run out eventually your body gets fatigued. You can't produce, it's like a kinda like being an addict.
Oh yeah. Sure. So tell us some of the tools that you, that you like using the space. There are so many, I just found out about Zipify started using it, but what are the ones that you like, what are the ones that you want people to be. To be more aware and informed and so on and so forth.Um, no quant. Craig's got ya, but meshes is a good one.
But for price check, I mean, I've had this conversation with movers last week where they were just using Coinbase. They didn't know that I do what I do, but all they were doing to invest was Coinbase. I was like, Hey, these people have these hopes and dreams. See, you feel bad. You're like, no, one's told you about a Dex.
That's all there is to it. And I heard this from an influencer who was really large when I was really small and I was getting dumped on all the time and I was like, oh, what's going on? Can we push a project this way? We do it that way. He's like, you know, the bottom line. And I'm not saying we had to do this, but if something's going wrong with a project, if you don't sell someone else is going to that's the bottom line.
This is great. This is wonderful. It's exciting. Is there a need, will there be adoption people never ask that question. They don't care. They want to make money right away. That's great. But then at least give yourself some limitations and say, I'm not going to research that aspect of this, but I know it's going to make me money right now.
[00:42:16] Josh: Maybe that's it. Maybe that's it. Yeah, that's a good one. But like, I hate to disappoint people, but I don't use indicators that much. I really just dig through like, and even on. Like, if you want data to go to CT, like what a mistake I realized I was making early on was I would go through just scroll through random stuff.
I just kind of use my stuff. I really dig into a project that tie pieces together. But for TA wise, I'm always watching that to like support and resistance and straight out those levels. If I'm just trading there, swing trading, large caps are so. Well, I'm not traded right now. Cause it's just no good.
