Today, I helped my nephew setup a wallet on Yoroi for iOS and I sent him a few 
to better understand a blockchain transaction. I felt like I was preparing him for the future and that felt really good.

Great to teach kids about money while theyâre still young such as eating a percent of the ice cream you buy them as tax. What is his understanding of cryptocurrencies and blockchain? My friendâs kids thinks of it as un-copy-paste-able future v-bucks not limited on a single program. Next thing you know theyâll be watching charts and making triangles.
That actually is very cool

Problem is that, for now it is just number in some mobile app, if you gave them $13 they would be able to do something with it.
i donât see a problem teaching a child something other than instant gratification. itâs not about what they can get âright nowâ, itâs about putting away something earned today for some time in the future.
the idea isnât to do something with that $13 (arenât those âjust numbersâ too?) ⌠itâs letting those âjust numbersâ be.

It was a great teaching moment. As soon as I tried to send him the 
I entered the wrong local password. So, I deleted my wallet and showed him how the value was never really on my phone and could easily be recovered with my seed phrase. Honestly, he will probably lose his seed phrase and those 164 will be gone forever, but when he starts his junior year of Calculus maybe he will see the connection between math and crypto. I may have planted the seed for him to change the finance world one day.
