Let's suppose that each day you call 5 of your blockchain friends, each days you take note about people contact you to exchange pokemon card.
You have to inform your friends about pokemon cards transactions, but you also have to take care about your friends pokemon transactions about people that contact them. After you take all transaction and put them into the latest nike air boxe you receive.
You tell your friends whats about in the box and send them another box with the same content.
You can't find another copy of thing that in the box.
You try to send copy of the box, but your friend sent you boxes that are bigger of yours, you don't have time to sent bigger boxes than them, so you accpet them.
After all, you start to question you about the purpose of all of that because you bought the latest tesla brain chip and you still sent smaller boxes than your friends.
You become cray, you start playing to monopoly and enjoy time with people, real people.
So, You ask your parents for time in front of the latest apple screen because your dopamine is close to zero, but they tell you things about a simple concept call "real life".
You don't understand and go to bed just to forget all this journey, and restart all necessary task about blockchain tomorrow.
