Today I've got a little refresher course geared a bit more towards crypto beginners. If you're a crypto expert, it still might be worth watching. Tried to pack a lot of jokes into this one.

Doug, thx for being on steem. Lwt us know some time what you like about it and what you think its weaknesses are.
Also would love to know what would be needed for you to invest i to the ecosystem and buy steem and power it up.
Just a thought about the government doing 'irrational stuff'...
Banning online poker was perfectly rational for them (or at least it could have been.. if somebody lobbied them to do it, then there isn't much downside and they pocket the money).
I don't really see it as governments behave irrationally.. it's just that they don't act in your and my best interest. (They seem perfectly rational when we remember that they're acting in their own interests.)
And I don't think banning Bitcoin does much good for them.
For all we know government interests are already involved in mining and contributing to the weird issues there, or trying to manipulate it in some other way.
A hard nose "ban" can easily backfire and just draw attention to it, and/or weaken the perception of that government by its citizens, especially if cryptocurrency proves to be a benefit to all the other countries where it's legal.
In general I think they'll try to work with it to hang on to some pieces of control however they can rather than put their energy into stopping it.
Or Cliffs: I don't think it's some kind of random thing where MAYBE they'll just do X.. generally they'll do whatever is rationally correct for them
Fuck CNBC
Fuck Craig Grant
Fuck Crypto Nick
Fuck Trevon James
Fuck Bitconnect
Shout out to Satoshi
Definitely entertaining.
HAHA... Doug, you somehow can make a video about crypto funnier then most comedians best material. Keep up the good work!
PS, do a crypto happy hour with @cryptobobby damnit...

Please Doug, explain what the hell this"public key" really represents in the real life everyday world!
You should protect your public key and tell everyone your private key, isn't it obvious? ;)
I finally got it. Thankyou! ;)
Great post man! really helpful for the newbies! Keep up the amazing work!
With love from India <3
Funny crypto.

Love these videos. So funny yet informative. Love the humor!
Thanks for the new video Doug. I discovered your videos on YouTube a couple of months ago and have been watching religiously since I found you.
I have dabbled in crypto since 2016 but have only recently have had the extra capital to start investing properly. Your videos have been a great help to me. Thank you!

Doug, why do you think increasing the blocksize is not a sustainable solution?
There have been research that up to 1GB blocks can be run on relatively inexpensive computers.
Data storage is getting less and less expensive over time.
There is research coming out for 1TB blocks.
"I'm not really sure what a public key is" why is it so funny every time!
You may want to add "Don't even listen to what I have to say"
Such an informative post. Thank you for the information because I've only been into cryptos this past year so I'm still learning every day.
I just finished a post that discusses my journey to adopting a vegan lifestyle. It might interest you, check it out if you get the opportunity. Thanks!!

I love your content @dougpolkcrypto
I actually was never big into poker, so I am just learning of your existence over the last couple of weeks since you have became active on Steemit. Since then you have quickly became my favorite person to watch crypto videos/news from. I love your comedic relief and cojones on calling out people who deserve to be put on blast.
I just added you to the front page of my free Crypto Guide, and made you the top recommended YouTuber on my guide. I also changed my most trusted news source from CoinDesk to CoinCentral. I hope this helps generate you some new followers, because you seriously deserve even more recognition.
