In the town where I live we have a guy who delivers fruits and vegetables to your door. He has a little truck. Nothing professional.
I remember fruit and vegetables being delivered at our home when I was very young but then it kinda disappeared.
I always thought it probably must have stopped being profitable.
Not a spot on them
But this guy (he's 29) must have thought that niche needed filling again and he's very successful. And for me, it's simple why. I always buy from him because he has the best quality fruits I know. Beats the supermarket any day.
He's been coming around for years now and you do build up some sort of relationship together. He knows what I do for a living for instance (I work IT).
Today, he asked me out of the blue if I knew something about Ethereum and Bitcoin. I couldn't believe my ears. My fruit guy!
My fruit guy wants to invest in Ethereum....We are either in a paradigm shift of mainstreamness or the beginning of a bubble in Crypto.
I don't think he had a clue what Ethereum was.
I'm still very happy about my ETH sell @$365.
If the markets go even lower than this I will use the Fiat from that sell to start buying back.
What is going well is my logo design job offer. I had a lot of nice responses and offers already.
For those who missed it. I'm offering max. 250 SBD for a personalized Steemit logo.

Why don't you offer him to pay your fruits in ETH? ;)
That's a fun idea!

Hopefully Ethereum will recover, a lot of cryptos are in red now, it is not necessarily bad
It will recover but can't fight a downtrend sadly.
Yeah, when the fruit guy starts asking about ether, I think it's fair to say we'll have a bubble coming in the next 6 months to a year. Something similar happened with my brother-in-law concerning Bitcoin several weeks ago. He knows I'm heavy into finance and just out of the blue asked me if I knew anything about bitcoin. Some interesting times lay ahead.
Red is the summer's favorite color for sure. It's been like this for as long as I can remember in stocks/commodities, I was wondering whether crypto would also wear this hat, it appears so. Good time to buy.
Really dig what you're doing by conducting your Logo business on Steemit. You walk the talk brother. Cheers!
Thanks, man! Good thing about summer is, plenty of other things to do instead of watching graphs :)
Great to received fresh fruits at your door step. Must of Crypto market are red. I think is a good time to buy. ETH is on my list to buy this summer.
If it goes a little lower, I'll be a buyer again.
ETH has had its high for this year but it will probably bounce back next year so it will be a good time to invest in the msssive dips coming up.
Great to see people that don't only know about BTC but other altcoins like ETH instead of being like most of my friends who only know about BTC.
Great to see you passing your crypto knowledge to get more people engaged.
Also seems like the admissions for your logo job is going well.
There are so many superb people with great portfolios
It's really great that you have somebody that comes by with a fruit truck .The closest thing I have two that is like the local vegetable stand they don't quite have the selection anymore that they use to either.
Yeah, It's really great! and his fruits are the best.
I always get super excited when someone (who I don't expect) knows/wants to know about crypto. I would tell him to wait on ETH though, it seems as with all these new ICO's being released on the platform it's pushing the price down.
Crypto is no longer a secret place, it is being adopted and promoted by masses, the future of crypto looks very bright. Bring your fruit man here on Steemit, you can support him though.....
Haha you know it's getting serious when the fruit guy starts asking about it!
I think more and more people will start talking about cryptocurrencies since they are becoming much more popular at a rapid pase. Every guy om the street will be talking about this in a year or two :)
Hopefully! If the masses are going to use Cryptocurrencies, the price will go up. But it's still a long way..
Today market is red but will soon rise up and will see everything green !
I'm waiting for that moment
Thank You for sharing @exyle
Always hold ;)
great post exyle
Market is very low yet time my all coins on bitterx is red!! Yet time.
Hello! ))
Thanks for the link to the logo, I missed))
i read a post yesterday that said its time to get out of crypto when your cab driver gives u advice on crypto, did not know time has come
I wis you luck with the logo design! I would prefer a retainer relationship rather than a production contract. I have some bad experiences with production contracts. A retainer allows for a simple clean exit.
Sorry, I intended to comment on the fruit guy and his question. People everywhere are becoming aware of crypto currency. I see this as a glimpse into the future.
My first thought when read that the fruit guy was asking about coins, was that we've reached a bubble. Then you mentioned it in the next paragraph.
When fruit peddlars, barbers and cabbies start talking crypto, the first bubble has been reached. Soon to be a buying opportunity.
winks@exyle i always enjoy your posts and article, i hope your food is as tasty as your articles on steemit?
great post as usual
No one knows what is going to happen in the future. Let's just do our best.
August news can either give huge boost for crypto or another small obstacle in our path to become mainstream.
<3
It will go up and down, nothing to worry about.
LOL! This proves that bitcoin and ethereum are actively gaining popularity. Nice to hear!
i recommend buy etherium in this time, wait a little months al multiply your earnings
Hardly anyone I know owns any crypto besides people on Steemit. Its not a bubble yet. Its self correcting. A lot of shit coins got pumped hard that should not have but this is the market. Most majors coins have seen a 50% re-tracement from peaks which means some short term bottom is near. Its def due for a big bounce at the least. Maybe we are seeing a longterm bottom soon then the rise back up but with the good fundamental coins like BTC, ETH, Steem.
Wow, I love little independent business people like that, and it really is all about the quality. Generally if they know a thing or two, as along as the quality is good their business will do well. And I find small independent businesses like this often have some of the best quality in their products. And so nice to hear that he's asking you about Bitcoin and ETH! I hope this means it's becoming mainstream :)
I totally love it that you buy fruit and vegetables from that guy! @exyle Well done!
Another day a Uber driver surprised me with the same question: What did I think of her investing in Bitcoin. I live in Brazil and these subjects here are much more distant from ordinary citizens...
Whether the fruit comes from your own garden?
It really does look very juicy to be made juice.
And this is really the writing that motivates me.
Please folow me, master
what a great story @exle! I love to know that we still can find people doing a job that is valuable and so important.. we are loosing contact, real contact.. and this guys is doing exactly what we need... Funny that he wanted to know about Ethereum and Bitcoin... You see.. the world is small.. Hope you shared some valuable info with him! I went trough you profile and thought it was very interesting! I am following you! :-)
I thought it was Taxi Drivers who if mentioned in passing an investment, it was time to sell. Turns out, 17 hours ago (or more whenever the fruit guy came), its the fruit guy. Give me a shout if he asked about any other alt coins (might need to adjust portfolio then) {smile}.
