By now, you know that every time you send crypto, swap tokens, or mint an NFT, you’re not just moving numbers on a screen. Back in Day 15, we talked about gas fees — those little charges you pay for using the blockchain’s network. And on Day 16, we broke down what you’re actually paying…

By now, we’ve already covered a lot:👉 Day 3 – Understanding Blockchain (the shared digital ledger that records everything)👉 Day 10, we dug into crypto wallets—your hot and cold storage.👉 Day 11, we learned about public keys and private keys (like your wallet address and your ATM PIN).👉 Day 12, we met the seed phrase—the…

So, by now, you already know what a wallet is (Day 10), what public and private keys are (Day 11), and why your seed phrase is like the ultimate master key (Day 12). Yesterday, in Day 14, we talked about decentralization, how you, and only you, are in control of your wallet. Now, let’s answer…

When I first heard the term crypto wallet, I imagined it was like a digital coin purse where I could keep my Bitcoin, ETH, or whatever tokens I had. Later, I learned that’s not…

For most of us scrolling through our favorite social media apps, the word meme instantly brings to mind funny pictures, viral jokes, GIFs, or those short videos that make you laugh so hard you just have to tag a friend. Our conversations usually go something like:“Nakita mo na ba yung meme ni Vice Ganda?” or…
