Welcome to Ground zero of the WRIST FIRST movement

Many years ago, I recommended that all WNs buy as much BTC as they could (it cost 14 USD back then) because an opportunity like this wouldn't come around again, likely.

Today, I'm going to make a similar reco... invest in the idea that Watches are going to replace Mobile Phones in the 'supply chain' most Murkins care about. Calling the Techno-Aryans of the Crust:

@Charles Silvius Haddock

Here's the reason. Apple shook up the internet back in the late Aughties, and this eco system is getting long in the tooth. Mobile tech is Web 2.5 and NO ONE knows what's next. But I think I do.

If you are a tech worker at any company, you are tired of SSO and signins and security. MFA is a thing and you probably get SMS texts or otherwise need to use an 'Authenticator App' on yer sail phone. Now, about that 'Apple Watch'. You use it, NFT / Silicon Valley types right? 10 or 20 times a day it gives you notifications? Are you a BAPist Male or Gamergate fitness fan? That arrives on your 'fitnesse watch' doesn't it.

Well, SHIT. You've ditched your wallet (except for paying 100+ for an RFID blocking card case to protect your 'debit or credit' amirite?) .... and tbh you are SICK of protecting pulling out your phone to pay for everything... amirite? So what did you do? You enabled your FITNESS TRACKER (on your wrist) to allow payments. AMIRITE?

So here you are in the drive-thru, in the FIRST WORLD and how do you pay... you don't 'tap a card' or 'pull out our mobile like it's still 1990s cool'... you PAY WITH YOUR WRIST. Yes you do. IT does this all day anyway. It's what the geeks are going to build NEXT.

GPS device, fitness tracker, payments... all on your wrist. And if you 'need to MFA' (everyone will)... it vibrates and gives you a code. Or whatever.

You will never make money better than this, unless you followed my advice and got in on BTC early.

Mobile First... Wrist First... Fists or Knuckles first... you decide.

Techie reaction: having to pull out your mobile phone to pay is SO embarassing.

Female reaction: they are afraid of dropping their wallet or phone and LOVE paying with their watch.

You might not be good with women but I am. This battle is over.

Keep your sail phone in your purse and join the winning side.

So how would you recommend people profit off of this by being early adapters? Buying stock? Working for a company that makes wrist watches?
People who are trying to figure out what Web 3 looks like (NFTs? Elf-maidens with flashing lights for crowns like SBF's chick?) need to think about mobile tech being wearable and how mobile phones will be used in that world.

Wearables are a half-way house to just implanting RFID chips, as if you were a pet or cattle.
