I’m curious about efforts to integrate crypto into smaller towns and communities I live in Brownwood Texas and I am astounded by the majority of people here don’t even know what a cryptocoin is or how to use it or access it at all. What can I do to be more equipped to broadening people’s understanding of crypto in general?? And how do I go about being funded or added to make that happen in my community I’ve got some ideas but no backing yet.
