Space Shares?! Cor Blimey!
Right so I was having a lovely cup of tea with Teddy when suddenly BAM! This news pops up about Robinhood. Not the one with the arrows mind you. Apparently they’re giving away bits of space rockets and talking computers! Like finding a tenner in your old coat but it's shares. Shares of SpaceX and OpenAI whatever they are.
Europe Gets All the Fun
Now here's the rub. It's all happening in Europe. Europe! Can you believe it? They get the space shares and I'm stuck here trying to make toast without setting off the smoke alarm. It's not fair is it? Where's Teddy going to invest?
Tokenized? Is That Like Bean ified?
They call 'em 'tokenized' shares. Sounds a bit like when I tried to 'tokenize' my car with extra locks and alarms. Didn't quite work. But apparently it means anyone can buy them even if they're not super rich. Equality for everyone just like when I queue jump to get the last Mr. Blobby ice cream.
Five Euros? That's Like a Whole Bag of Jelly Beans!
And get this they're giving away five whole Euros of this space stuff to people who sign up! Five Euros! That's enough for a whole bag of jelly beans! Or maybe a small teddy bear for Teddy. Decisions decisions…
American Blues... and Beans
But hold on America can't join in. Apparently there are rules and regulations. Like when I tried to drive my Mini inside a department store. Didn't end well. They say it's a 'major barrier'. I know a major barrier it's trying to explain why I painted my flat entirely in emulsion paint.
Crypto What Now?
Something about crypto staking and blockchain and layers. Sounds awfully complicated. I'd rather just stick to what I know: fumbling with keys getting stuck in traffic and painting things strange colours. But hey if it means more jelly beans for everyone then good for them! Just don't forget about me (and Teddy) when you're all flying to the moon!
