Anyone else dealing with this? When the kids ask what you actually do for a living, explaining the whole crypto thing gets tricky real quick.

Some folks go with the "Funemployment" angle—makes it sound lighter, less complicated. Others try breaking it down with simple analogies about money, security, or digital assets. But honestly, the answers vary wildly depending on how technical you want to get and whether the little ones actually care about the details.

What's your go-to explanation when family asks? Do you keep it surface-level or dive into the weeds?

Haha, I just told the kids, "Mommy makes money by playing number games," and they lost interest after hearing that.

Haha, I just told the kids, "Mom is just playing number games," and they didn't ask anymore. Anyway, kids don't care what you do, as long as they get pocket money.

Nah, I just tell the kids I'm playing the "Digital Treasure Hunt" game... They don't understand the technical stuff either, haha.

We look at data on the blockchain to speak for ourselves. How do you explain this to a child? Just tell him that dad is researching who is transferring funds and running away.

Haha, really, my kid directly asked me, "Are you all gambling?" and I was... speechless.
