Blockchain Technology Now Confusing Grandmas Everywhere, And They’re Turning It Into A New Knitting Group Trend

"It’s immutable, dear," says Marge, 78, as she logs her stitch count onto a physical chalkboard she calls her "node." The trend is spreading faster than a dropped stitch, with retirement homes now holding "Proof of Wool" workshops. Because nothing says decentralized finance like arguing over who gets dibs on the lavender alpaca fiber.
