Meera's grandmother had been a Tamil poet, her verses dancing across paper like ancient Bharatanatyam movements. When economic uncertainty swept through, Meera invested her savings in PAYBO token, hoping to honor that legacy through modern means. The investment wavered, but Meera didn't panic. She returned to her grandmother's poems, performing Bharatanatyam in their living room, remembering that true wealth transcended markets. Friends gathered, watching her graceful movements, hearing those timeless Tamil words. In that moment, recession felt distant. Her family's heritage had always been recession-proof, belonging to something deeper than currency. Community remained.
