Crypto is the biggest pyramid scheme ever created.

I can live in my home - it can devalue by 50% - and I don't care.

I can drive my truck - it can devalue by 50% and I don't care

I can grow food on my farmland and it can devalue by 50% and I don't care

I can get dividends on my stocks and they can lose 50% of their value - I don't care

If I had BTC or any other crypto - I'd sell that shite right now and buy something that's real and stop being a child with wild fantasies about being rich.

What about owning gold and devaluing by 50%, would you care?

What about owning stocks that don't pay a dividend devaluing by 50%, would you care?

Cable, you assume that there's no utility to owning these coins without selling.

There are many crypto projects. Don't lump them all together. Yes, some are scams, but others have real utility.

Like with any investment, people will sometimes hold the asset to speculate on future value. I don't see why you have a problem with that.

Actually the reverse is true. Folks should be looking to load up in the near future for the next bull run.

And as both the Canadian and US government has proven, they can freeze all of these assets if they decide you’re an enemy of the state.

I’m pretty sure just being on this site gets you red-flagged, so good luck.
