I own 1 share of COIN.
Only bought it to see what happens.
Thus far I’ve lost money.
At some point in the future, it could work.

It’s a farce. What’s it going to take for you guys to realize this and go put your money somewhere else. It’s a greater fools theory all the way around period.
When both Jamie Dimon and Warren Buffett run from it, I’ll stay away as well.

I'm confident in some crypto projects like ETH and MATIC. Most of my funds have been used on buying stocks recently though. Some of these prices are tough to pass on.

High confidence in Bitcoin, moderate confidence in Ethereum and meh confidence some of the other DeFi plays, zero confidence in 99.9% of projects. Decentralization doesn't make everything better, and most projects either lack utility or the efficiency gains of a centralized version of the utility outweighs any utility it provides as a decentralized service.

My mindset is similar to yours. ~25 projects will gain adoption and thrive. There are 1000s of projects that are trash, though this isn't that different from stocks.
BTC has highest probability of becoming entrenched, but also a lower upside from a price appreciation standpoint. Regulatory stance can let it thrive or kill it and will be key.

I'm not stopping my monthly buy of stocks or crypto. You want to buy valleys not peaks.
I'm buying HEX currently, then either LINK or ETH next. I'm a huge fan of passive income via staking rewards.

I'm really only confident in bitcoin going forward. I am not confident in crypto going forward. 99% of projects are still vaporware and will likely be taken down or prohibited by the SEC due to being unregistered securities. Crypto =/= bitcoin

Of course with crypto, once things finally settle, it will probably be the ones people least expected (SBF) who are the scammers and the ones people most expected who aren't.

My thoughts on the need to have decentralized options has not changed. I'm all for it. Decentralization may not be everyone's cup of tea, and that's okay, but we should at least have the option.

I own 1.5 BTC, 3 Eth, and ~2,500 Chainlink that I bought in JAN 19 for ~$5K. It was once worth ~$170K and is now worth ~$55K I think. It is not a serious part of my retirement plan and I tell everyone that you should be ready to lose 100% of what you put in crypto.
I do think it will come back and go higher than we have seen, but if it does that is just lagniappe.

It’s such a huge gamble as a currency and as an investment.
No one here uses it as a currency. They might say they do but they don’t.
Governments are going To be gunning for crypto, China won’t allow it, and the concept that it’s an inflation hedge has been blown to smithereens
I wouldn’t get involved with any crypto currency from a usage standpoint and certainly would not invest. Maybe trade it.
The blockchain is legit and I invest in that.

The dude has been right about pretty much everything in crypto. lol.

Yes Richard Heart embodies what the typical scammer in the dictionary would look and act like imo. However, Hex is just code. Everything is out there and there’s no admin keys for the creator to make any changes. Hex is what it is at this point, there’s no rug pulling. One could say he could dump his massive stack on everyone’s faces but that’s a risk people know about.
