Crypto is such a scam, why I invested in bobbleheads

Good. I'm a late-comer and need to average a lot of stuff down.

yeah all you can do is find the projects you believe have king term value and DCA through the downturn. I’m a little worried about potential layoffs/recession so I’m done with big purchases and will stick to the steady smaller buys though the bear market while making sure the emergency fund is secure.

If it aint ETH/BTC or a core service on ETH like LINK... Do not hold lol

I’m 75% BTC 15% ETH and can’t see that going down. I dabble with LINK, ADA, and SOL. They used to occupy more of the portfolio but obviously have collapsed in value more than ETH/BTC have.
I stake the ADA and have delegated the SOL so I’ll just ride it out with those.

Once ETH can be unstaked, expect another leg down. It's not something to sit in for a while. That also means it will drag down many other tokens. Anyone know a time frame on this?
SOL was my baby, but the chain has stopped so many times that I don't want to touch it until I hear some good news on it. If anyone hears changes are finally made to stabilize the chain, please let us know.
BTC looks like it's ready for another leg down which will pull everything else down with it.
Discretionary spending is being chewed up with massive inflation. It's going to take a while to dig ourselves out of this hole.

ETH will be released from staking in batches over several months. I'm not convinced we'll see a massive selloff, but if we do it'll be a slow bleed

I have 10% of my paycheck going to BTC. Outside of that I’m periodically scooping up Radix and staking that. Looks like BTC might move another leg down which I’m fine with. Will keep DCA.

If I had an investment that declined almost 50% in under a year - I'd be rethinking some things. The crypto crowd isn't convincing anyone else that's not already in this scheme to buy into it. They're all just talking to each other at this point. A 13 year old kid advised me to buy crypto - 13. I've been making plays in the market for 30 years and a 13 year old that couldn't even define what EPS is is advising me to buy crypto. No thanks.

Then why are you in the cryptotalk thread?
Bookmark this post and check back in 5 years when ETH is up 5x from current ATH.
Many people have been in crypto for 5+ years and have been through multiple bear cycles such as this. I believe in the underlying tech and so I will continue to buy while we are getting discounted BTC + ETH.

The same reason I've followed shitty investments since I started playing the game. It helps you to learn so you don't frick up and make mistakes. One of first lessons I learned was if a lot of stupid people are in some investment - stay the hell away from it. I'm watching y'all - if I thought this bullshite was viable I'd be in it - it's not and I can tell by the level of discussion that goes on.

I realize this is the Money board, so that's probably the angle you're coming from. I don't know shite about traditional investment and I don't pretend to. I am a nerdy tech guy and I invest in crypto because I believe in the long-term effects I believe crypto will have globally.
So what discussion would you like to have? I believe in other threads you've mentioned the viability of cryptocurrency as currency, but what about other aspects of the tech that aren't purely about currency?
How about decentralized, permissionless, censorship-resistant, sybil-resistant social media, where you own your posts and can take them to any platform that uses that protocol?
Or.. How about a decentralized music streaming app where fans can buy an artist's albums, and if they have the album in their wallet they get a % of the artist's monthly revenues for that album distributed to them? Artists build community and revenue streams and not solely reliant upon record labels.
How about a decentralized, permissionless VC fund where people choose what treasury funds actually go to, and they get % of revenue from interest payments of funded projects?
List goes on.

In a thread titled Cryptotalk? No way.

This hasn’t been true at any point in the last decade, and despite your prognostications based on encounters with children, I have trouble believing it will suddenly become true over the next decade.

Crypto is about to have a slow bleed to irrelevancy. It had a nice run but it was just a fad.
Posted on 6/12/22 at 10:03 am to Fox McCloud
okay; thanks for the insider info. I’m sure a lot of time and effort went into that analysis.
Posted on 6/12/22 at 10:19 am to Ross
It’s about equivalent to the amount of thought 90% of crypto investors gave when they bought it.

to some extent the crypto community did this to themselves with extremely poor marketing. Promises of 100x gains with the latest shitcoin of the week did a lot of damage to public perception.
However, those that fail to differentiate pump and dumps with projects that actually provide utility or a function that the world could actually benefit from are out of touch. The adoption curve has only steepened with every halving cycle and eventually people will interface with some of these tokens in a daily basis without thinking twice about it.
