RE: Bursting at the seams

in #cryptocurrency6 years ago

I'm sure I've said this before, I'm actually a crypto enthusiast and want to see it flourish and grow and I hope it does. I probably care more about crypto than most of the people on here !

The difference is, I want an anonymous means of peer to peer wealth transfer outside the regulation of banks and governments, whereas everyone else doesn't give a shit about it, to them it's only a means to make a quick buck, get rich quick (lol, are they in for a shock).

Speculation has completely ruined crypto for now. In order for it to work properly and be used as an actual currency then the price needs to stabilise, so all the speculators should just fuck off and leave it alone.

The irony is, the price won't rise unless the mainstream financial industry gets involved, and it won't get involved because it's too unstable ! Talk about a catch-22...

That's just my views anyway, I love crypto but it got ruined by greedy assholes who don't care about it. Until everyone leaves it alone it'll almost certainly remain on the fringes. I look forward to the day when everyone drops it, becomes stable, and can be used for it's original purpose as a means of transaction.

So we both want crypto to do well, just for entirely different reasons :-)

Sort:  

Not at all! Sure I want to get rich from crypto, of course I do. But I would rather see crypto take down governments. That's a bigger win for me!

I'm a crypto fan, I want to see crypto do well.

But more important to me than the performance of cryptocurrencies in the short-term is what they stand for, and more specifically, what they stand against!

Cryptocurrencies stand against centralisation. They stand against government control and regulation.
