We see loads of experts and analysts on the internet speaking both for and against cryptocurrencies. On a personal level, I am very optimistic about this issue; but let's face it, those of us who are like that, the reality is that we have no idea if everything is going well or not, or if cryptocurrencies will succeed in the end or not.
My optimism is indifferent to whatever happens
Regardless of what ends up happening with the price of crypto in the market, I believe on them fervently. If I'm wrong, well, I'll still be poor; but if I'm right, I'll surely end up having a lot of money one day. Who knows, I may not become a millionaire thanks to crypto, but I may end up making a very good profit with it.
And I know everything that it is neccesary to happens to Bitcoin and cryptos have going for them to be successful in the future, I know it very well; that's why I also know how difficult the path he has to travel is, and that whatever happens in that sense, everything will tend to happen in the long term; so it is very important that we have economic liquidity to be able to take advantage of the profit opportunities that will be presented along the way.
Unfortunately, on a personal level I do not have much economic liquidity, so my chances of making a profit or great wealth even in the scenario that cryptos succeed in the end (which I do believe will happen), is quite unlikely.
The same thing happens to me with Hive
I have no idea if Hive will rise to the top or if it will fail, but regardless, I am here because I believe in cryptocurrency as a technology and as a means of payment, and in Hive as a social platform that works within the framework of Web 3.0.
Again, I have no idea if Hive will be successful in the end, in a few years, but I don't need to know, because I'll support Hive anyway.
Because I like Hive, I like the concept, I like it as a means of payment and I like that here I can be myself, something that I cannot achieve in any other social network today.
Nobody really knows what is going on in the market
And let's not be fooled either, because no one really knows what's going on in the market (well, maybe the whales, but only them), and that's why I'm not in crypto because some guru or expert is speaking in favor of them; I am in crypto because I believe in cryptos, I want to believe in cryptos, and I choose to believe in their potential; and only time and the market will tell if I am right or wrong.
Because the truth is that when I see people saying that they know exactly what is going to happen with the price of bitcoin or any other crypto, it makes me laugh. I mean those kinds of people who tell you to the last penny that the crypto is going to go up and the exact time when that will happen...
And it makes me laugh, because I swear that what Matthew McConaughey's character said to Leonardo DiCaprio's character in the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" comes to mind. He told him something like that no one knows exactly what's going on in the market, and any semblance of certainty about it is pixie dust.
The truth is that he was quite right, there is nothing safe in anything related to cryptos, but even so, we all want to be within the market, because we sense that they are much more than what they currently seem. Time will tell us if we are right or not.
