I was wondering why there are so few posts on here bragging about the potential of crypto currency riches.

I guess I won't see anymore let's prepare for the Metaverse threads. 

Always thought that whole thing was more of a hoax than a genuine investment opportunity. 

Came across these few news items today:

It might not be done yet. I'm guessing the crypto network has to rebooted like a cable box.😁😎

I have not been paying much attention to the crypto space in a long time. Over a year ago I spent time researching it and ultimately purchased both Ethereum and Bitcoin, bith are down a full 50%.  I purchased it as a learning exercise with no intention to sell it in the short term.  I have no hope of recovering my "lost" money in the short term.  I did not "invest" enough that a total loss will make a difference to me.

 

I did intend to buy an NFT, to actually go through the process of transacting with my bit coin to just go through the process, but there was literarily nothing that interested me enough to spend my crypto on...

 

There we plenty of people who got in at the right time and sold at the right time, who made money, but there was too much hype around the space to make me comfortable that it wasn't anything else than hype.   

 

Crypto is far too complicated for mass adoption.  Most people keep their money in exchanges which makes no sense, to me, if you understand crypto... sure it is easier, but you expose yourself to a lot more risk.

 

The metaverse is different. There are actually many practical use cases for it and it does not take a genius to get involved.  The only thing that bothers me is one or two companies owning the the metaverse. In much the same way that a handful of companies run the WWW today

Glad to be at a point in life where I don't need riskier investments or the metaverse.  I'll leave that to the younger folks.😁😎

There are a few who always approached this with both eyes open.

Maybe this industry will rebound in the future. But I will always consider it an escape hatch for some really criminally minded folks.

Crypto may benefit China in what I believe is a coming sea war with the U.S.

Or worse, it will ease the worries of cartel members who worry about their funds being seized.

 

I knew it was a scam all along.

All "crypto currency" is, is a trap to get you in not only financial but LEGAL trouble.

Look at the name "crypto".

A crypt is a GRAVE
