Man, after all of that we sort of agree. Haha. What we’re currently doing with it is dumb. But the technology (hell yeah there’s value in the blockchain! :)) underneath the mess and failings of human nature is, to me, cryptocurrency. It’s an innovation, and if the current global economic problems continue on their current trajectory, it may be a revolution. I know that sounds kind of cheesy, but to me, why not throw 5% of my paycheck at it? It’s cool to watch the space grow. capitalist markets weed out the scammers pretty quickly, and if they don’t, the government intervenes.

It is good to learn where the oppositions come from. You’re right. This is why I’m on Reddit, these discussions. I appreciate your contributions to this one!

Heck yeah man we always have to strive to find some kind of middle ground. We all offer different perspectives and I know i have bias from my own experiences, not that I haven't had pleasant interactions in the crypto space as well. We all want financial security and accountability for the people with power and influence, and maybe crypto will play a role in a new system. Fingers crossed man. Good luck out there
