While we continue to wait for legislation to be enacted domestically so our banks and financial institutions can actively participate in crypto, elsewhere at least one central bank is discussing hyperbitcoinization.
I used to wonder the same thing about crypto, tbh. For the longest time it just looked like internet gambling, but once I started trading and actually following the space, I got why people are hyped. There’s way more potential, especially with new tech that lets you control your own coins, move money fast, and even trade across different blockchains, stuff you just can’t do with stocks or regular ETFs. I still keep most of my cash in classic investments, but having some in crypto feels like being part of something bigger, especially with instant transfers and self-custody. These days, a lot of traders roll with browser platforms like Banana Pro for quick swaps and portfolio tracking, makes things way less overwhelming when you’re just starting out too.
So who's being burned by the crypto crash? Be honest.
As time goes on, my belief that Crypto is not an asset is being confirmed. It is a pyramid scheme. There is no money there. It's just a way to get a greater fool to pay more for nothing than you did. Invest in productive endeavors that do not rob people dumber than you and you'll be fine.
