Boeing might be in trouble right now but they still have orders, they still make money, pay a dividend and in some period of time people will start flying again airlines will buy planes and Boeing's stock will rise, the problem with crypto, or any other currency is the value is solely based on perception of value, there is no bottom for a currency which is why you would never 'invest' in a currency normally, you might look to trade on its short term fluctuations or if it was stable park your wealth in it while looking for an investment to move it to, and that's with a Government backed currency where you could reasonably expect them to defend the price, crypto doesnt even have this, any crypto could lose all value and cease to be a 'thing' in fact it is certain that in a year or two most cryptocurrency's will have disappeared, what you and others are betting on right now is which, if any, survive.

that is not a fact or certain...you were saying similar things 4 or 5 years ago
