Go ahead and discuss. I'm not criticizing anyone. It was merely an expression of surprise. I'll just quietly back out and leave you all to it.
I love to read this thread for similar reasons I keep an eye on the EA NHL threads... Because both are good concepts but turn into terrible products and I am trying to keep an eye on them in hopes they turn around and become something I am into.

I only have a few posts in here, but just about all of them are pressing people like dino about WHY crypto is going to go up or down. Others have already pointed out many of the flaws crypto still faces to get to mainstream use, so I am mostly trying to understand from crypto supporters WHY this is a good investment. Every time I am left response-less. Its just 'buy low, sell high bro' which to me shows it is indeed gambling. And hey, I respect dino for getting to rub everyone's nose in $1500 comment. But there are tons out there similarly pumping it up for no reason other than they are trying to get in at the beginning of a pyramid scheme.

So for me, I continue to read and occasionally chime in, because I am hoping things get better. Or at least different. So far though, I haven't seen much indication.
