We need to focus on this truth. Degens are a problem which solves itself. This is the advantage of an unforgiving & unregulated free market. #truthchain 
 Why degen the system when the degens will eventually expose themselves? 
 and then miners will get used to false profits and when it dries up they will try to force change to bitcoin not because its better for bitcoin but because its better for their profits 
 Bitcoin Mining will continue to be a volatile marketplace. Bitcoin : fiat value will continue to cycle during the death throes of the legacy financial system. Degens will degen. We should never make changes to Bitcoin to prevent degenerate behavior. Miners will overextend themselves. There will be winners and losers. This is the free market we deserve. People getting wrecked is evidence that the market is free from regulation and interference. 
 Well, problems do not solve themselves. Unless this is not much of a problem. Maybe if we all use the opportunity to start heating homes with miners, maybe high tx fees are more fun than a problem?
