I am. That's why I've stayed away from ponzi schemes based on worthless non commodity digital assets destined to implode and focused on actual commodities that will still have value when speculative markets like crypto inevitably implode

Crypto and Bitcoin are not the same at all. And I hope you take the time to learn about what money is and why it works. I get why people with an extremely shallow (and crypto tainted) view only see a “ponzi” or think it’s all fluff with nothing behind it, but it’s anything but. Gold is decent, but utterly failed as sound money, understanding why makes the need for something like Bitcoin far more clear. The simple reality is that Bitcoin is a more reliable, vastly more functional, and genuinely global money with the benefits of gold’s scarcity and verification, but without its substantial centralizing risk and physical limitations. Good luck to you, but Bitcoin isn’t going anywhere, it will keep growing and proving its case. One day when the crypto speculative bullshit has dried up and the fiat debt cycle has run its course, Bitcoin will still be here and it will be ever more deeply embedded into the internet infrastructure, and you’ll pause to take another look. There’s no rush, it’ll be here when you are ready to dig deeper than the article you read or the headline you saw in your feed.

Been in Bitcoin for 12 years and it’s don’t nothing but grow. I’ve had conversations with people like you literally 100s, maybe thousands of times honestly. The more they learned the less they sound like you. If you think you know something different, or maybe you know how to break Bitcoin, then please share it with me. I’m more interested than you likely believe. But I get the feeling you couldn’t explain the first thing about #Bitcoin. If you know something I don’t, happy to chat about it. Open invitation. 😁
