That reminds me of a line from the song Monday's Experts:
: Pity you can't put a bet on at the finish of a race!

It wasn't obvious that we were in this environment. We could just as easily have been in the one where you could have bought 10k worth, waited it for it to double but found it halved instead, kept waiting only for it to halve again, and maybe collapse completely.

Blockchain has a bright future, but cryptocurrency is a dead end.

"Blockchain has a bright future, but cryptocurrency is a dead end."

Well I don't know about that.
My Linear popped today. LINA
I paid .104698 cents on the 12 Feb.
You could've still bought it for 12 cents yesterday but now its just over 27 cents
How many of your investments doubled in value today?

The proofs in the pudding.

All I have to do is watch a couple of youtube channels and they will tell me the coins that have the best fundamentals in the crypto space going forward.
It's not rocket science, thats where I was told about Linear.

Try it: You can either get virtually free money or miss the opportunity:
Doesn't really bother me, if you do buy some you'll only push the price up further on me before I can buy more.
I'll win either way.

A few things happened last year.
At the start of COVID Bitcoin and Ethereum were really cheap.
You had Pelosi advertising Trump wouldn't go, and the COVID and race riots were the things that would unseat him.
Democrats winning raised the prospects of large amounts of stimulus money used to buy bitcoin and other cryptocurrency.
Ethereum futures started trading on the CME
VISA began to sopport cryptocurrency and Elon Musk promoted it.

So yes the writing was on the wall to anyone who was looking.
You could've bought Bitcoin for 5k or Ethereum under $100
What's Bitcoin today - over 58k, ETH is over $1800

It's not a zero sum game,
Moreso the contrary - everyone wins, everyone gets rich.
Bitcoin and Crypto only had a market cap of 350Bn back then, now it's like 2 trillion.
- Plenty of money to go around.

- And that's why I have 4 computers and 18 monitors in my loungeroom.

Every nation got poorer during COVID but every person that bought crypto got wealthier.
