“A long enough timeline”

Dude crypto isn’t even 20 years old and didn’t hit the mainstream until the last 19 years.

You don’t even know why crypto goes up or down other than hype. There’s no balance sheet. No profits. No product. Nothing. Just a bunch of gambling addicts waiting to defend it because they know their just only keep value as long as long as it has positive press. How is it not just a pyramid scheme?
