I'm not saying I don't buy crypto because it crashed at this point in time. I'm saying continuously over a very long period of time I haven't bought crypto, and that's based on the information I have had over that continual period of time. Nothing has changed for me with this crash except that some people who I think are wrong are going to shut up now. (edit: I dream - I'm sure they'll find a way to tell me they're just buying the dip).

I'm saying I don't buy Bitcoin because at no point in the last few years have I seen it be used for anything other than speculation. There are no dividends. There are no voting rights in anything. There is no actual asset aside from a number that a blockchain says you own. It's like owning a share of a company that doesn't actually exist. The only upside is I can buy it and then get lucky and sell it for more than I paid for it, to someone who will almost certainly eventually get unlucky when things crash because it is and always has been useless. I see it as being no different than roulette, a game I also don't play.

It's a fascinating technology on which to build a digital currency, but rounding down, currency seems to be none of the actual usage.
